Today’s Thought “Pursuing Hope” G. Ward

“And he told them a parable to the effect that they ought always to pray and not lose heart.” Luke 18:1

The priority of prayer proves most important for mankind when calamity strikes and although those appearing faithful orchestrate tremendous prayer circles, theirs more make demands on Holy God, reminding Him of what’s in the words He wrote. The essence of supplications and requests (Phil.4:5-6) is synonymous with plea in accordance to HIS will promoted throughout the Word of God. What it is not are selfish ploys in reprieve after having tried varied resources that made Holy God last.

Although we’ve been horribly guilty, the opportunity to reconcile continues (Ac.3:19). “Softly and Tenderly Jesus is Calling,” heed in total dependence before calamity strikes (cf. Pr.1:24-29).

Happy Thursday!
