Today's Focus: You must agree you do not know what to PRAY about, to pray RIGHT to get RESULTS!
Prayer is a divinely designed communication art and act through which humans can request for the WILL of GOD in Heaven to be done on Earth for them par time par situation. True!
Jesus Christ when teaching His disciples on how to pray, taught them to PRAY, our Father who art in Heaven, halloweth be your name, your Kingdom comes, your WILL be done on Earth as it is in Heaven. (Matthew 6:9,10).
Unfortunately, many genuine CHRISTIANS do not understand this bottom line or common denomination of PRAYER. Many pray day and night according to their own WILL, WISH and WANT. Therefore, the truth to be said, such Christians will not get their prayers answered by God. Never!
Apostle James revealed this truth, when he said that we receive NOT because we PRAY (ask) amiss, that we may consume it (the answer) upon our LUSTS. (James 4:2-5; 1 John 2:15-17; James 1:12-15).
This means that PRAYER is not to give you what you will, wish and want for yourself, but what God WILLS, WISHES and WANTS for you in Christ in this World. (Jeremiah 29:11-14).
Apostle John likewise confirmed this truth, when he said that this is the confidence we have in him, that if we ASK (pray) any thing according to His WILL, He hears us and if we know that He hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we HAVE the petitions that we desired of Him. Halleluyah! (1 John 5:14,15).
Now note, while our PEAYERS needs to be FERVENT (passionate), it must also be EFFECTUAL (purposeful) as well according to the Will, Wish and Want of God in Christ for us in this World for us to have our requests granted by our Loving and caring Father. (James 5:16-18).
Therefore, don't be deceived, before God will answer your PRAYER, he will look at your PRAYER through the eyes of His WILL for you in Christ in this World. True!
That is why Apostle Paul counselled you and I to live right and renew our mind to know and prove the good, acceptable and perfect WILL of God for us par time par situation. This you and I should do first before requesting for things from God. (Romans 12:1,2).
Interestingly, ONLY the Holy Spirit knows the MIND (Will, Wish and Want) of the Father concerning us par time par situation as revealed in 1 Corinthians 2:9-16. Therefore, you must AGREE you don't know what to PRAY about, to pray RIGHT as revealed in Romans 8:26, 27 to humbly depend on the Holy Spirit to pray the WILL of God, the Father, within you and through you par time par situation, to get RESULTS. True!
Today's Focus from Scripture:
Likewise the SPIRIT also HELPS our infirmities: for we know NOT what we should PRAY for as we ought: but the SPIRIT itself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And He that searches the hearts knows what is the MIND of the SPIRIT, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God. (Romans 8:26; 27).
Take note, take heed!
Prayer Direction: According to today's revealed truth, pray as you are led by the Spirit of God.
God bless you.
