July 6, 2019 Spirit Meat Daily Devotional : Topic - LET YOUR PRAYER CARRY AN ADDRESS - LUKE 18:35-43; 11:1-4
Whenever you write a letter that you intend to post, one thing you do not fail to do is to address the envelope which defines exactly where you want the letter to go. It enables the postman to drop your letter at the intended destination; it is the same with prayer. Your prayer must be addressed to the One who can answer it.
Discussing a problem with someone or going through counseling is not the same as praying. Weeping or crying does not equal praying as well. Truly God sees your desperate situation, mannerism and pain but he won’t assume that you want him to intervene. He will ask you, “What exactly do you want me to do? Do you want me to be involved?” You may even religiously say, “God sees what I am going through, why is he not doing something?” He didn’t assume the blind man wanted to be healed (Luke 18:41).
God does not assume you want him to be involved or do anything until you address your prayer (not your complaint) to him. Every time you pray, let your prayer be addressed to God, your Father. Jesus said “When you pray say, our Father…” Our Father is the address that every prayer God will hear must carry. Stop praying into the atmosphere, stop praying also to men that cannot help or answer your prayer. Address your prayer to God.
PRAYER: Lord Jesus, I ask that You come and take preeminence in my life’s situations and circumstances. I will not be stranded in Jesus’ name. Amen!
