Prayer: Listening Before Running Away
I read a great quote on prayer,“The difficulty with almost everyone who prays is that he says "amen" and runs away before God has a chance to answer. Listening to God is far more important than giving Him our ideas. “Prayer is a two-way communication relationship with God. Most of us just pray to convey our hearts and desires, without giving God the opportunity to speak to us. Do we always give God the opportunity to speak to us in our prayers? Give time to listen to God's voice when we pray, and God will reveal many things to our lives.“But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.”Matthew 6:6 ESVBe Nice. Grace Wins.
