We have (during these too-busy days that we "live" in) what I call, a devotion dilemma. Yes, sadly, it seems that people these days have little or no time at all for praying. However, if we are to ever learn to pray, it will take time and plenty of it. If we are to ever know God in ever-increasing intimacy it will require seasons of prayer in His presence, not just seconds of prayer as we wrecklessly race into the future. Let us take time immediately for intimacy with Immanuel or time will take us ultimately from His presence for eternity.
Lord, teach us TO pray... -- Luke 11:1 (NIV)
IF MY PEOPLE... WILL? I WILL! God's Promise in 2 Chron. 7:14.

Learn To Pray -- Not How, But Now!
There is no way to learn to pray but by praying.
-- Samuel Chadwick
And continue to pray as you are directed by the Holy Spirit.
-- Jude 1:20b (NLT)
Lord, teach us TO pray! Lord, teach us not merely how to pray, but mainly TO now pray!
Lord forbid it and Lord forgive us if we avoid praying not primarily because we don't know how to pray, but because we simply and sadly won't take time to pray. Even a child knows how to pray. Help us to become as children and to pray now. In the name of Jesus. Amen.
IF MY PEOPLE... WILL? I WILL! God's Promise in 2 Chron. 7:14.
