The last few fews I taken a bus every other saturday to go to Church to pray on sturday. THe frist God put on my heart to go, I wanted to go, yet I dodn't. My reason was this. 1)It will take to long, a hour there on the bus and a hour home and hour there. 2) I will be the only one there, what it the piont, of going and praying alone. although I have done it many times, 3) My lack of faith, will God really use this time? can God work through just one person? Even with all my reasoning, God said Go!. SO I went go to share with some on the way. When I got there, God did work in my heart, to what a fool I was. Of course time in prayer is ever wasted. He also showed, that he desire a heart that is willing to pay the cost to pray, and not just do when it is easy. I know that I have fallen in that these last few months.
But what do you do when there is no prayer meeting? Do we give up what do we do? God has maybe it clear we are not to give, but seek to pray with others even more. Even if just one on one.
SO with the local Church, may God move us as a praying people in our own Churchs..
May we pray that God bring humble hearts who will be willing to give something to take time to pray.
May God move us to reach out to others and pray with them
May show us where we have said we are too busy to pray with others
May God move in us to have a desire to pray with others, and be real and honest in our prayers with others
May God brake our show of prayer, but sweet and honest heart crys
there are many reason why don't have time to pray, but we need God. That is our greatest need.
Lets keep praying for our Churchs and for all those who have no prayer meeting DON"T give up. Wait pray and seek God.
In Christ
