MAGNIFICENT PRAYER by NICK HARRISON God is not a man, that He should lie, Nor a son of man, that He should repent. Has He said, and will He not do? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good? Numbers 23:19 Remember that faith is not a strange sensation that comes over you in rare moments, a magic thrill from something in the minister's voice, a mystic trance to be reached once in a while, then lost for weeks or years. It is a sturdy confidence that God will keep His promises, confidence enough to walk out on them and live there, although the world expects them to crack and crumble under you any day. (Vance Havner) PRAY ABOUT IT: Refuse to allow your feelings to measure the effectiveness of your prayers. God does not put you in a trance nor give you outward signs that you've been heard. Further, such dependencies are the enemy of faith. Faith is the sturdy confidence that you've been heard, based on God's promise in His Word. Satan is a master when it comes to orchestrating feelings in Christians. He loves it when we get those goose-bump sensations, because he knows that when they leave, we'll assume we're no longer connected to God. This doesn't mean that we're to leave our emotions outside the prayer-room door, rather it means that emotions such as joy, tears, love, or excitement may follow our prayers but they may never lead our prayers or offer us proof that we've been heard. Stop considering your emotions and simply regard your will, which is the real king in your being. Is your will open to God? Does your will decide to believe? Does your will choose to obey? If this is the case, then you are in the Lord's hands. (Hannah Whitall Smith) | ||||||

31 DAYS OF PRAISE ENJOYING GOD ANEW By Ruth Myers with Warren Myers DAY 26 Father, I praise You that Jesus is Victor over Satan and all his evil powers --- that He triumphed over them through the Cross and Resurrection and that You have highly exalted Him. You have given Him a position infinitely superior to all other powers and authorities ... a name that stands far above all other names that will ever be used. (Colossians 2:15; Ephesians 1:19-21; Philippians 2:9-10; Eph. 2:6) How I praise You that I need not strive toward a possible victory, but can live from a position of victory already won that He who is in me (Father, Son and Holy Ghost) is greater than he who is in the world ... that although Satan is powerful he CANNOT prevail against the blood of the Lamb and the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ!! Thank You that Satan must retreat before that Name and before Your Word, the living and powerful sword of the Spirit, and that in the end he will be cast down into everlasting defeat and shame. (1John 4:4; Revelation 12:11; Acts 16:18; Eph. 6:17; Revelation 20:10) What a joy to know that You are the same today as You were centuries ago in Isaiah's day, when You promised to rescue Your people in a hopeless looking situation, when the enemy seemed to have prevailed. How I love the words You spoke to them: "Those who hopefully wait for Me will not be put to shame.... Even the captives of the mighty man will be taken away, and the prey of the tyrant will be rescued; For I will contend with the one who contends with you, and I will save your sons." I praise You that I can count on You to do this in our spiritual warfare, and that through You we shall do valiantly, for You will trample down our enemies. (Isaiah 49:23-25; Psalm 108:13) | ||||||

MAGNIFICENT PRAYER by NICK HARRISON But Jesus withdrew to lonely places and prayed. Luke 5:16 Almost anything associated with the ministry may be learned with an average amount of intelligent applications. It is not hard to preach or manage church affairs or pay a social call. But prayer ---- that is another matter. . . . There the lonely man of God must wrestle it out alone, sometimes in fasting and tears and weariness untold. There every man must be an original, for true prayer cannot be imitated. (A.W. Tozer) PRAY ABOUT IT: One problem many of us face in private prayer is the loneliness of the practice. There, shut up in our prayer closets, we can do nothing but pray. We see no one, we speak to no other human being, nor do we hear another human voice. Maybe that's why we're so quick to be finished with our devotions. We want the companionship of another human being. We want to begin our day, see our friends, get about our work. And yet the promise of prayer is a companionship unachievable by any other earthly endeavor! Jesus knew the joy to be found only in the "lonely places." When we're finally finished with our restlessness before God and settle down, it's then and only then that we're able to know Him intimately and individually. It's then that prayer becomes its own reward. God makes all His best people in loneliness. (Leonard Ravenhill) | ||||||
