Why You Need To Meet With God

Why You Need To Meet With God

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Why do you need to meet with God? The reasons are many and can never be overemphasized, nor are they clichés. Let’s see a few.

1. God created you and only He can provide His reason for creating you

Facebook is a social media platform created by its founder to help people connect socially online. So also God created everything and everyone for a reason. As you read the word of God regularly, you will begin to understand the reason behind your existence, know if you are living according to your purpose of existence and if not, how to start walking in that purpose.

Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. – Jer 1:5, KJV

2. Time spent with God increases your spiritual muscles

Constantly being in God’s presence is one way to deal with the move of the flesh. You put the flesh under the check of the spirit. Learn to meet with God.

3. Helps you know what matters to God

Spending time with God reveals to you what truly matters to Him. God cares about people a lot. He doesn’t want anyone to perish and wants you to tell people about Him.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.John 3:16, KJV

4. You get an understanding of your identity as a child of God and the type of God you serve.

You are the child of a King – a mighty king, who made the earth so beautiful and full of many wonderful things for your benefit.

May the Lord reveal Himself more to you at every meeting time. Amen.

Prayer:
God, thank you for the benefits of spending time with you. Help me spend more time with you and at every meeting time, reveal more of you to me. Amen in Jesus name.

Action point:
Think of other benefits of being in God’s presence. Which do you like the most?

Declaration:
I am decided for Jesus. I spend quality time in his presence.

Praying For Others – Pray For Provision

Praying For Others – Pray For Provision

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Another thing you can ask God to do for people is to provide. God is our great provider, and that is the confidence you use to pray for provision for the people around you.

The bible tells us that God meets all our needs. He is able to provide our daily bread. He is able to make us lie down in green pastures. He was the One that provided manna for the children of Israel as they journeyed through the wilderness! And just like He met all the needs of the Israelites while they were on their way to the Promised land, He is able and willing to meet yours too. He gave the Israelites food, water, healing, protection, and lots more. So you must learn to pray for provision.

And my God will liberally supply (fill to the full) your every need according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

Philippians 4:19 (AMP)

Pray that God will provide for the needs of your friends, especially those whose parents are struggling to pay their fees at school. Ask that God will send help their way.

Pray for provision for neighbours who have needs too. God can do this for them. God can bring surprises their way, if only you can pray for provision. Pray for your parents. Ask that God will provide for them to provide for you and your siblings. Pray for people who are around you whose needs you can see and know of. Pray that God will give them whatever they need.

When you pray for provision for others, God will provide for you too. Besides, you don’t know who is even praying for you too. That’s just the way it works.

Remember, with God nothing is impossible. So, don’t think your prayers are in vain. God hears them all.

May the Lord answer your prayers, as you pray for provision. Amen.

Prayer:
Lord, please provide for all the people I know and don’t know who need provision of any kind. Send help to them right now. Amen.

Action point:
Start to pray for provision for others.
