LIVING A PRAYER

2King 4:27-37

When prayer takes hold of all there is of you, you can take hold of all you will through prayer. But prayer isn’t saying religious words with your eyes shut and a terminal “amen” attached. Real prayer is a life. It begins as an act. It grows into a habit, then into a mental attitude. Then it becomes your very life. Then the man becomes the prayer. Such prayer can raise the dead, even now, into real life.

John 15:8 By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples.

LET’S GO TO SCHOOL DAILY

Luke 9:30-37

Prayer-touch with the Father—daily, open- hearted, honest, unhurried, intimate, reverent touch—this is the secret of every needed thing. If we’d go to school daily to God, with the open Book, and learn how to pray, confidently, intelligently, like a child in simplicity, like a man in maturity, nothing could resist our touch. The life would be transfigured, and the service marked with God’s own subtle, fragrant touch.

John 15:5  “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.

THE UNFAILING JESUS

Mark 9:19-29

But Jesus never failed anybody yet. The evil spirit fled like a whipped cur at his word. The demonized boy was released from his sore bondage. The broken-hearted father, relieved, overjoyed, hurried home with the boy to his mother. The critical, sneering crowd was forced to recognize the unmatched power of Jesus. It was the close touch with his Father, insisted upon, that turned the disciples’ dismal failure into sweeping victory.

Isaiah 9:6  For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

ARE WE FAILING SOMEBODY?

Mark 9:11-18

People expect much of Jesus’ followers. They class us with him. What he did we can do, they think. They come to us expectantly, when we least think it. Without saying so, they bring their needs to us, their difficulties, temptations, hungry hearts, themselves. They expect something. They have a right to, too. Are we jailing them? and Jesus? and ourselves? Then they quit expecting if they find we haven’t anything. That’s the worst failure of all.

Psalm 103:2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:

THE STEADYING LOOK

Mark 9:2-10

Jesus was thinking of the sore test ahead for his disciples when he would go to the cross. So now he quietly drew aside the garment of his humanity and let the God within look out into their faces. And they never forgot. Peter denied, but he came back. John went in “with Jesus” that terrible betrayal night. James was among the first to give up life for his Master. We, too, need to see Jesus’ glory.
