How do we go about being able to pray in a way that is
effective?
Because God is our
Father we need to come to Him believing that we will recieve what we
are asking for.
But we can only
really do that if we know Him as our Father, and really know how much
He loves us.
Now because God is
Holy we can only know that love if we really want to be free from our
sins.
The wonderful
thing is that God is really ready to help us to confess our many sins
and through the Holy Spirit to gain victory over them bit by bit by bit.
So even if we are
a Christian and not just an unbeliever we often see prayers not
answered in the way we want them to be because we are not being honest
with God. Strangly enough an unbeliever knows that things are not right
and often comes to God in desperation, hiding nothing from Him and then
goes through a life changing experience from it.
So we are not to come to God with a demand list because that shows that
we do not trust God and we do not know His love.
Instead we need to come to Him honestly and in love for and with Him
and let the Holy Spirit guide our prayers.
When we start to pray in agreement with the Holy Spirit, we will see
our prayers being answered.
The amazing thing is we will enjoy praying when the Holy Spirit is
guiding us, and it will be what He is bringing to us that will be the
very things that we need.
So it is that prayer becomes a time of rejoicing and not a time of
seeming hard and boring activity.
So we notice that right in the middle of what is called the Lord's
Prayer we are instructed to forgive others their sins against us.
Wow! we say that is not fair they do not deserve to be foregiven. Then
if that is the case then we do not deserve to be foregiven either.
So the sooner we get rid of our demands and our unforegiveness the
sooner we will flow in prayers that are answered.
The sooner we learn patience and to trust God out of love, then the
easier we will find it even if we have to wait for the right time to
see them answered.
Then let us start thanking God for all He has done for us and is going
to do for us.
So before going to one of the prayer request links take time to be
honest with God and hide nothing from Him, and realize that He really
does love you and knows what is best for you.
Then enter into our world as a prayer warrior praying for others.
