EPH.6:18 “Pray in the Spirit at all times with all kinds of prayers, asking for everything you need. To do this you must always be ready and never give up. And always pray for all God's people.”
We see 7 INSTRUCTIONS: 1. Pray “in the Spirit” = let God lead you. Listen to impressions! Now! Things that come to your mind, people that are on your heart. When the Holy Spirit puts an idea in your mind or a person on your heart, stop and pray. 2. At all times = There is no bad time! Always a good idea to pray. 3. With all kinds of = a prayer for every emotion...& situation . The Book of Psalms has prayers of complaining…crying out…comforting...confessing…clarifying...celebration

When I pray :
I look backwards to the cross. THE CROSS REMINDS ME OF 3 THINGS How deeply God loves me How costly evil and sin is How completely I’m forgiven 1 Peter 1:18-19 says this,” God paid a ransom to save you…God paid a ransom to save you from the empty life…God paid a ransom to save you from the empty life… He paid for you with the precious lifeblood of Christ, the sinless, spotless Lamb of God.” How much are you worth? Look at the cross. God sent his own Son. He came to earth to die for you. Because God is multidimensional I’m never alone.
I am never, never, never alone, because he’s in every dimension at the same time. He’s in the past, he’s in the present and he’s in the future. He’s here. He’s there. He’s in heaven. He’s on earth. He’s in the spirit world. He’s in your world and my world. Here’s what David says, Psalm 139:7-12 (TEV) “ Where could I go to escape from you? Where could I get away from your presence? If I went up to heaven, you would be there; if I lay down in the world of the dead, you would be there. If I flew away beyond the east or lived in the farthest place in the west, you would be there to lead me, you would be there to help me. 1 I could ask the darkness to hide me or the light around me to turn into night, but even darkness is not dark for you, and the night is as bright as the day. Darkness and light are the same to you. “
John 3:8 says this, Jesus is talking. He says, “ The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you don’t know where the wind comes from or where it’s going. That is the way with everybody born of the Holy Spirit.” You know what he is saying? “ You can’t put the Holy Spirit in a box. You can’t control Him. The Holy Spirit is multidimensional. Job 9:10-11, he’s talking about the Spirit.”He does wonders that cannot be understood; he does so many miracles, they cannot be counted. When he passes me, I can’t see him and when he goes by me. I don’t recognize him! I don’t recognize him.”
The fact that God can be God and God can come to earth and be human means he’s multidimensional. The proof is in the fact of Jesus Christ and the Bible says about Jesus, Hebrews 13:8, “ Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever.” Do you know anybody like that ? |
