Encouragement
“And when YOU (Believers) pray, YOU (Believers) shall NOT be like the hypocrites. For they (the hypocrites) love to pray standing in the Synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they (the hypocrites) may be seen by Men. Assuredly, I (Jesus Christ) say to YOU (Believers), they (the hypocrites) have their reward. But YOU (Believers), when YOU (Believers) pray, go into your room, and when YOU (Believers) have shut your door, pray to Your Father (God Almighty), who is in The Secret Place; and Your Father (God Almighty) who SEES in secret, will Reward YOU (Believers) Openly. And when YOU (Believers) pray, do NOT use vain repetitions, as the heathen do. For they (the heathen) think that they (the heathen) will be heard, for their (the heathen) many words. Therefore do NOT be like them (the hypocrites OR the heathen). For Your Father (God Almighty) KNOWS, the things YOU (Believers) have need of before YOU (Believers) ask Him (God Almighty).”
“So, I (Jesus Christ) say to YOU (Believers), ask, and it will be given to YOU (Believers); seek, and YOU (Believers) will find; knock, and it will be opened to YOU (Believers). For EVERYONE (Believers) who asks receives, and he (Believers) who seeks finds, and to him (Believers) who knocks, it will be opened.”
Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything, give thanks; for this is The Will of God (God Almighty), in Christ Jesus, for YOU (Believers).
Therefore, I (Jesus Christ) say to YOU (Believers), whatever things YOU (Believers) ask when YOU (Believers) pray, BELIEVE that YOU (Believers) receive them, and YOU (Believers) will have them.
“Most assuredly, I (Jesus Christ) say to YOU (Believers), he (Believers) who BELIEVES in Me (Jesus Christ), The Works that I (Jesus Christ) do, he (Believers) will do also; and Greater Works than these, he (Believers) will do, because I (Jesus Christ) go to My Father (God Almighty). And whatever YOU (Believers) ask in My (Jesus Christ’s) Name, that I (Jesus Christ) will do, that The Father (God Almighty), may be Glorified in The Son (Jesus Christ). If YOU (Believers) ask anything in My (Jesus Christ’s) Name, I (Jesus Christ) will do it.”
“YOU (Believers) did NOT choose Me (Jesus Christ), but I (Jesus Christ) Chose YOU (Believers) and Appointed YOU (Believers) that YOU (Believers) should go and bear Fruit, and that Your (Believers) Fruit should remain, that whatever YOU (Believers) ask The Father (God Almighty), in My (Jesus Christ’s) Name, He (God Almighty) may give YOU (Believers).”
“When YOU (Believers) pray, go into your room, and when YOU (Believers) have shut your door, pray to Your Father (God Almighty), who is in The Secret Place; and Your Father (God Almighty) who SEES in secret, will Reward YOU (Believers) Openly.”
Fellow Believers, does this give YOU (Believers) an idea of the significance of prayer? It is Our (Believers) One-on-One Time, with God Almighty Himself! To ask Him (God Almighty) anything, that’s on Your (Believers) Mind, that’s right, anything. Now, I realize that Jesus Christ Abides within Us (Believers), through The Holy Spirit. So, We (Believers) can converse with Him (Jesus Christ) anytime, day or night, twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. He (Jesus Christ) NEVER leaves Our (Believers) Side. But We (Believers) MUST make the effort, take that step toward Him (God Almighty). We (Believers) MUST walk into His (God Almighty) Presence, by Communing with Him (God Almighty) through prayer. Remember, “for Your Father (God Almighty) KNOWS, the things YOU (Believers) have need of before YOU (Believers) ask Him (God Almighty).” So, pour out Your (Believers) Heart to Him (God Almighty). Let Him (God Almighty) know your hopes, your dreams, your doubts, your fears, confess your sins and ask for His (God Almighty) Forgiveness, which He (God Almighty) will forgive, We (Believers) have His Son’s (Jesus Christ’s) Word. Not only will He (God Almighty) forgive them (your sins), but He (God Almighty) will also forget them (your sins), i.e. NOT hold them (your sins) against YOU (Believers), Ever!
Have YOU (Believers) ever thought of prayer, as God Almighty waiting patiently, for YOU (Believers) to show up? That’s right, Your Heavenly Father (God Almighty), waits patiently for YOU (Believers) to arrive, just so He (God Almighty) can spend some quality time with YOU (Believers). That’s how much God Almighty Loves YOU (Believers)! That’s how important, how vital, Prayer MUST be in Our (Believers) Daily Lives!
Right now, God Almighty is waiting patiently for YOU (Believers), how long will YOU (Believers) keep Him (God Almighty) waiting?
