Claiming the Power of Prayer Lisa Mayo

If you’re a regular listener of this podcast, you may have wondered why I’ve been off the air for the last month. Today I’m going to talk about what happened.

If you don’t pray, you’re not searching for a personal relationship with God, if you don’t stay with him for long periods in order to know him, study him, your memory what we can, you will no longer recognize him. You will not be able to, because you will no longer know how to love. Have you been not praying, not seeking him personally because you don’t love him or because you have no time?.

One of the most exciting results of prayer happens when God‘s power is released in our lives. Andrew Murray strongly believed that the “devil’s greatest tool is to keep the believer from praying.” Think about that. If your enemy knew you had a very effective and powerful weapon for winning battles, wouldn’t it make sense for him to distract you from using it?

The most difficult aspect of prayer is waiting on God to answer us. How we wait on His timing says a lot about the depth of our trust in Him.

The practice of daily, regular Bible reading combined with two way conversation with the Lord develops and unwavering, lasting, firm faith. Prayer and the word of God unlock the doors that we long to see open. They should not be considered individual elements of a Christians life; they should be thought of as two parts of one element. A deeper walk with God emerges when the word is constantly blended with prayer in a believers life

We tell ourselves that if we had a strong faith, we could walk through life much more confidently and faithfully and much less emotionally. Is there any hope for us?
