Prayer is no doubt an essential means of communication from
men to God. More often than not, we all pray at different times with varying
duration. Prayer helps to stop and destroy the activities of the devil. However,
when it seems you have prayed and avoided ‘little foxes’ like sins and doubts
that destroy the vine; and nothing is happening, then what else? Try worship.
This testimony is that of a man who in the year 2005 was
preparing for the entrance examination into the university. A day before the
exam, he had a dream that the police arrested him in the exam hall but he woke
up and prayed vehemently. The next day he went for his exam, started and about
one hour into the exam, another man surfaced who had the same exam number with
him. The invigilator came to the man writing the exam, threatened to call the
police and sent him out without listening to his explanation. The new comer was
told to continue from where he stopped. The first question in our minds would
be, didn’t he pray well? I am sure he did.
On leaving the premises of the exam, he headed for the
church. He said he was in church for about four hours just worshipping God and
rolling on the floor. He was not complaining or grumbling but just worshipping.
That day this scripture “for the Father is SEEKING such to worship Him” was
fulfilled in his life. He said the Lord came to him that night and said “I will
not put you to shame”. And He did as promised. Two days to the release of the
results, God gave him a job he never applied for and he also graduated from the
university last year (2013).
Are you weary in prayers? If yes, try to worship Him from the
depth of your heart irrespective of the situation. He will be the one seeking
you not you seeking Him.
But the hour is coming, and now is when the true worshippers
will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is SEEKING such to
worship Him.
John 4:23
NKJV
The LORD shall visit us in Jesus’ name. Amen.
