Be Faithful in Prayer

Last Sunday, I was reminded by God to be faithful in prayer...

In the last day of January 2010, God reminded me how prayer is really important in my Christian's life.. Pastor Tjong Wun Jen described 3 reasons why we have to be faithful in prayer

1. Jesus Loves to Hear our Prayers

Just as father loves to hear his children, Our Father also loves to hear our stories, our burden, our cries, our hopes, our wishes, and even our problems.. He is God and He has no limit. We could speak to Him anytime, anywhere, and anyhow we want.. We don't have to make appointment with Him because He will always be there for us. We also do not need to worry because our prayers are save with God. So, why are we still hesitate to pray??

2. Jesus Knows Our Hearts

Nobody knows us well enough besides Jesus. He knows our laughs, our tears, our problems, our needs.. He knows everything about us.. He knows that we need Him more than everything. We are blessed enough that we can communicate with Him even though He is already knew our need. He never refuses to hear our complains or our needs. So.. How awesome is Our God??

3. Prayer can change people's life

Through prayer we build our personal relationship with God. When we pray, God is working in our lives. In prayer, we are not only talking to God but we also listen to His Words. Through prayers, our Christians lives are renewed every single day. We are molded into His ways and our priority are changed.

I knew all of those but I still not put prayer as my priority. That is why I could not hear God's voice or not sensitive enough to sense His presence. Thanks God for He is good all the time. He reminded me to be a prayer doing and I promised myself to be faithful in prayer.

One of my new resolution, the most important one, is I want to experience God more this year. And God show me His guide day by day. One point He showed me is to be faithful in prayer..

So, let's pray together for it is our life breath...

I Thessalonians 5:17 (KJV)

"Pray without ceasing"
