Book Cover & Preview Text
Prayer is communicating back to God what He has already said. Putting Him in remembrance of His Word, which are His promises and blessings for the Saints of God. We are His consecrated people. Prayer is the act of bringing God into every situation! We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ (2 Corinthians 10:5 translation). Prayer shows our dependence upon God, as our Father, when we seek Him first and His righteousness; by acknowledging and including Him in "everything” that we do and in "all" of our ways, God is glorified. Not doing anything in and of ourselves, but in everything we must pray. Prayer involves two-way participation. I speak, and then I listen, allowing God to speak to me. The most important thing in prayer is what God says; I must be willing and obedient to Him, so every area of my life will be fruitful.
