Daily Devotion -What Type Of Prayer?

Good evening to all the readers. I've been away from everyone since Sunday afternoon, August 28,2011 due to a power (Electricity) outage. There was one cell phone shared between My wife, Elder Vivian and I and we sure did use it wisely. Unlimited calls nihgtly and on weekends sure does make a big difference. The past two nights were spent in darkness (aided by a number of dim flashlights and candles) and this reminded me of Psalm 139:11, 12. God's presence was surely felt in the midst of the darkness these past two nights.
Thank God for our son, Kwayne who came by to check on us and took our perishables to keep in his freezer as well as kept the cellphone charged for us. God bless his big heart. I would like to share a devotion with you from one of the many devetional booklets I read daily. It is entitled ... Trash Prayers ...

Paul wrote, "I urge that petitions, prayers, requests, and thanksgiving be offered to God for all people." -1 Timothy 2:1 (TEV).

Walking is my favorite exercise, both physical and spiritual. While walking I can talk to God and give thanks for my health that allows me to take this walk, for a wonderful job that still leaves enough time each day for a walk, for the motivation to spend that ime walking and for ... trash. Trash has changed my way of thinking. Not long ago, I saw trash only as an eyesore on the lovely green grass or the freshly fallen snow. I saw only how it interrupted my walk because of my having to stop and pick it up and carry it to a trash can. One day after stretching to reach a discarded beer can, I thought of persons who struggled with alcohol addiction and prayed that God would heal them. As I picked up a fast-food restaurant wrapper, I prayed for persons who dont have enough to eat or who need to learn to eat more healthily.

An empty diaper box reminded me of young parents who may be struggling to hold their family together, and I prayed for God's strength to uphold them. With each piece of trash I became aware of new persons and their needs. I have become grateful for the way God shows us where we can serve.  I wish those who throw out trash would learn that God's beautiful world is not a garbage dump. But I will continue to use their trash as a reminder to pray for them and for others.

Prayer: Keeper of our souls thank You for knowing us intimately and for speaking to us in ways You know we will hear. Amen.

Encouragement: Let us while praying for all others, not forget garbage and recycle collectors.

Daily Devotion -The True Worshipper

God is a Spirit, and they that worship Him must worship in Spirit and in Truth -John 4:24.

You know we praise God for all He's done, all He's doing and all we know He will do for us. It's thanksgiving and praise. Thank You Jesus. Thank You Lord. Hallelujah! We give You the glory, the honor and the praise for all You've done and what You're about to do our God. We exalt You God. We lift up Your holy and righteous name because we know when we exalt You, when we lift You up; You will draw us to You. Draw us to You Lord Jesus, our God. That is praise and God indwells or inhabits the praise of His people. He doesn't just visit but He sojourns, He dwells, He lives there permanently. He will never leave us or forsake us.

Now when we praise for a reasonable time in God's presence, we get ushered into the state of worship. There in His presence it is more than emotions flaring. It is more than a spirit of thanksgiving and praise. It is where we're not just thankful, appreciative or grateful for what's been done or what's being done but because we know who He is. We worship Him because we're aware that it is our duty. It is why we were created. So we worship in spite of...  Lord even though I'm going through this situation right now, I know You're able. I believe You will. Even if I have to go all the way through and not be delivered out of this before, I give You my true worship in the name of Jesus Christ. I worship You God. I adore You God. I worship You God in Spirit and in Truth Lord! I will give You all my worship God, regardless of my situation. Regardless of my circumstance I know who You are. I know You're the God that is in full control of all situations and circumstances not only on earth but in the entire universe. We give You all our worship because You're deserving of it Lord.

We worship You God! We worship You! We worship Christ our Lord! Lord we don't understand everything we go through and even when we pray for understanding and still don't see clearly even though you're showing us what we need to know, we're still going to worship you because You are still God. When You're the only one who can help and it seems the deliverance is delayed we're gonna still worship because we know You are an ontime God... Yes, true worshippers are who He seeks to worship Him. Be a true worshipper today.

Prayer: Lord draw us to You and bring out true and spiritual worship in us we pray. Amen.

Encouragement: Be a true and spiritual worshipper. The Lord will seek you out.
