Men,
What does more prayer look like?
More prayer looks like each Christ-follower driven by God-given faith. That faith initiates, propels, sustains, and motivates Spirit-led, Bible-based, Kingdom-focused prayer in Jesus name.
More prayer looks like a young husband who can’t stop thinking about his new beautiful bride—just like we can’t stop thinking about Jesus and what is important to Jesus.
More prayer looks like praying alone, like Jesus praying all night on a mountain.
More prayer looks like praying with others, like Jesus praying with His disciples in the Garden of Gethsemane.
More prayer looks like prayer driven by righteous anger like Jesus as He drove out the money-changers from the Temple.
More prayer looks like heart-ache as Jesus demonstrated “offering both requests and supplications, with loud cries and tears, to the one who was able to save him from death and he was heard because of his devotion.” Heb. 5:7
More prayer looks like “knowing that you know that you know” God is with you.
More prayer looks like truly standing on God’s promises—not letting go—knowing He will do it!
More prayer looks like we have been with Jesus.
More prayer looks like husbands fighting for their wives, fathers and mothers fighting for their children, and wives fighting for their husbands.
More prayer looks like every Christ-follower consumed with deeper satisfaction in Jesus.
More prayer looks like the church truly living and behaving like the Spirit-empowered world-changer she really is!
More prayer looks like “Paul-like” life change of people in our families, communities, city, region, and the world.
More prayer looks like “pursuing His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to us, as well.” Matt 6:33
More prayer looks like “the God of endurance and comfort giving us unity with one another in accordance with Christ Jesus, so that together we may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.” Rom 15:5-6
More prayer looks like David asking the Father to, “Teach me your way O Lord; I will walk in Your truth; Unite my heart to fear your name. I will give thanks to you, O my Lord, with all my heart, and I will glorify your name forever.” Ps 86:11-12
Father, we ask for You to re-define our lives as lives of prayer, lives of whole-hearts after You, lives of Your kingdom as our priority in Jesus name, Amen.
Blessings, Steve
