Prayer is Where It’s At!

Posted in Devotional Blog on 11-07-07

We all remember when Zach, Lisa, Screetch, Jessi, Slater, and everyone else at Bayside High School all hung out at “The Max.” That’s where it was at! I remember when I was in High school, in marching band, everyone went to the after-competition parties at other people’s houses. That’s where it was at!

For the Chrisitan – prayer is where it’s at. God has limited himself to working through us. He easily could have spoken directly to the Israelites with a loud audible voice, but instead He spoke through prophets (still does, but not exclusively). Check this verse out, God said, “I looked for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand before me . . . but I found none. So I will [destroy them].”

DID YOU GET THAT? In that verse, God looked for a man but there was no one. The Almighty Creator of the universe was looking for a man — but He found no one.

Prayer is your opportunity to connect with God in a way Angels can only dream about. God allows us to partner with Him in prayer. Do you hear me? -PARTNER with Him. That’s heavy duty stuff. I’m not just the servant of the Almighty God — I’m His partner in fulfilling His will on the earth. This occurs during prayer.

Prayer is where it’s at, man. Prayer is where the action is.
