As
we dwell in Him and His word in us we pray His will not ours. So many
pray their will and see it not come to pass. His words become our
words. We become like Him. Not of ourselves. We find it better to pray
for others needs. To love others as ourselves. When we pray our prayers
are answered.
Mark 9:23 (KJV) 23Jesus said unto
him, If
thou canst believe, all things are possible to him
that believeth.
Prayer is the key. The strength of a man is in the hidden place of prayer. His prayer life is his strength.
