PRAYER!

Matthew 6:5-7: "And when you pray, do not be like hypocrites..standing in the synagogues and on the street corner..v7..do not keep on babbling like pagans..for they think they will be heard because of their many words and to be seen". Let me see! In our public life we are men of prayer. We pray: to open a meeting and to close a meeting, before Psalm reading, pray for offering, before the sermon an...d after the sermon, at the hospital, at the secular and sports events, before the meal and some time we create a slot in our program to include some people to pray. Hey, what about prayer in our PRIVATE LIFE. Are we men of prayer? We can fake a spiritual life by public prayer- long prayer from Genesis to Revelation. But the one who knows us the best cannot be fooled. Do we want deep spiritual lifeblood and power? It starts with a personal relationship and constant communication with him through our private prayer.
