NOW, WE MUST PRAY!
He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall remain stable and fixed under the shadow of the Almighty [Whose power no foe can withstand]. I will say of the Lord, He is my Refuge and my Fortress, my God; on Him I lean and rely, and in Him I [confidently] trust! Psalm 91:1,2.
Our daily activities have become more important than our RELATIONSHIP AND FELLOWSHIP with God, who certainly is the most important person in our existence! Also we now have all the cogent reasons not to seek the Lord in prayer daily. But our cogent, well formulated and manufactured reasons to escape dwelling in God's awesome presence daily WOULD NEVER provide the protection, provision and promotion that effectual and effective prayer brings us.
That's why there's delay, disruption and interruption in our plans and projects. So, we should repent of our unfaithfulness in this divine relationship with God our Father through Jesus Christ. Now, without any further excuses, we must pray, no matter what, whether in other tongues, under our breath, in the restroom, in the kitchen preparing the meal, doing the dishes or laundry, while in the car driving, working, walking or exercising. Any excuse not to pray is the reason we're going to fail. Jesus said, PRAY SO THAT YOU DON'T FAIL OR FALL into temptation. Meaning, if we don't pray, IRRESPECTIVE OF OUR COGENT REASONS AND EXCUSES, WE SHALL FAIL OR FALL, though that's not God's will!
Before Gethsemane, Peter and all other disciples vowed never to deny or desert Jesus Christ. They meant it and were most determined to keep their noble promise. But Jesus, highly skilled in spiritual matters warned and invited them to TRUST GOD AND NOT THEIR ABILITY. To do so by concretizing their noble promise with or on seasoned prayer. Though they knew the importance of prayer, they failed to pray, and so failed and fell away. However, only the Lord Jesus who prayed didn't fail or fall into the temptation of denying the Father's mandate to die and save humanity. Wholehearted prayer is the divine aroma that attracts and invites God's grace and mercy to turn our stinky situations and circumstances around for good.
Now, we all have been made promises by noble people and we have made some noble promises too. People have disappointed us and we too have disappointed people, ourselves and God. Nevertheless, Jesus Christ shows us that until we concretize people's, and even our own promises in the place of seasoned prayer, failure and disappointment would remain. Noble promises will not remain so until through prayer, we put God's infallible validation on them.
Psalm 116:1,2.
1 I love the Lord, because He has heard [and now hears] my voice and my supplications. Because He has inclined His ear to me, therefore will I call upon Him as long as I live.
WE MUST BRING HOME THAT PROMISE AND BLESSING! It's time to Pray without ceasing. Hallelujah!
