Tracy 2/1/2026 2:37:42 PM MST | MAGNIFICENT PRAYER by NICK HARRISON It shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are speaking, I will hear. Isaiah 65:14 There is no danger of the individual Christian being overlooked amidst the multitude of supplicants who daily and hourly present their various petitions, for an infinite Mind is as capable of paying the same attention to millions as if only one individual were seeking its attention. So too, the lack of appropriate language, the inability to give expression to the deepest longing of the soul, will not jeopardize our prayers, for "It shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear." (Arthur Pink) PRAY ABOUT IT: Don't put limitations on God. He can hear your prayers at the same time your brothers and sisters are at prayer all around the world. J.B. Phillips wrote what has become a classic book, entitled Your God Is Too Small, wherein he challenged the limitations that most people put on God. The One to whom we pray knows the past, the present, and the future, and nothing is allowed to happen without His knowledge and permission. Thus, we may have firm confidence in God. He is Sovereign. The prayers you will pray today, God will hear while you are yet speaking. And even more: before you call on Him, the answer is on its way! Your thoughts of God are too human. (Martin Luther) | |||

MAGNIFICENT PRAYER by NICK HARRISON NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE WITH GOD. (LUKE 1:37) Whatever God can do, faith can do, and whatever faith can do, prayer can do when it is offered in faith. An invitation to prayer is, therefore, an invitation to omnipotence, for prayer engages the Omnipotent God and brings Him into our human affairs. Nothing is impossible to the Christian who prays in faith, just as nothing is impossible with God. This generation has yet to prove all that prayer can do for believing men and women. (A.W. Tozer) PRAY ABOUT IT: Is there a better reason for prayer than that it "engages the Omnipotent God and brings Him into our human affairs"? When we pray, God is truly on our side. May ours be the generation that proves what prayer can do. Today, boldly invite God into your affairs. And He will come boldly. Prayer is the releasing the energies of God. For prayer is asking God to do what we cannot do. (Charles Trumbull) | |||

MAGNIFICENT PRAYER by NICK HARRISON Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these. Matthew 19:14 You say you do not know how to pray? . . . . Follow the leading of simplicity in prayer, there can never be excess of it, for God loves to see us like little children in His presence. (Jean-Pierre De Caussade) PRAY ABOUT IT: God designed prayer to be simple, not hard. The kingdom of God is, in fact, for those who would become like little children before their Father. Today, your prayers should be simple and direct, not lavish and vague. In this respect, less is more. Better a few words from an overflowing heart than a verbal dictionary emanating from a cold, religious heart. Live as a child of God, then you will be able to pray as a child, and as a child you will most assuredly be heard. (Andrew Murray) | |||
