Jeremiah 33:3 " Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not"
I was thinking about how that in this age everyone seems to be glued to their cell phone. It has become a part of our lives in so many ways we don't seem to be able to put them down. Call, texts, photos and file sharing, shopping and so much more are at our fingertips.
Our choir used to sing a song titled "Just A Little Talk with Jesus". I am reminded his line is never busy, it never goes to voice mail, He always answers. What a privilege we have to pray! and folks, we have never needed to pray any more than now in this world we are living in!
What is prayer? It is simply talking to God.
Why pray? Because the Lord knows better than we what we really need.
When to pray? The bible says to "pray without ceasing". At all times and in all circumstances.
How to Pray? Through confession ( I John 1:9 )
With Thanksgiving ( Psalm 100:4 )
wITH iNTERCESSION ( jAMES 5 :16 )
WITH pETITIONS ( lUKE 11:13)
WITH COMMUNION- wHEN YOU QUIT TALKING AND JUST LISTEN TO hIM
DON'T FORGET gOD'S PHONE NUMBER! AND DON'T JUST USE IT AS A 911 WHEN YOU ARE IN TROUBLE. hE LOVE TO TALK TO hIS CHILDREN EVERY DAY.
