It is a command for us to Pray


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: IT IS A COMMAND FOR US TO PRAY.

happy new month friends, it's going to be your month of answer prayers. Amen
This morning I want you to know in today's meal that prayer is a commandment.

God's Word Calls Us to Pray

One key reason to pray is because God has commanded us to pray. If we are to be obedient to His will, then prayer must be part of our life in Him.
Where does the Bible call us to prayer? Several passages are relevant:

1. "Pray for those who persecute you" –Matthew 5:44 (NIV) [1]

2. "And when you pray …" –Matthew 6:5

3. "This, then, is how you should pray …" –Matthew 6:9

4. "Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer." –Romans 12:12

5. "And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests." –Ephesians 6:18

6. "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." –Philippians 4:6

7. "Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful." –Colossians 4:2

8. "Pray continually" -1 Thessalonians 5:17

9. "I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone …" -1 Timothy 2:1

Prayer is an act of obedience. God calls us to pray and we must respond.
If you are not praying you are not obeying God's command and you are not following Jesus step.
Learn to commit everything to God's in prayer through Jesus Christ and you will see a positive changes in your life.

A lots of Christian are so lazy when it comes to issue of prayer, that is why they became victim of fake pastors and prophet, because they are looking for a prophet that will pray and fast and keep vigil for them.

We must be careful so as not to fall victim, if you call call on your God he will answer you.
If you must seek the assistance of "man of God" please be sure it's not man of Satan in disguise.

LET US PRAY
This month you will have a grand shaking miracle that will turn your life around in Jesus Name

HAPPY NEW MONTH FRIENDS
