TOPIC: *PRAYER CHANGES ALL THINGS* (1)
*Reference*: Luke 18:1
‘And he spake a parable unto them to this end , that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;’
Our Lord Jesus Christ here warns us about the danger of giving up on prayers.
Sadly, we are living in times where all believers want are quick fixes, and hardly want to labour in prayers.
Truth is that most believers have little understanding or appreciation of the power and efficacy of continuos and consistent prayers, and as such easily give up when they believe their prayers are not having the desired effect or impact.
According to the late Myles Monroe, God committed dominion of the earth to man after creation. God could therefore intervene on issues on Earth only when Man invites Him to do so. In order words, prayers are the only license that authorizes God to intervene in human affairs.
Hear our Lord Jesus Christ.
‘Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, ......‘ Rev:3:20
As powerful as our Jesus Christ is, he will not force His way into our hearts, but will only do so when we grant Him access.
Reminds me so much of the relationship l had with my daughters whilst they lived with me.. I virtually owned the house, yet that did not give me unfettered access into their rooms. At any point in time that l needed to enter into their rooms, l had to knock, and wait till l am giving permission to do so!
Prayer is therefore a believer’s invitation and permission, which he grants God, for Him to intervene in his life or situation. It’s a lifestyle, not some kind of game, gimmick or lottery. It must be premised on the conviction that ‘no prayer, no breakfast.’
For till prayer becomes a lifestyle, nothing changes. We must always remember that ‘prayer changes all things.’ Shalom
