Pray Right Now!
"Rejoicing in hope;
patient in tribulation;
continuing instant in prayer."
Romans 12: 12
During the past year, the U.S. Postal Service has grappled with
serious
delays, partially because of COVID. One Connecticut landscaper
nearly
went bankrupt because his post office box was empty for 45
days.
When he complained, postal authorities found some of the missing
mail, nearly hundreds of pieces containing checks from customers.
He's still waiting for more of the lost mail to be found.
Sometimes we feel God’s answers to prayers are lost or
delayed,
but, each comes as a special delivery at just the right moment in
His
blessed will. The King James Version tells us to be “instant in
prayer.”
We can pray in an instant, and God instantly hears. No request
is
ignored, no plea is unheard, and no prayer is unanswered if
we
pray with humble hearts in Jesus’
Name.
In this day of instant communication, nothing is
more
instant than our connection with the Heavenly
Father.
"If we are “instant” in prayer and faithful in it, every
little circumstance awakens the disposition to pray,
and desires and words are always ready."
Felix Neff
