Pray To Receive Transcending Power

Do you like to pray? Are you always bringing your problems and heart's most concerned to God, wanting to receive answers from Him? Do you often find that the spirit remains unchanged even after praying, and you find it pointless to continue praying? Actually, we often pray with the wrong focus and according to how we feel. Man is created by God and only when we meditate on the Words that gives life that we will experience transformation in the spirit. Prayer has to start from the truth, and only when you look into the words can you receive answers in life. And a person who enjoys prayer (communion with God) is truly one who does not pray out of habits but rather, she wakes up each day realizing that she needs to pray for she needs God. This is humility - her spirit is teachable, she hears the loving voice of God and she learns to trust God and follow His guidance. Word and prayer go hand in hand, know the word and in your prayers, confirm the word until it becomes your second nature - when the word is in your sub-consciousness, you are in a state of continued prayer. Man is created by God and only when we meditate on the Words that gives life that we will experience transformation in the spirit. Prayer has to start from the truth, and only when you look into the words can you receive answers in life. And a person who enjoys prayer (communion with God) is truly one who does not pray out of habits but rather, she wakes up each day realizing that she needs to pray for she needs God. This is humility - her spirit is teachable, she hears the loving voice of God and she learns to trust God and follow His guidance. May the Lord give us breakthrough in our prayer life.

In times of crisis, the natural human reaction would be to either panic or look at what measures the leaders are taking.
However, we need to calm down and seek the will of God through this.  Ask within ourselves: Is it according to God’s will, can it edify people and benefit the country? Now is the time to gather, to pray together, to test and affirm together. Let us pray for leaders of the church to restore their spiritual authority and for the leaders of the nation to have the wisdom and discernment in decision making.
