To your prayers, do you perceive Heaven saying, ‘AMEN!’,
Or maybe silence, or worse yet, grunts every now and then??
With some prayers, are you sometimes convicted,
That with The Lord’s Will, they may be conflicted??
What if you could know The Lord’s Will perfectly,
And discern Heaven’s response with clarity?
What impact(s) might that have on your prayer life?
To pray more fervently, would you be enticed?
Some folks might say, ‘By faith, I know already,’
Because my prayer life is strong and steady.’
Others might say, ‘I just pray and move on,
And then just wait until His answers dawn.’
Still some might say, ‘In The Spirit I only pray,
Thus, by faith, from His perfect Will, I do not stray.’
Since Paul wrote believers have ‘The Mind of Christ’, 1
Shouldn’t there be some clarity in our prayer life?
Indeed! At least that’s what I thought, that is until…
The Lord revealed insights about …His Mind and Will.
They caused me to stop, repent and ponder,
About some of my …prayer life blunders!
Assess your recent prayers and those you have heard,
And see if you agree with what in me He stirred. 2
Then reflect on the likely expectations,
Of folks who sought your help in their petitions.
