IN ORDER FOR THE PRAYER IS NOT OBSTRUCTED

"For God's eyes fixed upon the righteous, and his ears to their pleas for help, but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil." (1 Peter 3: 12)


Bacaan tahunan: 1 Samuel 18-20; Psalm 11, 59

Have you ever felt so hard to pray? I once. And those days are horrible. I can seem are praying, try stringing sentences prayer, but actually I'm not being connected with God. The word of the Lord is in fact already warned us about this.
Just before section we read, Peter reminds the husband to love and respect his wife that his prayer is not obstructed. Then, Peter continued his advice to the whole Church in order for them to live in love and peace, away from the evil, because God will not listen to petition the wicked (v. 12). If we continue to 1 Peter 4: 7, once again we are going to find that Peter exhorted the Church to master yourself and be calm in order to pray. Can you see the resemblance? There is a way of life which hinder, there is a way of life that help us to have a good prayer life. This message is repeated Peter in his letter.
Imagine the Lord hear me pray implore peace, but every day fills my heart with mind and the disappointment and bitterness. I beg a loving relationship, while I myself didn't want to love. Ludicrous isn't it? How can I demand God heard my prayers, while my life shows that I am not serious with what I pray for? God is calling his children to live in truth. Are there any things that you have to bereskan in the middle of family, peers, Fellowship of believers, so that your prayers are not hindered? -ELS
