Blessings are Not Like Sneezing
You are at a spiritual retreat in the mountains with others who want to experience a fuller Christian life.
For the duration of the retreat everyone has been matched with a mentor.
Yours is in her seventies, and she has been touching lives for God longer than you've been alive.
She has just knelt down to pray.
You can't resist to listen to what she will pray for and to know how she starts her prayer.
How exactly does a giant of faith begin her prayer? You wonder will she pray for revival/ Pray for the hungry around the world/ Pray for the suffering/.
[SHE PRAYS] O Lord, I beg you first and for most this morning, please open my way, please bless me and rescuer my life from all troubles which come from Satan.
The great men of faith think differently from the rest.
Is it possible that God wants you to be selfish in your prayers/ to ask for more and more again from your Lord/ I've met so many earnest Christians who take it as a sign of immaturity to think such thoughts? They assume they will seem impolite or greedy, if they ask God for too many blessings.
Do you think like that/ I want to show you that such a prayer is not the self-centered act, it might appear, but a supremely spiritual one and exactly the kind of request our Father longs to hear.
Referring to Proverbs 'the Lords blessings is our greatest wealth; all our work adds nothing to it [Proverbs 10:22'] Why not make it a lifelong commitment to ask God everyday to bless you? God's nature is to bless, through the simple believing praying you can change you future you can change what happens one minute from now.
