A Devotional-Anthology by Dennis Rideout
"Have mercy upon me and hear my prayer"-Ps 4:1
"My House is the House of Prayer!"-Lk 19:46
"Watch and Pray!"-Mk 13:33
"Now I lay me down to SLEEP, I PRAY the Lord my soul to KEEP,
If I should DIE before I wake, I PRAY the Lord my soul to TAKE!"
"Prayers of a righteous man are powerful!"-Jas 5:16
"She asked to be made like her Savior; He took her right then at her word,
And sent her a heart-crushing burden till the depths of her soul were stirred.
She wanted a meek, and lowly spirit - The work He gave answered that cry...
Till someone who had once been companions, with a pitying smile passed her by.
She asked to lean hard on her Savior, he took human props quite away,
Till no earthly friend could give her comfort, and she could do nothing BUT pray!
She had prayed to be made like the Savior, and the burdens he gave her to bear...
Had been but the great Sculptor's Teaching; to help her in earnest prayer!"-Unknown
"Pray without ceasing!"-1Th 5:17
"If we think of prayer as the Breath in our lungs we think rightly. We are not concious of it, but it is always going on. Just as Jesus is always keeping us rightly "tuned" to the Father when we are in obedience to His Will. Prayer is not the exercise, but the Life! Do we really expect God to Answer prayer? Remember, everything Jesus has to Say about prayer is SUPERNATURAL!"-Oswald Chambers
"Whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you receive it, and you will!"-Mk 11:24
"If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you!"-Jn 15:7
"But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. A double minded man [is] unstable in all his ways. "-Jas 1:6-8
