Our Prayer

"Very early in the morning, while it was still dark , Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed."(Mark 1:35).  Jesus would get up while the disciples were still snoring and slip off by Himself behind a bush or a rock and pray there for hours. While they were sleeping , He was praying, Then the disciples would get up and say, "Where is the Master?" When they eventually found Him they would see him praying. They saw this every morning.  He would spend five hours with God His Father. Then he would say, "lets go to Jerusalem," where He would spend two seconds healing a blind man. Notice the ratio: He spent five hours doing one thing and a few seconds doing the other. He continually operated that way, He would spend five hours praying and two minutes casting our a demon or one minute cleansing a leper...... The church today hasn't yet understood this truth. We spend a few minutes with God, then we try to do many hours of work in His name..... We often sing, "This is the day that the Lord has made." I imagine God is saying to us, "If this is My day, then why don't you come and talk to Me about it?" We need to Ask Him for our day's agenda. We do many things in God's day that He didn't plan for us to do. One hour with God could accomplish ten hours of work because you wouldn't be dealing with trial and error any longer. God would tell you what is really important, compared to what seems urgent. God will supernaturally give you wisdom to address your situation. Prayer will enable you to think clearly and wisely.  Hours with God makes minutes with men effective.  We spend most of our time during the day trying to figure out what God wants us to do and we waste the whole day. Christ is saying to us, "I go to the Father first; I see what he's already done, and I do it."

Remember that prayer is the medium through which man discovers what God has already done in the unseen so that he can give heaven permission, through his faith, to manifest it on earth.

"Whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven" (Matt. 18;18).
