Pivotal Praying
This was written March 1, 2013.
God has a way of surprising us in many ways than what we don't originally planned; this is what we call, God’s will…
Prayer becomes a great tool in our daily Christian living. Yes, we may sometimes fail in terms of our relationship with other people, even with ourselves, yet we should never fail in our intimacy with our one true and living God, the one who never leaves us. We have so many questions right here and there on how to fulfill the demands of this world. But then, if we truly rely on His promises all things will be in order right upon His perfect will.
Pivotal praying, this is not complicated or hard task. In applying this kind of prayer, it reveals that we indeed believe in God and in God's personal concern for our welfare and future. God will work with us where we are, and He can even weave the failures of a person with a repentant heart into something beautiful.
Many things happened that we never expected but whatever it is, no matter how difficult it will be; God is in full control. We know that what really matters is on how we respond to it. If we delight in Him, of course, it is part of His will.
God speaks to us every day. But are we listening? For thousands of years God has been speaking through the Bible. The Scriptures clearly tell us that there are certain things that are right and certain things that are wrong. There's a right way and wrong way to treat people. There's a right way and wrong way to live in society. There's a way to God and there are ways that lead to destruction. The Bible is clear concerning God's view of such things, and we would be wise to listen.
God also speaks through people, events, and circumstances. Sometimes when we're praying for direction, He answers us in the most difficult way in our behalf. We may sometimes learn some things in a very hard way. Yet, God yearns to accomplish so much more through our prayers.
Therefore, pivotal prayers come at pivotal moments. They produce pivotal decisions that result in pivotal answers.
