“Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me” (Psalm 51:11)
I - Do Not Joke
With Your Quiet Time - Your quiet time is when you pray.
There are 3 important prayer principles:
1.
Do not worry .
Instead pray.
2.
Don’t quit . Pray persistently. “ As for me,
I will call upon God; and the
Lord shall save me. Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice.” (Psalm 55:16-17)
3.
Don’t doubt.
Pray positively. Alway push! PUSH
means:
Pray Until Something Happen! “But
let him ask in faith, not wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the
sea driven with the wind and tossed. For
let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.” (James 1:6-7).
II – Do Not Neglect The Fellowship Of The Saints – “Not
forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so
much the more, as ye see the day
approaching.” (Hebrews 10:25). “ For if I build again the things which I
destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.” (Galatians 2:18).
III – Always Hunger And Thirst For God – There are many
benefits of staying close to God:
1.
Your case
will be given priority. “If ye walk in my statutes and keep my commandments,
and do them; then will I give you rain in due season, and the land shall yield
her increase, and the trees of the filed shall yield their fruit.” (Leviticus 26:3-4).
2.
Your prayers will be answered - “He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.” (Psalm 91:15).
3.
Your life will never get misled - “In all thy ways acknowledge him, and He
shall direct thy paths.” (Proverbs 3:6).
4.
Your life will be prosperous - “This book of the law shall not depart out of
thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate
therein day and night, that thou mayest
observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way
prosperous, and then thou shalt have
good success.” (Joshua 1:8).
5.
You will experience overflowing blessings – “But
seek ye first the kingdom of God, and all these things shall be added unto you.”
(Matthew 6:33).
6.
Your life will be fruitful - “Abide
in me, and I in you. As the branch
cannot bear fruit of itself, except it
abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him,
the same bringeth forth much fruit:
for without me ye can do nothing.”
(John 15:4-5).
