PRAY TO GOD TODAY

Luke 18:1-7 Contemporary English Version (CEV)

18 Jesus told his disciples a story about how they should keep on praying and never give up:

²In a town there was once a judge who didn’t fear God or care about people. ³In that same town there was a widow who kept going to the judge and saying, “Make sure that I get fair treatment in court.”

⁴For a while the judge refused to do anything. Finally, he said to himself, “Even though I don’t fear God or care about people, ⁵I will help this widow because she keeps on bothering me. If I don’t help her, she will wear me out.”

⁶The Lord said:

Think about what that crooked judge said. ⁷Won’t God protect his chosen ones who pray to him day and night? Won’t he be concerned for them?

Luke 18:1-7 Complete Jewish Bible (CJB)

18 Then Yeshua told his talmidim a parable, in order to impress on them that they must always keep praying and not lose heart. ²“In a certain town, there was a judge who neither feared God nor respected other people. ³There was also in that town a widow who kept coming to him and saying, ‘Give me a judgment against the man who is trying to ruin me.’ ⁴For a long time he refused; but after awhile, he said to himself, ‘I don’t fear God, and I don’t respect other people; ⁵but because this widow is such a nudnik, I will see to it that she gets justice — otherwise, she’ll keep coming and pestering me till she wears me out!’”

⁶Then the Lord commented, “Notice what this corrupt judge says. ⁷Now won’t God grant justice to his chosen people who cry out to him day and night? Is he delaying long over them?

DON’T STOP PRAYING NO MATTER WHAT!

TO GOD BE THE GLORY!!!

Please forgive me Oh LORD for approaching this day without first approaching you, my FATHER.

I mistakenly rose this morning thinking that this day was mine and that I was entitled to go about in it as I pleased. I am sorry Father. Please forgive this immature and slow-witted child. I ignorantly and foolishly went forth in my own strength, knowledge, wisdom, understanding and power. Please forgive me OH GOD! I am disgusted at myself and my arrogance is a stench in my own nostrils. My intelligence is too retarded, my strength is too feeble and my righteousness is as dung. Oh Wretched Soul Am I. LORD PLEASE HAVE MERCY ON THIS SENSELESS CHILD.

I acknowledge and praise YOU as my HEAVENLY FATHER and I am exceedingly joyful and grateful to be counted as one of your hired servants – not worthy to sit at your table as a child or as a guest but as a lowly and much scorned dog that happily gathers the crumbs that fall from his master’s table.

OH LORD PLEASE HAVE MERCY ON ME!

FATHER, I thank you for your love and mercy that watches over me and your kindness and generosity that sustains me even now. Before I can ask, you have already given and provided. What an Awesome FATHER you are!

I Love YOU with my whole heart and desire to be just like you.

Please go with me wherever I may go and grant me your favor and keep my mind and heart away from evil.

Help me to believe and be attentive to your teachings and to hear the voice of Your HOLY SPIRIT as I attempt to navigate and pass through this treacherous and evil land.

I don’t want to go without YOU DADDY. I need YOU. I can’t make it without YOU Oh LORD. I am utterly destroyed without YOUR POWERFUL Right HAND Upholding me. I Need You FATHER YAHWEH! I NEED YOU NOW!!!

In Jesus Christ Name I pray.

Amen.

TO GOD BE THE GLORY!
