I have never seen in my entire life as a believer so much explosive, chaotic religious confusion. Mass hysteria has taken over the most veteranized believers, and extreme emotionalism now reigns as king. It reminds me exactly of what happened that day in Ephesus after Paul cast out a spirit of divination from a girl.
"And the whole city was filled with confusion...they rushed with one accord into the theatre...Some therefore cried one thing, and some another: for the assembly was confused: and the more part knew not wherefore they were come together." (Acts 19:29,32).
I cannot think of a better descriptive picture of what "Christian" landscape has now sadly become. Its our time right now to focus on only one Person...Jesus Christ, who's been such a good friend to us, who has walked us through everything, who fought all our battles and won them for us. Who loved us when no one else did, who forgave us and called us His friends.
There is only one Person that we must behold now, "and not another." Kingdoms come and kingdoms go, people live and people die, but Who and what is eternal is our sight.
Never forget Him for one moment, never take the eyes of your love off of Jesus Christ. One glance away is all it takes to begin the fading away of His Presence.
"All that is not God is death.”
― George MacDonald, Unspoken Sermons

There has been an ongoing drawing of God in my heart in times of prayer. I have been experiencing a moving of God about it. It is not about praying more or less but about the depths of it, the vastness of it. The unsearchable riches of it and how beyond our understanding it is.
Yesterday morning I was thinking about prayer during devotions because I had done a message on it a few days ago. I was going over things I had shared. I said to myself, How vast and eternal prayer is.
The momment I said that I heard His still small Voice within say, If you can describe heaven you will be able to describe prayer. Moments later I heard more....You grow into prayer until you become the prayer.
God wants to take you farther and deeper into prayer in ways only He can do. It is not in verbal excercises, or reading chapters of books on how to pray or go deeper. Those only impede the process. Remember prayer is an eternal thing. Once you pray it remains eternal.
Begin to go beyond thin prayers hoping God will hear you. He is not a tempramental God, but a rich, full and flowing God of spiritual, ceaseless rivers and streams of life-giving waters. Start believing God for greater things, it honors Him. He deserves our believing in Him since we call ourselves believers.
Reach out to Him and watch what He will do through you. Prayer reveals Jesus Christ so That all the people of the earth may know that the Lord is God, and that there is none else.
“Prayer [is] the quiet, persistent living of our life of desire and faith in the presence of our God.”
