How can I get God’s attention when I pray?
JULY 5
“And I set my face unto the Lord God, to seek by prayer, and supplications, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes.”
Only prayer can hold back the floodtide of sin in our nation and the floodtide of judgment. Only prayer can release the cleansing and healing hand of God. And not just any prayer. It’s not the arithmetic of our prayers; that is, how many they are. It’s not the geometry of our prayer, how long it might be. It’s not the rhetoric of our prayer, how eloquent it may be. It’s not the music of our prayer, how sweet our voice. Not the logic of our prayer, how eloquent we become. It’s not the method of our prayer, how methodical we are. But it’s the faith and the fervency of our prayer that counts with God.
Father, You have said in Your Word that we are to confess our faults one to another and pray one for another that we may be healed. Lord, You have said, “The effectual fervent prayers of a righteous man availeth much.” (James 5:16) Read Daniel chapter 9 today and see this in action.
