We exist to exhibit God, to display His glory. We serve as canvases for His brush stroke, papers for His pen, soil for His seeds, glimpses of His image.
Scripture, Psalm 61:1, Hear my cry, O God; listen to my prayer.
Devotion: Go to God
Whenever I am troubled and lost in deep despair, I bundle all my troubles up and go to God in prayer. Psalm 102:17, He will respond to the prayer of the destitute; he will not despise their plea.
Today ponder the question: “What does God want me to do with my life?”

Encouraging prayer is the goal of this ministry. I have a list of the principles of prayer from the life of Jesus. Use this as a guide if you wish. It tells it all very plainly.
Prayer requires FAITH…..faith is the inspiration for prayer and prayer the expression of that faith. Matthew 21:22, “Whatever things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.
Prayer requires SINCERITY…..John 4:24, A person is to come to the Father in spirit and truth. Jesus said, “When you pray don’t be like the hypocrites. They stand in synagogues and on street corners so they are seen. Approach God with humbleness and a sense of urgency and eagerness.
Prayer requires FORGIVENESS……The forgiveness of your sins through the finished work of Christ makes a right and open relationship with God the Father possible. Forgive others as we are forgiven. Jesus taught that without a forgiving spirit, your
Prayers are meaningless.
Pray is to be a WAY OF LIFE……It should be as vital as eating, sleeping and breathing. It is a conversation with God, not with men. The depth of Jesus’ relationship with the Father was revealed by the amount of time He spent in prayer. So, when
We pray, we reflect Jesus’ very manner of life——a life of prayer.
My prayer for all is to love one another and cherish the relationship you share with our Heavenly Father. Remember God loves you always. Say a little prayer and all will be well. Be kind and giving to each other with loving hearts.
Prayerfully yours,
Nancy
