HOW’S YOUR PRAYER LIFE?
DO YOU PRAY?
WHO DO YOU PRAY TO?
WHAT DO YOU PRAY?
Pastor Ron (my pastor) gave an awesome message on prayer. Not your typical message on prayer. There was basically two parts to the message that I’d like to blog about. Listen to podcast here.
 
Part 1: Who do you pray to?
Basically, most everyone prays. But to who? Do you pray to the one and only Living God? Can the god of the Hindu’s, Buddists’, etc… heal the sick? Make me feel better when I’m alone? Change whole nations and cities? Do the impossible?

My GOD can! My God controls the weather! My God heals the sick! My God speaks to me! My God LOVES me! My God pours out wisdom to me! My God saves me from my own stupidity! My God saved me from an enternity in hell with a being that hates me! Can your god do that?
 
Part 2: Do you pray prayers that are as big as your god? Do you pray prayers that can only happen by God making it so? I don’t know that until recently I had. I prayed within my own limits of faith. But recently He’s been placing prayers in me that are bigger that the amount of faith I have. So in obendience, I’m praying these prayers. I can’t wait to see His Word come forth to fruition. What a day of rejoicing that will be!
 
In Matthew 16:20, God tells us we only need the amount of faith the size of a mustard seed and nothing will be impossible for us. That’s good. Because most of the time that’s about all the faith I have. I can see however Him growing that faith as I exercise that faith. Today I’ll pray with a mustard seed of faith. But like all seeds, they must grow or they will die. So tomorrow, I will have more than a mustard seed worth of faith.
