In His Presence: Why We Pray

Apostle Grace Lubega

Jeremiah 33:1-3(KJV), Moreover the word of the Lord came unto Jeremiah the second time, while he was yet shut up in the court of the prison, saying, Thus saith the Lord the maker thereof, the Lord that formed it, to establish it; the Lord is his name; Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.

God appeared to Jeremiah while he was in prison and instructed him thus, “Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.”

It was an easy thing for God to get him out of prison but, his chains were not the issue. His concern was that Jeremiah should pray that He (God) show him great and mighty things.

What does this teach us? When you go into the presence of God, forget your problems and hunger for the hidden things in Him.

Turn your eyes and ears to Him until the things of this world grow strangely deem: until any issue affecting your life becomes insignificant in the light of the great revelations He releases to your spirit.

What a blessing to be a steward of eternity’s greatest secrets.

GOLDEN NUGGET:
When you go into the presence of God, forget your problems and hunger for the hidden things in Him.

PRAYER: Father, I thank you for your instruction on prayer. I seek you for the things that are fenced in; the depths that define who you are; the great and mighty things that I do not know of. None of my circumstances can take me off this course. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
