"Pray in the Spirit at
all times in every prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert and always
persevere in supplication for all the saints" (Ephesians 6:18).
At all times, I want to
pray in the Spirit. In every prayer, in every supplication, I want to pray in
the Spirit. So I need to be in constant communion with Your Spirit, continually
abiding in You and embracing Your abiding in me.
When sin breaks my
connection, convict me and lead me to repentance. When discouragement or
disappointment break my connection, hold me and remind me You're always with me.
When doubt or frustration break my connection, show me Your power to move
mountains and make a way where there seems there is no way.
I don't want to pray
out of my own thoughts or desires, not out of my own mind or will or emotions. I
don't want to pray from my own agenda or impure motives or selfish intent. I
want to pray in the Spirit. And as I do, I will "always persevere"-all by the
power of Your grace that's always sufficient for me. In Jesus' name I pray,
Amen.
Be encouraged today! In the Love
of Jesus, Tommy
