and
After We Have Prayed.
Then We Can Wait For The Lord

Prayer Does Not Mean Asking God
For All Kinds Of Things
We Want,

Our Ordinary Views Of Prayer
Are Not Found
In The New Testament.
We Look Upon Prayer
As A Means
For Getting Something
For Ourselves;
The Bible’s Idea Of Prayer
Is
That We May Get To Know
God Himself.
Oswald Chambers
* * * * *
We Hear It Said
That A Man Will Suffer
In His Life
If He Does Not Pray;
I Question It.
What Will Suffer
Is The Life Of The Son Of God
Within Him,
Which Is Nourished
Not By Food
but
By Prayer…
Prayer Is The Way
The Life Of God Is Nourished.
Oswald Chambers

Prayer Is Not A Way
Of Making Use Of God;
Prayer Is A Way
Of Offering Ourselves
To God
In Order That
He Should Be Able
To Make Use Of Us…
William Barclay
* * * * *
We Lean To Our Own Understanding,
or
We Bank On Service
and
Do Away With Prayer,
and
Consequently By Succeeding
In The External
We Fail In The Eternal,
because
In The Eternal
We Succeed Only
By Prevailing Prayer.
Oswald Chambers

When Man Works,

on
Which God’s Power Can Come.

We Have To Pray
With Our Eyes On God,
Not On The Difficulties.
Oswald Chambers
* * * * *
Beware
In Your Prayers,
Above Everything Else,
Of Limiting God,
Not Only By Unbelief,
but
By Fancying That You Know
What He Can Do.
Expect Unexpected Things,
Above All That We Ask Or Think’.
Each Time,
Before You Intercede,
Be Quiet First,
and
Worship God In His Glory.
Think Of What He Can Do,
and
How He Delights
To Hear The Prayers
Of His Redeemed People.
Think Of Your Place
and
Privilege In Christ,
and
Expect Great Things!”
