Prayer of David for repentance (Psalm 51)
The Lord’s Prayer (Matthew 7:9-13)
5. Final Word
The good life comes from a God life, and a God life is a life of prayer, a life in prayer and the life itself is a prayer.
When we live in prayer we live in communion with angels, and we live at peace with the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of the Living God. Whatsoever we might desire to have, God has already provided. In His infinite mercy He gave us his son Jesus. If the Lord gave us Jesus what could stop us from receiving good health, forgiveness of sins, and protection among other things that we might desire to have in our daily lives.
God has called us to an inheritance that is incorruptible, all we have to do is believe in Him, live in Him and let Him live through us, and all things shall be added unto us.
Lastly when we pray be mindful of 3 things
Thoughts in your mind – what are you thinking about before you pray and when you pray , are the thoughts on your mind of God or of man’s sinful nature , are these thoughts conducive for your discussion with God ? It is useful to always have a mind that meditates on God and His goodness , this will help make prayer more potent and effective
Desire of the heart – what is your heart desiring, is it in God’s will or the nature and character of Jesus. Our heart’s desires must always be in line with the will of the Father, as this is the greatest sacrifice we can make. Giving the Father your desires and your will is giving Him ultimate control over one’s life.
Know the feelings in your heart (emotions) – as you approach God in prayer what emotions are in your heart, and will they affect your prayer? Are you angry, sad, confused, excited, what emotion is ruling you and is it of God or is it of man’s sinful flesh?
When we take cognisance of these 3 things our prayers become more effective. Talking to God is different from talking to self. If our hearts are not in the right place, if our desires are not in line with God’s will, and if our emotions are not of God then we are practically talking to ourselves and not the King of Heaven.
God searches the heart, and His word says be ye Holy for He is Holy. As we approach Him in prayer let us ensure that we give our hearts, the desires of our hearts and our emotions to God. The more we strive to be pure in heart, the more we become like Him, the more we take after His nature and the more we become conscious in the spiritual realm.
Final word to you dear reader is from Matthew 7:15 – 23
Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. By their fruit you will recognise them. Do people pick grapes from thorn-bushes, or figs from thistles? Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus by their fruit you will recognise them.
Not everyone who says to me Lord, Lord will enter the kingdom of Heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day “Lord, Lord did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform miracles? Then I will tell them plainly, “I never knew you. Away from me you evildoers!”
May God guide us, and grant us the spirit of discernment in these dangerous days.
It is my hope and prayer that this book helps somebody in their prayer walk with God Almighty.
