Prayer Strengthens You

ISAIAH 40:31 But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength...

Somehow, in the act of prayer we receive a transfusion of God's strength.

LUKE 22:46 "pray, lest you enter into temptation."

Being strong enables you to not enter into temptation. Time spent in prayer strengthens you spiritually. (Temptation strikes us all. But we decide whether to yield to the temptation, or not.)

JUDE 1:20 But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit,

According to Jude, praying builds you up, or edifies you. Prayer is a spiritual exercise; the more you do it the stronger you get spiritually.

Let’s enter each day with prayer and throughout the day breathe a prayer and close the night with prayer. Begin to talk to God and listen for His response, through His Word.God is not so particular about how His children visit with Him. Just do it!

Say this with me: I choose to spend time with God each day in prayer and receive God's strength and help.
