Candid Conversations With Abba Father!
” Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know.’
JEREMIAH 33:3
Prayer!
Growing up, I learned that prayer has different steps- acknowledgment, confession, thanksgiving,
supplication, and thanksgiving. I followed this routine almost every day in leading individual prayers, family, or general prayers and at some point, it felt selfish because all I did was thank God and tell Him what I needed.
It didn’t feel like He understood me or wanted to hear me, neither did it feel like I cared about what He had to say concerning my never-ending requests. It simply felt like He was that “Big God” up there that was just waiting for my requests in order to choose which and which not to answer.
But now, I’ve realized (the eyes of my understanding have been enlightened) that prayer is more of a means of
communication. A two-way process of speaking and hearing between you and your Father- Abba. It is that one thing that is capable of helping us to see beyond ourselves and focus on what matters instead.
Prayer is sweet (smiles). It is pouring out your heart to God and resting in Him, waiting for responses, and walking in them. Prayer in simple terms is talking and listening to Abba/having candid conversations with Him. It is reading the Word and living the Word. It is knowing Abba, continually tarrying in His presence, enjoying His company, and walking in His will. Prayer is so powerful it is a channel through which we get to know God better and vice versa.
