Becoming Spiritually Successful

DAY 5 OF 5

"Prayer"

What kind of pressure do you face at your job? How do you deal with pressure in your relationship? Is peer pressure a problem? In science the concept of pressure in relation to volume also applies in the spiritual world; the more the volume, the less the pressure, and the less the volume, the more the pressure. This is what it means: increase the volume of your prayers, and see the pressure in your life go down.

One spiritual tool any child of God can consider as a successful key to life is prayer. When you’re a Christian, prayer becomes a lifelong devotion that constantly requires you to understand the word of God and know the will of God. 

For a Christian, prayer is one of the most powerful spiritual ingredients that sustain you in this world, which is why you don’t wait for problems before you start doing it. In fact, a prayerless Christian is a borderline Christian who gets worried with things the Bible says are bound to happen. But a prayerful Christian sees those circumstances and knows that God has already taken care of them in the spirit realm, so he or she goes about praising and thanking God.

As good as your prayer sounds, as eloquent as you may be in prayer, it has no bearing on the result; rather, it will be more effective if you’re righteous in the eyes of God. The scripture says a prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective: God speaks to His children when we diligently seek and desire to know Him, and when we want assurance and confirmation in our pursuit of what is good in His eyes, He will speak.

I want to challenge you to make prayer the cornerstone of your walk with God. There’s too much power in prayer for us to overlook it. The name Jesus has the power to free anything that is bound. It’s amazing what you can accomplish with prayer when you use the name Jesus Christ.  In other words, you say farewell to sorrow as you bring it all to Jesus in prayer. 

Finally, when you pray, picture God ordering one of His many angels to bring your request. Be happy, express your gratitude, give thanks, and sing praise to God for answered prayer. Get up and expect things to change for good, amen.
