***What to Pray #1

*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.
