MAGNIFICENT PRAYER by NICK HARRISON
My expectation is from Him. Psalm 62:5
Every true prayer is not only an acknowledgment of God
as the only sufficient One, but it demands an attitude of
entire expectation from Him on the part of the pray-er. This
is essential if normal relations are to exist between God and man. An answer to prayer, when the expectation is not wholly toward God, would only divert the confidence of the pray-er, and foster a false trust in his mind.
It is necessary for the Christian, therefore, in the interests of his own understanding of God and truth, to come directly to God, acknowledging His omnipotence, and looking to Him as alone sufficient to do the thing for which he is praying.
(Lewis Sperry Chafer)
PRAY ABOUT IT: Our expectation in prayer must be from Him alone. Don't look to the natural means to your answer, for you may be disappointed. God will work on your behalf when you depend on Him alone.
If the Christian looks for anything from the world, it is a
poor expectation indeed. But if he looks to God for the
supply of his wants, whether in temporal or spiritual
blessings, his expectation will not be a vain one.
(Charles Haddon Spurgeon) |
