Praying His Word
|
Can we live without hope? Not very well. And the hope from God is unsurpassed. It's not a maybe, it's sure and certain. Hope gives life to everything we do. It increases our trust in God, it increases our love for others. We can't have too much of it. Of course, this hope is so powerful because it's not a thing - it's a "Who"! It's Jesus Christ himself. God's desire is to give us this joyful, confident anticipation when he calls us into a relationship with his Son. These prayers have been created that we might have an ongoing conversation with the One who gives us hope and is our hope. Each prayer is an opportunity for us to respond to him in light of his gift.
This prayer book is unusual. If you've used a devotional, you know that, normally, we read it and we're done. Our hearts may or may not connect with what we've read. But these 31 prayers are not designed for passive reading. There are four parts each day: (1) a selected passage of Scripture, (2) a short comment that helps to understand and appreciate what the passage is saying, (3) a reflective question that causes a person to stop and think, (4) a prayer which incorporates whatever the reflective question unearthed.
The reflective question makes all the difference. That's where the Holy Spirit works. He takes that passage of the Word of God and begins to move in our hearts. As we ask ourselves the reflective question with an attitude of openness to the Holy Spirit's promptings, we discover a more honest awareness of our own hearts, its needs, its desires, and we see more clearly into the character and goodness of God. And then, by the work of the Spirit with the Word, we find ourselves wrapped into a richer appreciation of God himself and his care for us.
This is volume 3 in a growing list of "31 day prayer books" from the series "Praying His Word."
