“But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee” (Psalm 5:11).
It’s time now for rejoicing and giving thanks for what God is going to do as we close in prayer. How often do we end up feeling defeated because we fail to pray with anticipation?
Whether we are up on the mountain top or in the lowest part of a valley, we are challenged to “Be careful for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto to God” (Philippians 4:6).
I once read, “To have harmony in your life, stay in tune with God.” Prayer is the best way to accomplish this.
In closing, develop a plan that will enable you to spend more time in prayer. Commune with Him daily. Another saying declares, “A day hemmed in prayer seldom comes unraveled.” I have found, by experience, the amount of time I spend in prayer sets the tone for my whole day. We should rejoice in the fact we have the privilege of prayer. In addition to our set time for prayer, we should stay in an attitude of prayer. We will have the assurance God is right there with us whatever we face each day.
