What does the Lord want from us?
We know how to pray for ourselves and others, but just what does our God want from us? We must understand the times and seasons by asking Him about each day. We need to be content with today and take no thought for tomorrow. We are not to nurture our tomorrows! Just like a cell phone we must be plugged in to the Power Source daily to stay charged!
He is looking for a people who are without spot and wrinkle, seeking Him first in everything. And when we pray, we must not be dull of hearing. He answers us, but are we listening? James 1:21-25 cautions us not to be deceived.
He created us for fellowship and longs to spend time with us. He misses you when you don't come around.

Will you be God?
"Don't be obsessed with getting more material things. Be relaxed with what you have. Since God assured us, "I'll never let you down, never walk off and leave you," Hebrews 13:5
God knows you by what you do, not just what you say. Our destiny is like a train track. Even when we derail, He is waiting for us to get back on track. Our destiny is fixed! The enemy may attempt to pull us off the track, but all he can do is put stumbling blocks along the way. Do we stop and try to fix things ourselves or do we ask the Lord for help? Your destiny is sure but there are seasons along the path of life. You can miss your season just like you can miss a certain date. If you don't remember Valentines Day until February 15th, you missed it, and you will pay a price! It is the same thing with God and your destiny.
When God struck Egypt, He protected His people in Goshen! God is the same yesterday, today and forever. When all hell breaks loose on the earth, we will be protected. We are now in a new season. We must make God our helper. He is demanding that we communicate with Him about everything. We don't need to consult with our family or friends, but learn to go to the Holy Spirit for answers. "In the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe." Hebrews 1:1-2 With everything going on in the world today, we must seek the Lord with all our hearts and obey Him. When Jesus went to the Father, He knew that we needed someone to be here to help us so He sent us the Holy Spirit, "And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever," John 14:16 . He said that He had to go, "Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you." John 16:7
The Holy Spirit is faithful to Jesus and will not fail to be with us and to help us! Trust Him and stay in that situation until He extricates you. The disciples found themselves in a storm where the boat was filling up with water and sinking. They judged the Lord as unfaithful and asked Him, why He didn't care that they were perishing Mark 4:36-40. He asked them where their faith was. They were looking at the waves and getting frightened much the same way that we look at the financial situation around us. Lord, don't You care that I just lost my job? Lord, don't You care that I'm losing my house? Lord, don't You care that I don't have any new clothes? We go to the bank or our credit cards and talk to everyone but the Lord! Most of us don't have faith that He will deliver us from whatever the situation. Instead, we try to figure our way out! We seem oblivious to the fact that the Lord longs to show Himself strong on our behalf! In those situations where there seems to be no way out unless God intervenes, if we allow Him to deliver us, He gets the glory! So why not let God be God?

The Invitation
All have sinned and come short of the glory of God. It is impossible to live without sinning. That’s why God provided a sacrifice, His Son. Jesus who did not sin became an eternal sacrifice for all who believe that! He died a horrible death on the cross. He paid an awful price so that you and I could be saved. If you know that you have sinned and want to be forgiven, turn from your wicked ways and accept God’s provision. Pray this simple prayer: Lord, I know that I am a sinner and I want to be forgiven. I accept Jesus as my Lord and turn from all evil. Jesus come into my heart and fill me with your precious Holy Spirit. I am born again. Thank you Lord!
You don’t have to pray it out loud or in a church, but you do need to confess it before others. If you prayed this and believed it in your heart, you are now a child of God. You are saved. You have a home in Heaven and all the angels are rejoicing because you have turned to God! Get a bible and begin reading it. The book of John is a great place to start. Be sure to find others to share your faith with and find a place where you can worship God with others of like and precious faith. Welcome to the family of God!
