Make prayer a priority!
In Jim Cymbala’s book "Fresh Wind, Fresh Fire", he has this to say about the apostles priority of prayer,
“The apostles had this instinct: When in trouble, pray. When intimidated, pray. When challenged, pray. When persecuted, pray.”
_
What a great observation!
What a truly awesome challenge for us - Can we like the apostles, make prayer our priority in every circumstance, even when we’re not facing troubling times?
_
Just making prayer so much a part of us that we pray throughout the day or set a special portion of the day a side to, intercede, cry out, praise, thank, communicate, etc., with Him through prayer!
_
He wants to hear from us. It pleases Him so much when we focus our time in communicating with Him through prayer!
_
Prayer is a gift from God and we get to communicate with our Heavenly Father whenever we want to and we can also intercede for others as well!
_
I pray that you and I make prayer more of a priority in our lives.
