Each day Devotionals for Ladies – As we speak’s Encouraging Phrase from Scripture

A Prayer to Keep Devoted in Prayer
By Christine F. Perry 

Bible Studying:
“Commit yourselves to prayer, being watchful and grateful.” Colossians 4:2 NIV

Pay attention or Learn Under:

At any time when I write on a subject, I’m at all times examined on it. This text isn’t any totally different. Once I sat down to put in writing, I used to be struggling to wish! One among my favourite authors at all times says, “Don’t write from an empty effectively.” So, l walked away, left the cursor blinking, and wrote down some verses and spent a while with the Lord. I needed to confess my wrestle with prayer. D.A. Carson, the cofounder of The Gospel Coalition, says, “pray till we pray.” Praying is a non secular self-discipline. It’s like figuring out. You don’t at all times really feel prefer it, however it’s good for you. Praying is just not for the faint of coronary heart. Particularly when you’ve prayed for years for a selected request that continues to be unfulfilled. However I wish to encourage you. God hears you. 

Psalm 55:16-17 says:

“As for me, I’ll name upon God,
And the Lord shall save me.
Night and morning and at midday
I’ll pray, and cry aloud,
And He shall hear my voice.”

I wish to encourage you to maintain a journal to see how God has answered prayer, which helps bolster our religion and gas us to maintain praying. After we maintain a journal, we are able to write down our prayer requests, and after they get answered, we are able to return and mark them as answered. Once you get discouraged with prayer requests which have but to be answered, learn via your journal to see what number of prayers God has answered. This helps us to be watchful and grateful, as Colossians 4:2 says.   

Moreover, there are a lot of prayer warriors who’ve gone earlier than us. George Mueller, Corrie Ten Increase, Otto Koening, Mully. Typically when I’m discouraged, I’ll return and browse or take heed to their tales of answered prayers. The enemy likes to maintain us from praying as a result of once we don’t pray, his plans aren’t impeded. Could our purpose in praying be what C.S. Lewis stated, “My hope is that after I die, all of hell rejoices that I’m out of the battle.”

Let’s Pray:

Pricey Heavenly Father,
Thank You that we are able to come to You at any time and You hear us. Lord, please forgive us for once we doubt whether or not prayer works. Lord, You say that we’re Your youngsters and that You’re keen on to listen to us pray. Father, please forgive us for our sins. Assist us to like You with all our hearts, minds, souls, and energy. Assist us additionally to know the way a lot You’re keen on us and that You might be intimately acquainted with all our methods. Lord, You say, in James 5:16, that the prayer of a righteous individual is highly effective and efficient. Lord, we’re solely righteous due to Your sacrifice. I pray that You’ll assist our unbelief. Father, I pray that You’ll assist us to wish and belief You with the result. Assist us to develop not solely in our stroll with You but additionally in our prayer life. Lord, we’re nothing with out You. We’d like You day-after-day. And Lord, thank You for making intercession for us. We love You. Thanks! Amen!
