Seek God in prayer.

"The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: …"

Psalm 10:4

Every day without prayer is a boast against God. What that means is that, living without prayer is like living your life like the wicked as seen in our opening scripture. Secondly, we also learn from our opening scripture that anyone who does not have a plan in his life for time spent with God in prayer is proud. The Contemporary English Version puts Psalm 10:4 this way, "The wicked are too proud to turn to you …"

2 Chronicles 7:14 says, "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, …" This shows us that only humble people pray. Do not be too busy to the point that you cannot schedule time in prayer to God daily. Martin Luther of Germany said he was so busy that he had to spend three hours in prayer before starting the day's job.

You should humble yourself by scheduling time with God in prayer every day. You could start by scheduling fifteen or thirty minutes or even an hour. You don't have to begin by praying three hours like Martin Luther, but that will be great if you choose to start from there.

One of the most important things in developing intimacy with God in prayer is to maintain a consistency.

Therefore if you want to begin to build a prayer life, you could start with fifteen minutes every day. As you maintain your consistency, your fervency and passion will begin to increase and you will begin to grow in your time in prayer.

Prayer.

Dear Father, I thank you for a release of grace for consistency in my regimen for fellowship and communion with you daily in Jesus Name. Amen.
