PRAYING TOGETHER AS A FAMILY
As we continue on our journey through life, we will be required to face even greater challenges and more rigorous difficulties. But we are to be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power, by putting on Christ and standing firm by abiding in Him, knowing that His grace is sufficient for the greatest challenges we may meet, and being fully assured God is the one Who is going with us, for He has promised, "I will never leave You nor forsake You. "Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.” Our United Prayer:
Thank You, loving Father, that You never change. Help us to abide in Christ, knowing that His grace is sufficient for every challenge in life. May we learn the lessons You desire to teach us so that we may mature in the faith by trusting Your Word and obeying Your commands. In Jesus' name we pray, AMEN. The outward appearances of a many may deceive us.. but God alone understands the heart. We may not even know the true content of our own hearts, but the Lord our God knows what is in the heart of each one of us. We are all fallen creatures and although we praise and thank God that we have been saved by grace through faith in Christ. That we have been made a new creation in Him and have been given His resurrected life. As believers who are living in the dispensation of grace, we have the Holy Spirit in our heart, Who will never leave us nor forsake us - and He can never be taken away from us. Nevertheless, knowing that the heart is more deceitful than anything else and desperately wicked, we should always check to see if we are trusting in anything other than the Lord Jesus. "The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it?" Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You that we are Your children and have been saved by grace through faith in Christ - nonetheless it is uncomfortable to realize that like all others.. our hearts are deceitful and desperately wicked. We pray that You would search our hearts; our motives; our conscious thoughts - and even our unconscious imaginings, to see if there is anything in us that needs to be rooted out. Purify our hearts we pray, in Jesus name, AMEN. The beauty and goodness of light is always contrasted with the ugliness and disturbing features of darkness.. for some love darkness rather than light because their deeds are evil. Light is always identified as holy and good. Christ is the light of the world, Who has poured the light of salvation and the light of His eternal life into the heart of all who believe in Him. The light of God is always presented in the Bible as the antithesis of evil. The significance of light being the very first thing that was spoken into being on that first days of creation, points us back to God, light symbolizes His holiness, His presence, His favor and His grace. But it also points us forward to Jesus the light of the world, Who is the light of life. We read in the Bible that the fruit of the light results in all goodness, grace, righteousness, and truth. "And God saw that the light was good. And God separated the light from the darkness." Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You that Christ is our light and the light of our lives. Thank You that in Him the blackness in our hearts has been replaced with the light of the glorious gospel of grace and that we have been saved from the kingdom of darkness and brought into the kingdom of Your dear Son. May we be lights shining in a dark world as witnesses of Your goodness and grace - to Your praise and glory in Jesus name we pray, AMEN. Prayer is not sitting for a few minutes with your hands folded, and eyes shut tight. Prayer is the tool we have been given to prepare us for the work God has called us to do and to ensure that we are well-prepared when faced with a crisis. Prayer is not meant to be saved for a rainy day or only used in an emergency. Prayer is our lifeline to the Lord and we should develop a habit of ceaseless prayer. Continuous, ceaseless, prayer is not being engaged in a prayer closet 24/7, but is developing a habit of prayer. It is initiating a mindset of prayer... of keeping the lines of communication to the Lord open and clean, as we walk in spirit and truth and abide in Christ, moment by moment. "Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving." Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, we are blessed with Your grace and mercy to us. Thank You that we have the right to lay at Your feet our needs and those of others. Increase our understanding of the great privilege of prayer that has been granted to all Your children, and we pray that we increasingly devote our lives to You in prayer, praise, and grateful thanks. This we ask in Jesus' name, AMEN. The Word of the Lord not only refers to the scriptures but also to the Person of the Lord Jesus Christ, the Word of the Father, the eternal Son of God, He is the only eternally abiding reality in this world - and in the world to come, life everlasting. Let us read, mark, learn, inwardly digest and take to heart all that He is and all that He has to say, and let us apply all that he teaches us, into our daily lives. "The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever.” Our United Prayer:
Loving Father, thank You for Your Living Word and Your Written Word. We pray we would love Your Word more every day, and that we will understand the blessing of hiding Your Word in our hearts. Thank You for Your everlasting grace and mercy toward foolish, frail humanity, and thank You that Your Word stands forever. In Jesus’ name we pray, AMEN. |
