Scripture of the Day - April 2, 2012

Ephesians 6:18b Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, 

To pray in the Spirit is to truly pray the will of God. Often we come to God expecting Him to get in sync with our agenda, and we can be quite disappointed when He doesn't. But if we walk with Him daily, if we know Him through His Word, we will know what to pray for and He will answer our prayers. Sometimes our humanity gets in the way and God will say no or wait; but if we are walking with Him we will understand that He knows what's best and we won't be disillusioned or hurt when the answer is no.

That being said, often we don't know intellectually what to pray; but when we come to Him, in the Spirit, that very Spirit will pray through us.

Romans 8:26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

Do we understand what a wonderful God we have? Do we understand how much He loves us and is willing to help us? He didn't die on Calvary for nothing. He didn't die for us then abandon us. He is there always. He will never leave us nor forsake us. Pray always folks, pray always. Stay close to Him and He will protect you. Trust Him and He will see you through.
