Dear
Friends,
I hope
you had a blessed week! The devot. for today is again on faith and prayer.
In order
for our prayers to be heard and answered according to what God thinks
is very best
for us (just as an earthly would consider their child's request and answer in
their best interest), we must not have
'active sin' in our lives-lying, ungodly 'habits' (smoking, drinking, cursing, shacking up, etc),
living
in a way that doesn't
show Christ living on the inside.
Psalm 66:18, "If I regard iniquity in my
heart, the Lord will not hear me:"
On the
other hand Isaiah 30:19 states, "he will be very gracious unto thee at the voice
of thy cry; when he shall hear it, he will answer thee."
The song
and Scripture links below share that we must keep sin out of our lives, 'keep
the way clear' in order for God to hear our prayers and answer in
a way that is best for us.
I pray you and your family have a blessed, Christ
centered weekend!
