      Little Book, Big Prayers - Christine Brooks Martin

      INTRODUCTION

      But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD will hear when I call unto him.--Psalm 4:3

      Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works. --Titus 2:13-14

      But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light: --1Peter 2:9

      Prayer should be contagious and something you would want to catch. Sometimes it is caught and taught by example from anointed men and women of God. The ideal way to catch the desire to pray is by accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour and being filled with His Holy Spirit. Our teacher and helper for prayer and living a redeemed life is through the Holy Spirit. When you yield to the enabling assistance of the Spirit you will want to commune and fellowship with God frequently. The Spirit helps us approach God with sincerity and humility.

      Prayer is your access to the holy place, the presence of God--His glory, and for receiving revelation or the answer for your concerns. Developing a greater prayer life means you want to take hold of God. You want to know about Him, who He is, what He does, what He wants. You also find out who you are, why you are here, and what you can have. Prayer is your spiritual sustenance and helps you learn to yield and abide in Christ so you can become like Him.

      As you pray you will experience the manifestation of kingdom alternatives to your circumstances. I heard someone say that prayers never die but live on before God until answered. If you want to communicate with God and gain a personal relationship with Him, you need to pray. Prayer is sharing your heart and mind about a matter with Him. God wants to hear from you even though He already knows what your needs are. Prayer is seeking His presence just to be in His presence. It isn't necessary to want or need anything material to commune and fellowship with Him.

      When you place God first in your life through daily prayer, you are introduced to a wealth of his promises. You can rest assured that He is your source. He deepens His relationship with you and causes you to see signs of change and your spiritual growth. You will find that you have greater peace and power to overcome obstacles and challenges. You will experience abundant living and provision. A deeper relationship through prayer reveals that God is truly omnipresent, omnipotent and omniscient.

      Prayer makes you ready to receive His compassion, love, faithfulness, goodness, and strength. You will find an increase of His presence and glory in your environment. You will see His guidance and direction for your life and relationships. The scriptures say that you will reap what you sow. If you sow the seeds of prayer in the atmosphere, you will reap a harvest of blessing. That blessing includes, provision, protection, healing, and deliverance for every facet of your life.

      Trials and struggles will try to make you put your faith in your flesh. But the word of God is alive and resurrects your hope and trust in His ability even in the midst of adversity. Prayer keeps us under the teaching and help of the Holy Spirit and trains us to hear the voice of God. When you are committed to prayer it shows that you have made God your source. Your desire for God to be first in your life is cultivated daily by developing an intimate relationship with him. Intimacy is closing the door to everyone and everything else to be with Him, being hungry for his presence. Your attention is diverted from your circumstances to focus on God.

      Intimacy through prayer moves God and brings His presence into your situations. You will know your position and who you are in the kingdom. You will know your kingdom rights and access. You will know the significance of reverencing the Lord, loving Him with all of your heart, mind and strength, obeying His word, walking in His ways and serving Him with joy and gladness.

      He wants to hear from us everyday. Whenever you express your heart and mind to Him, He helps you overcome impossible situations. There is no substitute for a personal, intimate prayer life. You can talk to God in your own words, in your own way. But praying the scriptures helps you experience a greater manifestation of blessing in your life. Declaring the power and authority of the scriptures takes hold of your inheritance. You begin to learn, know and embrace faith-building, faith-sustaining truths about any circumstance.

      But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. --James 1:4
