Prayer-- Our First Line of Defence

  God loves blessing and helping His people, and He just longs for us to bring our request and needs to Him.
The problem with us though is that all to often we try to figure things out on our own, or do things our own way. ( Which then can sadly cause another host of problems.)
  And only when and after we have exhausted all other avenues and options, do we then finally turn to prayer.


Of if we would only learn to use prayer as our first line of defence, instead of our very last resort!

  "Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because you ask not.

" Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lust.'' James 5:2-3

 " If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you." John 15:7

  "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:6-7 NIV


 
  ~ Remember, there is nothing to great that God can not handle, or too small that he does not care! He truly cares about every little detail about our lives. Believe me, I have seen it in my own life
