*PRAY TO BE LIKE CHRIST*
*John 15:5*I AM the vine you are the branches.
*John 13:15*"For I gave you an example that you also should do as I did to you.
As branches we are to be so like the vine, so entirely identified with it, that all may see that we have the same nature, life & spirit as Jesus. When we pray for the Holy Spirit, let us not only think of a Spirit of power, but the very disposition & temperament of Christ Jesus. Ask & expect nothing less: or yourself & for all God's children, cry out for it.
*James 4:8*Draw nigh to God & He will draw to you.
The nearness of God gives rest & power in our prayers. The nearness of God is given to Him, & He will give it; "He will draw nigh to you." Then it become easy to pray in faith.
We must be trained to love, pray, wait,& believe.
*Nahum 1:7*The Lord is a good strong hold in the day of trouble; & He knoweth them that trust in Him.
*May the eyes of your heart be enlightened so you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the glorious riches of his inheritance among the saints, and what is the immeasurable greatness of His power to us who believe.*Eph 1:18-19* *When I do not know what pray, I thank You, Father, that the (Holy) Spirit comes to my aid and bears me up in my behalf He, the Holy Spirit, goes to plead in my behalf. He intercedes in my behalf in harmony with God's will.*
