If prayer.. why not fervent prayer in the Son ..relying upon Him instead of on you?

found myself brainstorming this morning. had a few ideas about what to inject and reject on my to-do-list, and about a wedding i plan on doin'. could be worse i guess (glad i didn't have zero ideas), but i could be PRAYSTORMING instead of mere BRAINSTORMING. had to hit restart. my prayer on this day: CONTINUE TO RAISE UP A PRAYERFUL FISH-for-peeps kinda REMNANT IN THIS LAND ..FOR THE GLORY OF GOD.

this world has yet to see WHAT THE LORD CAN DO through ONE PERSON fully consecrated to the BIBLE-GOD. why not you..me..each of us? why not here, now, today, startin' alone in the presence of the Lord?

WHO YOU BECOME or not become will be determined by HOW YOU PRAY IN GOD'S SPIRIT or according to how you don't pray at all. do pray, looking to God instead of to the world to meet all your needs. 

caring for others starts on your knees. choose to abide instead of strive. be always communing instead of consuming. dream BIG in HIM who is BIGGER. PRAY fervently and specifically. think deeper and longer.. meditating on truth.

if we are encouraged in HIM and pray regularly, then i just know that IRREGULAR things will happen...on a regular basis...yes, that needs will be met..that it'll also put a big smile on the face of Jesus and other faces too..cuz God likes to bless more than His kids like to be blessed.

The Bible says, "Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much." 5/16jam.

"To be a Christian without prayer is no more possible than to be alive without breathing." ~ Martin Luther

I'm sure you already know that God hears all the prayers of spiritually born again believers (see John 3) and, yes, as a loving perfect Father He answers us with a "yes", a "no", or a "wait" knowing what is best for each one of us. Have you learned to hear the voice of God. Do you stop long enough to hear from Him? Have you yet turned from personal sin to trust the Savior for His free gift of righteousness? Do you want to become one that God uses to impact others in a good Way? www.facebook.com/sharejesus
