Become

​Love you all, praying for you. 
 
I just love God’s Word.  It gives you what you need.  It tells you what you need now.  It tells you what you will need, and it tells you what to do now, so you’ll be ready then.  Psalms 109:4 – In return for my friendship they accuse me, but I am a man of prayer.  There is coming a time when you will need to be a man of prayer, a woman of prayer.  Are you a man of prayer?  What is a man of prayer?  Not just a man or woman who prays.  Those kind pray when they need it, when they’re desperate.  But if they don’t need it, they don’t pray.  A man who prays versus a man of prayer – is what you do sometimes, or all the time.  When trouble comes, when the accuser comes, when friends betray you… You need to be a man of prayer – by then, not starting then.  Pray now, become a man of prayer, become a woman of prayer, and you’ll be ready then.  Not just one who prays every once in a while, but whose life is a life of prayer.  Whose mind and heart are in constant conversation with the LORD who knows what you need before you ask, and who answers prayer!    Pray in the Spirit, Pray in the understanding.  Ask God what He wants you to pray.  Pray His will, not your wishes.  Pray for others, not just yourself.  Ask God to pray through you.  Ask God for His heart, and align your prayers with what is on His Heart.  Maybe even ask Him the first PiVAT Question.  God, what do you need most from you today?  And what do you need most from me today?  Praying that you will review The Prayer Packet…  Praying that your life will become a constant conversation with Him.  That you will know His heart, and pray His will, that you will become not someone who prays but a man of prayer, a woman of prayer – so when that time comes, you’ll be one, not need to be one.   Just start now.  Ask God what Time each day He wants you to pray, and then pray in every transition – every change of activity throughout the day.  You’ll get His wisdom for what’s coming next, you’ll be reminded of his heart, not just for you, but his heart for everyone you talk to.  You don’t become… in one day.  Just start today, and let God lead you to become a man of prayer, a woman of prayer.  So His will is what you pray, so you grow in faith, so you’ll be ready for that day.   
 
Love you all,
