The Habit of Prayer a Christ centred approach

Welcome to another episode of the We Believe Podcast with pastor A. Today we look at one habit that characterised the life of Christ on Earth.

 

Jesus was characterised by a HABIT of prayer throughout his ministry here on earth. For example Mark 1:35

• Before he could start his ministry, he fasted and prayed for 40 days
• In preparation for the cross he prayed 3 times
• On the cross he prayed
• He taught us to pray
• He illustrated the power of persistent prayer for justice in Luke 18

 

 

To be effective in matters of life or career. We need to look unto Jesus and do as he did. We need to also cultivate a life characterised by the habit of prayer.

 

Prayer is a habit because:

• discipline  is required
• Commitment is required
• Consistency is required

 

Prayer is a Godly habit that can be cultivated. The advantage of this habit is:

• gets you to receive the attention of God
• gets you to appropriate the promises of God
• gets you to align yourself with the Will and purpose of God
• charges up your faith and transforms dreams into reality
• persistent prayer transforms you to become determined and tenacious
• Jesus wants us to watch and pray, it pleases God
• other habits that have a positive impact in our lives and ministry are birthed in prayer
• prayer has the potential to move the arm that moves the whole world
• prayer can help us achieve justice  for ourselves, families, companies, colleagues and even for the poor.

 

The most important prayer you will ever make in your life is the prayer of salvation. That is to ask Jesus Christ to be your Lord and Saviour. That is to ask Jesus to be in charge of your life, agreeing with him that you need him to help you to steer your life to the right direction. Let us make a prayer of salvation according to Romans 10:9-10

 

If you have made this prayer, you are saved and therefore you are now born again, and therefore a son of God. A joint heir with Christ and therefore your life is new and God will make things around you new.
