Devocionales de Alfonso Gomez Plaza: CHRISTIAN DEVOTIONAL- THE POWER OF PRAYER

THE POWER OF PRAYER

Communication, an essential element for any relationship, is what we neglect the most.

WE are not aware of all that we lose by not having good communication. The biggest current social conflicts is due to lack of communication. God wisely gave us a mouth and two ears, it was not for some whim, it has a purpose. Within the communication process, God has given us prayer as a system to dialogue with him. I honestly do not know the exact formula to pray, but an essential and necessary element is faith. The very word of God tells us that without faith it is impossible to please God and that he is a rewarder of those who seek him. According to a Stanford University study, only ten percent of active Christians in a congregation have a daily prayer life. Thirty percent do it once a week, counting on the day of worship, the rest, that is, sixty percent not even attending worship, make a prayer to God and that their attendance is more by tradition than by conviction . Let us remember that the power of prayer will make the difference between what we say and what we live.

"For truly I tell you that whoever says to this mountain: Get off and lie in the sea, and will not doubt in his heart, but will believe that what he says will be done, what he says will be done to him."

Mark 11. 23

Although many congregations still use a prayer book, we could consider that there is no better prayer than the one we do naturally and we say to God with sincerity everything that is inside our hearts. In this way, with that sincerity we will be just as Christ told us: children in front of him, in this way we can even feel that he is lifting us up in his embraces and we count on all his support and response to obtain everything we need so that we live according to his purposes in glory.

"Therefore, I tell you that whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you will receive it, and it will come to you."

Mark 11. 24

Unfortunately this verse is very misunderstood and misinterpreted. Many people take it as a license to be spoiled and ask whatever they want. The misunderstanding of this passage has made many consider God as the genie of the lamp which grants and grants capricious wishes. Let's be careful not to be idolaters and with it, get confused because God is our Father who takes care of us and provides us so that we fulfil his purposes in our lives.

God bless you.
