The Bible:God's Blueprint for Our Lives

by Henrietta Mears Some years ago, a New Testament was sent to a notorious criminal while he was awaiting execution for murder. Although he refused to read it, he was nevertheless curious about what was in it. One day as he was looking over his gift, he happened to read Luke 9:56: “The Son of Man did not come to destroy men’s lives but to save them.” Evidently these are the words of someone who…

Something special from the devotional I'm reading today. A good reminder:

Prayer is Something We Can All Use More Of

Prayer isn’t just for the most spiritual Christians. Prayer is something all of us can learn to do more of, and the more we learn the better off we will be. 

Henrietta Mears once said, “Christianity isn’t adding a burden to your life, it is adding power.” 

Does your Christian life seem like one that is full of the power of God? I hope you can experience God’s power in your faith in a greater and greater way throughout your life. A big part of this will be learning to seek God in prayer, to pray according to the Word of God, and to submit and surrender to God more fully in our lives.

It’s been said, “When you make prayer your habit, miracles will become your lifestyle.” There is a definite connection between praying and communing with God more, and breakthroughs in all areas of our lives. 

This is available to you starting right now, and it’s available to all who will avail themselves to pray and seek God.

“As you walk with Jesus, resting your head on His heart, you will learn to know His Word, His will, and His ways. 

You will want to obey Him, not out of forced compliance, but out of heartfelt connection. Your joy will abound as you remain in His love.”
