Bible Note: Good morning! Let's look at it this way...Are you married? Consider that we are married to the Holy Spirit and those intimate times we can let our hairdown, we can share those thoughts and feelings we can't share with others. We can cry, we can become vulnerable..here we are open and uninhibited by the restrictions of 'corporate'prayer. When I was a new born believer, corporate prayer seemed hard to me. I did not feel like I was part of it but merely an observer. I would try to join but my faith was not developed enough to pray boldly and confidently with others. I personally was shy and self concious that I would 'pray wrong'. And yes there were times when I knew I was not in the right spirit and chose not to pray. But you must search inward with those questions, and repent if it is rebellion. Yes, I recognize (inward witness, not feeling) His presence all the time now and pray with boldness and confidence that he hears me. I feel His presence often. We are a vessel for Him to work and speak through and the less there is of me, the more there is of Him. I heard a sermon by Mark Chirona that really impressed my thinking and may help you understand. In the Song of Solomon the Shulamite begins by expressing My beloved is mine and I am His. She progresses to I am my beloved and he is mine. She ends with the love Christ has for us.. I AM BY BELOVED'S. When we get there our pride and fears vanish in light of the love of God. I hope this helps! |
