MFM Mountain Top Life Daily Devotional 3 February 2019 By Dr. D.K Olukoya – Too Busy To Pray (II)
TOPIC: Too Busy To Pray (II) (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Daily Devotional 13 February 2019)
Bible In One Year: Leviticus 14; Matthew 26:51-75
FIRE SCRIPTURE: 2 Kings 19:14-22
MEMORY VERSE: “Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.” – Philippians 4:6
The MESSAGE:
Daniel had an exalted position in government, yet he prayed without ceasing and never allowed anything to steal His time alone with God. King Hezekiah, in spite of his royal status gave prayer a priority. By the power of prayer, he reversed an unpleasant divine message given about his life. It was not just that prayer he prayed at that time saved him, it was the prayer he had been praying before. His prayerful lifestyle was also seen when he took the letter of Sennacherib to the Lord in prayer and God sent a message of comfort to him through Prophet Isaiah.
David was an exceptional king, yet he made prayer and praises his lifestyle. Jesus prayed without ceasing. Don’t be too busy to pray. Don’t ever be fooled to think that you are too big to pray. Don’t ever say you are too busy to pray. Anyone who is too big or too busy to pray is saying, in essence, that he does not need God. The day a man stops praying, he starts dying. Prayer connects a believer to God, the Source of all good things and blessings. Moses’ prayer won the battle against the Amalekites. Prayer has raised the dead. Prayer has stilled storms. Prayer parted River Jordan. Prayer made the barren woman fruitful. Prayer makes the impossible achievable. “Why worry when you can pray” is a common saying. If you are too big to pray or too busy to pray, you have every cause to worry!
