For the past 3 weeks the Lord has really been challenging me on prayer. I realized that the Lord just does not want a simple “quiet time” with me but he requires me to be in fellowship with him all the time. I obviously cannot do this on my own, that I need to draw my strength from God. Jesus says he is the bread of life and we need to part take of him, which simply means to have a relationship with him where he is the source of our lives.
Prayer needs to be a lifestlye and going to a prayer meeting is not enough. Anytime we have alone we could spend it with God. Once we start to seek the Lord, we then begin to grow closer to God and he starts to reveal to us things of the spirit. I’ll be honest I’m not yet there but I trust the Lord has seen my desire and he will give me the Grace to fulfill it.
The only way revival will come is if as Christians we individually start to fellowship with God. Its time we came out of our busy schedules and realized that Christ must be the first priority in our lives, before our business, school work, friends, family and yes, even our church responsibilities. Remember, we are only stewards of what the lord gives. Amen
