When we use Scripture
in our prayer it shows God we have thought through our praises and petitions.
To pray we need to
know the heart of God.
What He has planned
for us.
His promises to us.
We need to align our
prayers with the plump line of God’s Word.
God’s Word gives our
prayers life, infusing vitality into our praises and petitions.
As well as bringing
life to the thoughts that frame our petitions.
“The word of God is
living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword…” (Heb. 4:12).
God is always ready
for us.
He always wants to
listen to us.
But He also wants us
to take the time to know Him.
And that we can
achieve through the Bible.
“Dear God, I want to
know You! I want to know your word that is living and active, today in my life.
Your word is the truth that cuts through the lies and deceive in my life. It is
the bread of life that I need every day. I praise Your Word and I praise Your
name! I want to know Your heart and align myself with Your everlasting love.
Amen!”

message is part of the Prayer Monday series.
