MGD: Have You Prayed Today? - 1

This is the day the Lord has made. We will

be glad and rejoice in it. Shalom precires one God

richly bless you for tuning into Radio ACAI today for

our morning Glory devotion. Privilege to be facilitating today's episode

our pastor and missus Brucemith from Harvard Shapel International Commercy.

Let us kind of share a word of prayer. Gracious Father,

we thank you for the privilege of life. We thank

you for your word that is coming to us. We

pray then you open up our hearts to receive faith

in Jesus name. Amen. Let's can you take a conversion

from Josh chapter one, verse eight. This book of the

Law shall not depart out of my mouth, but I

shall meditate in a day and night that I may

observe to do according to all that is thretten in it.

For then I will make my way prosperous, and then

I will have good success. Amen. The thing for today's

devotion is have you prayed today? Have you prayed today?

Part one and our scripture readings will be taken from

Mark chapter one, verse thirty five and first the Salonius

chapter five, verse seventeen. Mark chapter one, verse thirty five,

and first Thessalonians chapter five, verse seventeen. I'll be reading

from the New King James version Mark, chapter one, verse

thirty five. Now in the morning, having raised a long

while before daylight, he went out and departed to a

solitary place, and there he prayed Amen. First the Salonian

shotter five seventeen. Pray without season, beloved. Here ends the

reading of the Word of the Lord, and all shall respond.

Towns be to God. Have you prayed today? Part? One?

In today's first world, the rush to leave home early

to be traffic, the pressure of getting the children ready

for school on time, the demand to meet deadlines at work,

et cetera. It has become a common phenomenon for the

twenty first century believer to trade his or her prayer

life to meet with the increasing expectations. Prayer has lost

its relevance in those Christian homes, and many believers have

their prayer orters broken, despite the command to keep the

altar burning day and night. The irony, however, as rightly

said by M. E. Andrews, as that there is no

other activity in life so important as that of prayer.

Every other activity depends upon prayer for its best efficiency.

Men ought to pray and not fain look Chapter eighteen,

verse one. Pray always first. Thessalonians five seventeen continue in

prayer Collosians chapter four, verse two. These instructions from the

Lord are as relevant in our day as when they

were first spoken to the hearers. Now more than ever,

we need to return to the place of prayer. When

the world is doing everything possible with the amazing innovations

and scientific breakthroughs, to make it look like we do

not need God to run our lives and the affairs

of this world, the believer needs to run back into

the arms of the Father again and again. What better

way to do this than through prayer. Prayer offers us

the opportunity not to lose sight of the relevance of

God in our lives, no matter what is happening around us.

Some one twenty seven, Verse one says, unless the Lord

builds the house, the labor in vain, who build it.

Unless the Lord gods the city, the watchman stays awake

in vain. Prayer brings us into the acknowledgment we cannot

do life on our own, that we need the help

and guidance of the Holy Spirit. To successfully navigate the

journey of life Acts Chapter seventeen, verse twenty eight. Take

prayer out of your life, and you'll become an easy

target for the enemy powers behind the scenes orchestrating happenings

in our world from the unseen realm Efficient Chapter six,

verse ten to eighteen. How then, can we ensure that

prayer becomes a man's day in our lives? Episodes two

and three of this series answers these questions. Amen, Our

memory verse for today will be taken from Psalm fifty five,

verse sixteen and seventeen, reading from the New King James

version Psalm fifty five, sixteen and seventeen. As for me,

I will call upon God and the Lord shall save

me evening and morning and afternoon. I will pray and

cry aloud, and He shall hear my voice. Amen, God,

Richly blessed you beloved for being a part of today's devotion.

We know that your life has been blessed, and as

we have been encouraged, you want to return to the

place of prayer in Jesus Mighty name, Do not change

your doll as we have carefully selected content for your

edification and for your growth. Shallo and have a blessed

and fruitful day. Amen.
