Don’t Rush Your Praying – Rhapsody Of Realities TeeVo Devotional March 26th

(The Importance Of Praying Without Giving Up)

TO THE BIBLE: Luke 18:1 AMPC
“…[Jesus] told them a parable to the effect that they ought always to pray and not to turn coward (faint, lose heart, and give up).”

LET’S TALK
Someone once said, “I have so much to do in very little time; it leaves me with very little time to pray. So, in the mornings, I pray for only five minutes because I always have a busy day.” That’s a big mistake.

Never skip or reduce your times of fellowship with the Lord for other things you might consider “important.” The wisdom, guidance, and strength you need for success come from the Lord. Always remember that.

When you have so much to do, that’s when you need to pray. In fact, you’ll need to pray more at such times because you require spiritual help to achieve results in a shorter time and in the best way.

Instead of feeling too busy to pray, a wise person will say, “I have so much work to do that I’ll need to give more time to prayer.” You receive a boost in your energy and inspiration, which will give you speed.

Jesus said men ought always to pray and not to give up (Luke 18:1), letting us know that we were made to pray. It’s something God built within the human system. In other words, there’ll always be the need for that spiritual fellowship with God.

Through such fellowship, we can be built, encouraged, and directed—we also obtain the Lord’s mercy, grace, and intervention in our circumstances. Not only should you desire to pray, you should pray always.

We don’t pray just because we require a miracle; we pray because we’re in a loving relationship with a real, loving heavenly Father.

Pray:
Dear Father, thank you for the privilege and blessings of prayer. Thank you for the opportunity to fellowship with you, loving and gracious Father! You’re my source and ability, and I’m confident that my future is secure as I remain yielded to your Spirit and guided by your wisdom, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
