Subject: Asking many to pray for us? |
Bible Note: Hank: Thanks for your excellent answer to Justme's question. Heard on Christian radio: When most of our prayers sound like this, "Father, give me this and give me that. Give me, give me, give me!" what we are actually saying to God is: "Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me." Luke 15:12 In other words, Give me my inheritance NOW. When we do this, it is obvious that our interest in God is not for Himself, but for what He can give us or do for us. Grace to you, John |
