Are You Saying the Kind of Prayers to Get Results?

He is the Creator of the Universe, he is almighty, powerful, and he is our heavenly Father.  God loves us more than we know!  So are we having the kind of conversation with him that is getting results?  Do we see the fruits of the Spirit being made manifested in our lives?  If not, do we have some un-confessed sins that we must take care of before approaching him?

With so much madness going on in the world, some believers have got to step it up in their prayer time!  It isn't any wonder that for some Christians there seems to be static in the prayer line when it comes to God answering prayers and petitions, because they don't take him or his words seriously.  For some, wayward in the faith, God is far away, doesn't care, and has better things to do than to listen to them.  But I beg to differ!  He does hear, see, care, love, and acts upon our requests.  Yet, are we doing any of those things when he wants to get our attention?  When God tells us to listen, follow instructions, lean on him, read his word, go through Jesus when we pray, attend bible study and/or worship services, are we doing just that?

Trust in God today and tell him about the things that are good, bad and otherwise.  Simply believe that he has heard your requests about yourself, spouse, children, family, co-workers, brothers and sisters in Christ as well as strangers on the street.  Afterward, sit awhile and listen out for his voice and seek evidence that he has heard your prayers.

Blessings to you this holiday season!
