“If you ask me to pray for you, and I am not complete in
Christ, my prayer accomplishes nothing. But if I am complete in Christ, my
prayer brings victory all the time. Prayer is effective only when there is
completeness— “take up the whole armor of God….”
[…] “We know that all things work together for good to those
who love God…” (Romans 8:28)— to those who remain true to God’s perfect will—
His calling in Christ Jesus.” CHAMBERS
How important is it to be right before God before we stand
before God? James 5:16 says that the prayers of a “righteous man” avails
much. Our righteousness is in Jesus Christ. When we approach God in prayer we should
always be aware that we can only because of Jesus Christ. We should not become spiritually lazy and
think that the condition of our heart does not matter. That our hands need not be clean … We must be
mindful that when we pray, we stand on holy ground. They say that familiarity breeds
contempt. We must be careful in our
attitude towards Jehovah God. Yes, we
can cry Abba – Father, but it must with respect and the awareness that our Abba
is holy and wants us to be as well. ELGIN
