Radical Prayer

in #religion6 years ago

When we pray 'Hallowed be Thy Name' big things happen. Jesus included us as children of God when He started the Lord's prayer with 'OUR Father.' When we don't pray we are quitting on God, but He never quits on us. The gospel calls us to die to self and enter a relationship with God and regular intense prayer is a big part of that relationship.

Pray radically to love radically. To love like Christ we must pray like Christ. To be like Christ we must pray like Christ. It is easy to get caught up in doing our own will instead of God's will and how do we know God's will if we don't have a prayer life?

God our Father is our good good Father. He is NOT our paramedic. Develop your prayer life now before you have an emergency in your life. Radical prayer means you know you have nothing to offer in your works, but by grace are reliant and saved, so it is we should pray to keep developing our relationship with God the Father, Jesus the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Luke 11:1-4

1 And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a
certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples
said unto him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also
taught his disciples.
2 And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our
Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven,
so in earth.
3 Give us day by day our daily bread.
4 And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every
one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into
temptation; but deliver us from evil.

Luke 11:9-13

9 And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given
you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall
be opened unto you.
10 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that
seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall
be opened.
11 If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a
father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a
fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent?
12 Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a
scorpion?
13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good
gifts unto your children: how much more shall your
heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that
ask him?

Thank You! ⚜

When you pray like it all depends on God, He shows up in your situation. Pray radically.
Thanks for sharing

Thanks for sharing a good post!

@deathlyhorror Today the teaching has been the maximum, as my friend says the pastor of my church,

prayer is the oil of the heart, and you manage to connect with the Lord.

Thanks for sharing these words. Best regards

A model of deep prayer that Christ left us to maintain the victory won by Him on the cross of Calvary. Blessings brother.

Am so inspired, motivated, rebuked greatly by this portion of your message.

I've realised a need to step up on my prayer life. The time is up and Jesus is soon coming back. I need to be firmly rooted in christ and that is all possible through consistent heartfelt prayers(radicle prayer)

Thanks brother @deathlyhorror for sharing.

So glad it made a difference for you. God Bless You

Prayer is interesting and gives you direction always. It is us talking to God and Him talking back to us. It's a two way thing and not just a one way thing which a lot of person's mistaken it to be, in fact it is a precious relationship and should be guided jealously.

thanks for sharing

O, let the place of secret prayer become to me the most beloved spot on earth.

I like that quote.

Good post ...Thanks for sharing it.

Prayer is the master key.

Its our means of communication with the father.

Hello dear friend @deathlyhorror that is what we want to die knowing that we go with God is the best reward and pray every day. Blessings

Amen like that is to die to what we are to see what God has for us, which is better than what we want, blessings

Yea,thats true,we should pray according to God our fathers will.

Good! Thanks for sharing

A needed reminder for us all. Thanks @deathlyhorror

  • Attended a Calvary Chapel church in Greeley, CO when lived there.
    • Are you involved with the church you linked to in Colorado Springs?

God Bless

Yes, Calvary Worship Center, Colorado Springs, CO. We have a good teacher of the Bible in our pastor.

That's great!

Pray radically to love radically. To love like Christ we must pray like Christ. To be like Christ we must pray like Christ

This is why the apostles were called Christians in the first place because they behaved like Christ. During Christ stay on earth, He never joked with His prayers and we have to do same.

Thank you for this great post as usual! God bless you

What a beautiful message @deathlyhorror.
And what reason do you have when you say, how to know what God's will is if we do not develop a life of prayer?
Good message, you have made me reflect.
