Prayer time 1
This devotion from Pastor Rick Warren really spoke to me about prayer:
We usually pray for peoples’ needs — health and financial and relational — but we don’t spend nearly as much time praying for their spiritual growth. We don’t pray that God would change our character to be more like him. I think one of the reasons is that we don’t know what to pray about. Fortunately the Bible is filled with verses about how to pray for somebody to grow spiritually.
“May you be able to feel and understand … how long, how wide, how deep, and how high [God’s] love really is; and to experience this love for yourselves” (Ephesians 3:19a TLB). Who do you know that may be struggling and needs God’s love in their life right now? Bring them to mind and say, “God, let them know today how much you really love them.”
Many times I have found myself searching for the right words to express my feelings in my prayer time. I like the scriptures and the comments in this devotion and I thought I would share them.
