Make prayer a priority and see how your life will change.
God doesn't need our prayers; we do.
Through prayer, we open the resources of heaven to receive blessings, help, strength, and peace.
Through prayer, the Holy Spirit works in us, and we see our own pride, weakness, and hidden sins.
Prayer is the bridge that connects us to God.
But have you noticed?
The less you pray, the less you want to pray.
Because when you don't pray, your spirit loses God's presence and becomes weak. The enemy will seize the opportunity.
It takes hold of you, leads you into temptation, and pulls you further and further away from God.
If you don't feel like praying right now, you have fallen into Satan's temptation.
TikTok, Instagram, Netflix…
All kinds of entertainment and information that you can't stop watching.
Sometimes you think to yourself, ""I should take a moment to pray to God, maybe read the Bible for a bit.""
But the next second, an entertaining show grabs your attention again.
You push aside the conviction in your heart and the Holy Spirit's prompting.
You feel God less and less, and you may even lose the desire to draw near to Him.
But the Bible says: ""Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walks about, seeking whom he may devour."" (1 Peter 5:8).
The devil uses all sorts of ways to try to devour you, but God is always trying to save you. He is always calling out to you.
Can you hear His voice?
If you can't, it's because you haven't been still for too long.
This world is too noisy.
Short videos, gossip, entertainment, news… the voice of sin is so loud that it drowns out God's voice.
This is Satan's scheme—
to make you think you've found relaxation, freedom, and happiness,
while you quietly lose your peace, joy, the meaning of your life, and even eternal life.
Not praying is the beginning of a spiritual collapse.
Resuming prayer is how you return to God and rediscover His presence, guidance, and protection.
""Pray without ceasing"" (1 Thessalonians 5:17). This is your only true way out.
God says, "After God created mankind and granted them spirits, He enjoined them that if they did not call out to Him, then they would not be able to connect with His Spirit and, thus, the “satellite television” from heaven would be impossible to receive on earth. When God is no longer in people’s spirits, there is an empty seat left for other things, and Satan thus seizes the opportunity to get in. When people contact God with their hearts, Satan immediately panics and rushes to escape. Through mankind’s cries, God gives them what they need, but He does not at first “reside” within them. He simply gives them constant aid because of their cries, and from that internal strength people gain hardiness, so that Satan dares not come in to “play” at its will. So, if people continuously connect with God’s Spirit, Satan does not dare to come and cause disturbances. Without Satan’s disturbances, all people’s lives are normal, and God then has the opportunity to work unhindered within them. As such, what God wants to do can be achieved through humans.""
So, make prayer a priority in your day and watch how God will turn your life around.
