SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS AND PRAYER

Scripture: Ephesians 1:3 “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:”

    “Go through your Bible and you will find it definitely stated that every conceivable spiritual blessing is obtained by prayer.  For example, it is in answer to prayer, as we learn from Psalm 139:23, 24 that God searches us and knows our hearts, tries us and knows our thoughts, brings to light the sin that there is in us, and delivers us from it. It is in answer to prayer as we learn from the 14th verse of the same Psalm that “the Words of our mouth and the meditation of our heart are made acceptable in God’s sight.”  It is in answer to prayer as we learn from the 25th Psalm, verses 4 and 5 that God shows us His ways and teaches us His path, and guides us in His truth.  It is in answer to prayer, as we learn from the prayer our Lord Himself taught us, that we are kept from temptation and delivered from the power of the wicked one. (Matt.15:13”  
     As we set aside a certain time for reading and studying the Bible each day, it will create in us a desire to talk to the Father.  We will realize the need and learn to pray as never before.  God has a way of inspiring us to spend more time with Him.  The more time we spend with Him, the more time we want to spend!  We yearn for the times when we can be alone  with Him and tell Him our burdens and at the same time have Him talk to us through His Word!  As we read, our hearts will burn within us to hear more and to do more for Him! 
     Do you love the Word of God?  Then you’ll love to spend time in prayer!  Do you love to pray?  Then you’ll love time spent reading the Word of God?
