| Hillside above the Sea of Galilee Israel |
After telling everyone good-bye, he went up into the hills by himself to pray. Mark 6:46
Meditate
on prayer.
Jesus
liked to pray by Himself. Just Him and God together. He often rose early or
stayed up late to chat with His Father. No distractions. No one hovering around
asking questions…or even listening in. Wouldn’t you like to hear just what the
Son was saying to the Father…and the Father to the Son?
Prayer
– Lord Jesus, You are an awesome God—may Your name always be holy, not just in
my eyes, by by everyone. I’m so looking forward to seeing You, face to
face—what a great promise when Your Kingdom comes. Please forgive me for my
sins—of omission and commission. I’m only human—but I’m still responsible for
what I think, say, and do. Thanks for providing everything I need—as well as
for my family, friends, and actually everyone, too. I’m delighted that the
disciples asked You to teach them to how to pray and that the Lord’s Prayer is
recorded for us to follow as an example. “Pray like this: Our Father in heaven,
may your name be kept holy. May your Kingdom come soon. May your will be done
on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us today the food we need, and forgive us
our sins, as we have forgiven those who sin against us. And don't let us yield
to temptation, but rescue us from the evil one. Matthew 6:9-13.”
Verses
of Salvation ~ Pray in the Spirit at all times and on every occasion. Stay
alert and be persistent in your prayers for all believers everywhere. And pray
for me, too. Ask God to give me the right words so I can boldly explain God's
mysterious plan that the Good News is for Jews and Gentiles alike. Ephesians 6:18-19
