Is He always faithful?

I live in a hostile world. I call to God. To my heavenly Father I cry out. He hears me. He answers my prayers. My cry brought me right into His very presence. I can have a private audience any time I want it. He is ALWAYS faithful.

He is my rescuing knight. A mighty warrior strong and brave.  I can run to Him for my dear life.

"The goal of my spiritual life is such close identification with Jesus Christ that I will always hear God and know that God always hears me." ~Oswald Chambers

"Get into the habit of saying, “Speak, Lord,” and life will become a romance." ~~Oswald Chambers

"You must learn to wrestle against the things that hinder your communication with God." ~~Oswald Chambers

"You must learn to wrestle against the things that hinder your communication with God, and wrestle in prayer for other people; but to wrestle with God in prayer is unscriptural." ~~Oswald Chambers

"No one can pray and worry at the same time." ~~Max Lucado

"Do not be anxious about anything." ~~Apostle Paul

My part is to rejoice. God is so very good and He is always in this amazing mood. Jesus has a mission to bring Good News to me. Am I hearing bad news? It is a lie then. That is from my enemy Satan. So, I will rejoice at the good God is doing now.
 
I need to talk with my Father, ask Him for what I need, and be thankful in my conversations with Him. He knows what I need and will do more than I can imagine.
 
I don't understand it, but as a result, His peace is mine. I can rest and relax. His peace is at attention in my heart. He is protecting me and the enemy can't reach my heart.

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:4-9

 

 

Does God feel this way?

I am hoping that God doesn't feel this way when I pray. I have heard lots of prayers (including my own) that feel this way. It has me thinking for sure. I am wondering for sure.

May my prayers be a conversation (not a monologue) with my Father!!!

"Most conversations are simply monologues delivered in the presence of witnesses." -----Margaret Millar

To busy to have power

"We are too busy to pray, and so we are too busy to have power. We have a great deal of activity, but we accomplish little; many services but few conversions; much machinery but few results."

-----Reuben Archer Torrey

Be direct with God

My on my how we love to bargain. Even with God. If you ... then I will ...

Jesus says to stop that kind of behavior. We should be direct. He knows what we need. We should just ask for it.

That is what pleases Him. Directness and not a game.  

"Don't bargain with God. Be direct. Ask for what you need." ~~Jesus (Matthew 7:7)
