John 14:14 (NKJV) 14 If you ask anything in My name, I will do it<\/span>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

If we truly want God\u2019s answers, we have to pray.<\/p>\n

I say this with all\u00a0sincerity. I have seen God move through prayer so much in my life and in such a powerful way that\u00a0it\u00a0makes me want to stay praying all day long. Why? Because God’s desire to help people is so strong, I want to lift everyone up in prayer because I know that God moves.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Prayer is essential for us in order\u00a0to stay close to God. It allows us to be able to follow God and to\u00a0know what He has for us in the time and hour in which we live.<\/p>\n

It might be a correction in our step, or a healing in our body.<\/p>\n

It may be specific directions to escape or overcome our problem, or deliverance from our addictions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Asking people to pray for us is OK. The Bible tells us to pray for each other. But, we must remember that just because we have someone praying for us and with us, we still need to be praying for ourselves and others as well. We absolutely need to spend time with God.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Some people won\u2019t even attempt to pray. Why? Because they think they don\u2019t know how to do it correctly.<\/p>\n

The most important things we need to know are these; 1. He is God, Jehovah Jireh, El Shaddai, Majesty, Creator, Heavenly Father. And, 2. the only way to Him is through His Son Jesus Christ. That\u2019s it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

John 14:6 (NKJV) 6 Jesus said to him, \u201cI am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me<\/span>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Some may think asking God for what they need is\u00a0inappropriate. They may feel guilty because they see others going through difficulties and they don\u2019t want to bother God or take away from the needs of others.<\/p>\n

This is not of God. This thinking is wrong. And it can be prideful, even though on the\u00a0surface\u00a0it appears to be humble.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

You see, the devil\u00a0doesn’t\u00a0want us to go to God and ask for things, because he knows that if we go in faith, with the right heart, and through His Son, we will see God move.<\/p>\n

The devil will\u00a0use\u00a0deceitful\u00a0thoughts, or pride, to stop us from asking, to stop us from getting our answers. He wants us to suffer and not get ahead in this life.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

He\u00a0doesn\u2019t\u00a0want us to know that we can go to God, pray, ask and receive. No. That would change us from leaning on our own understanding to resting and trusting in God.<\/p>\n

That may cause us to walk in humility, leaving behind pride, arrogance and trying to figure everything out based on our own intellect.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

It\u00a0would rock this world if our relationship and trust\u00a0were ever\u00a0so strong in Him.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

People of God, we are missing out on God\u2019s faithfulness, guidance and victory if we are not praying and going to Him for guidance on a daily basis.\u00a0If we keep running to and depending on others to pray for\u00a0us,\u00a0we are missing out.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

God\u00a0desires\u00a0our\u00a0fellowship through His Son.<\/p>\n

This doesn\u2019t mean that it\u2019s bad to ask for prayer from others. It simply means that if we do ask others, we need to continue to pray as well.\u00a0We can’t just leave it all up to someone else to find our answer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

1 Corinthians 1:9 (NKJV) 9 God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
