Be sensitive.

“And he taketh with him Peter and James and John, and began to be sore amazed, and to be very heavy” Mark 14:33(KJV)

Today, I want you to learn something from our opening scripture that when you are feeling heavy, that is, when you are feeling down, or depressed it is important you spend time praying at such times. It means that there is something happening somewhere that you are unaware of but your spirit is picking it. When Jesus felt heavy in His Spirit, He went to pray.   

So don’t sit there saying, “I don’t know why I am feeling depressed this morning.” Take out some time to pray in the Holy Ghost until that depression lifts. Luke 22:44(BBE) tells us what Jesus did when He felt troubled, “And being in great trouble of soul, the force of his prayer became stronger, and great drops, like blood, came from him, falling to the earth” 

When you sense fear or you feel troubled in your spirit, pray because somebody may be in danger who needs your prayer at that time. It may be because of something they are going through, or maybe death is about to hit someone and your spirit has picked it, so spend time praying whenever you feel such heaviness in your spirit because someone’s life may just depend on it.

Prayer
Precious Father help me to always be sensitive to the promptings of your Spirit to pray, thank you Father for I am strengthened in my inward man by your Spirit to always obey such promptings in Jesus Name. Amen.
