Read 1 Kings 17:1-7
[1]And Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants of Gilead, said unto Ahab, As the LORD God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word.[2]And the word of the LORD came unto him, saying,[3]Get thee hence, and turn thee eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan.[4]And it shall be, that thou shalt drink of the brook; and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there.[5]So he went and did according unto the word of the LORD: for he went and dwelt by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan.[6]And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening; and he drank of the brook.[7]And it came to pass after a while, that the brook dried up, because there had been no rain in the land.
MEMORISE:
Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain; and it did not rain on the land for three years and six months (James 5:17)
EXPOSITION
Stella's husband termed her a bad communicator. Whenever the couple were having soul-to-soul discussion, the wife was fond of dominating the session. She shared her own views and wouldn't be attentive enough to hear her husband out. Does that describe your prayer style - praying without feedbacks?
Prayer is an act of communicating with God. Genuine prayer is a two-way communication line. When we talk, God hears and talks back to us, and we are expected to hear Him, too. Many are not attentive enough to get feedback from God. No wonder they are not getting results. Not all prayers bring results in form of a gift bag. Answer to some prayers come in form of instruction, guidance, direction from God on what you are to do. In the process of God talking to us, we must learn to listen. In most cases, God does not just talk to us, but also acts on our prayers. Hence, we should be sensitive to God's responses to our prayers.
Some of the below listed points would definitely help your prayer life:
- Prayer makes your utterance as potent as God's spoken words.
- Prayer is the medium by which man transmits the power of God to reach the earth.
- Prayer is the heart of a man talking to God.
- Prayer is the most powerful form of energy one can generate to counter any force that wants to stop one.
- The place of prayer is a depot of miraculous activities.
- Prayer changes things.
Think on what you righteously desire to make happen, pray about it, today, and watch God turning your prayer item to a testimony.
PRAYER POINTS
- Oh Lord, whenever I call, hear me and give me speedy answers to my prayers, in Jesus' name.
- Give me, O Lord, the heart that obeys You and talks to, and with You in Prayers.
- Father, restore in our Church leaders and members, the spirit of genuine commitment to prayer as of old, to facilitate true and lasting revival in the churches.
