10/10          MATTHEW 6:7

7 “When you pray, don’t babble on and on as people of other religions do. They think their prayers are answered merely by repeating their words again and again. 

THINK

The Lord is your Father.  Jesus has brought you into the family.  Talk with Abba Father as you would if HE were standing in front of you because He is.  He is interested in everything about you.  Talk with Him.  Tell Him what you need. Don’t parse it to tell Him what you think He wants to hear.  Tell Him what you need.  Anything.  Anything at all.  Tell the Father straight from your heart.  

10/09          MATTHEW 5:44

44 But I say, love your enemies! Pray for those who persecute you! 

REALLife is real.  The commands of Jesus are real.  They are impossible without Holy Spirit, Jesus filled living.  Love the Lord.  Serve Him by serving people.  Jesus loves you.  

10/08          JAMES 5:13

13 Are any of you suffering hardships? You should pray. Are any of you happy? You should sing praises.

PRAY        

We have a Biblical injunction to pray for others.  Do it.  Whatever season life finds you in we are called to pray without ceasing, always.  Pray.  It is important for your growth in Christ and your daily walk in the power of the Holy Spirit.  

10/07          JOHN 17:15

15 I’m not asking you to take them out of the world, but to keep them safe from the evil one.

STAND

We can stand our ground daily if we will seriously accept the Lord’s strength.  His power can do that which only God can do.  Jesus is Lord.  Let Him have control of your life.  

10/06          JOB 22:27

27 You will pray to him, and he will hear you, and you will fulfill your vows to him.

DO 

Do what you vowed.  When you tell the Lord you will do such and such, do it.  Or be careful what you promise the Lord and you won’t mess up.  It is important that we remember the vows we make to the Lord and also to be sure to do them.  Marriage is in fact a vow to the Lord.  Divorce breaks that vow, and we are the culprit.  Do what you say you will do.  

10/05          JEREMIAH 29:12

12In those days when you pray, I will listen.

WILL

The Lord will listen to your prayer.  Pray and He will listen.  You always have entre to the Father.  Pray to Him and ask His blessing and that He answer your prayers.  God is good.  He is always good.  

10/04          EPHESIANS 6:18

18 Pray in the Spirit at all times and on every occasion. Stay alert and be persistent in your prayers for all believers everywhere.

ALERT

Our prayers are not simply moaning about our happenstance.  Our prayers are to be sincere, passionate conversation with the Lord God.  We come into His throne room and talk with Him.  Stay alert.  The Lord is waiting to hear from you.  

10/03          2 CHRONICLES 6:21

21 May you hear the humble and earnest requests from me and your people Israel when we pray toward this place. Yes, hear us from heaven where you live, and when you hear, forgive.

FORGIVE

Only the Lord, in Jesus Christ, can forgive our sin.  We stand in Christ’s righteousness, and He paid the price for our sin which was His shed blood.  Jesus loves you and HE is Lord.  

10/02          1 CHRONICLES 16:11

11 Search for the LORD and for his strength; continually seek him.

DAILY

His mercies are new and refreshing each morning.  Spend time talking with the Father.  Praise Him and offer up prayers of gratitude and thanksgiving.  Remember that it is the Lord who loves you.  Spend time with Jesus.  

10/01          1 JOHN 5:14-16 
14 And we are confident that he hears us whenever we ask for anything that pleases him. 15 And since we know he hears us when we make our requests, we also know that he will give us what we ask for. 16 If you see a fellow believer sinning in a way that does not lead to death, you should pray, and God will give that person life. But there is a sin that leads to death, and I am not saying you should pray for those who commit it. 

HEARS

The Lord God Almighty hears your prayers.  Our Father answers our prayers.  Believe in Him and He will do it.  Praise God from whom all blessings flow.
