“The Importance of Morning Prayer Time”

 “The Importance of Morning Prayer Time”

 

“Listen to my voice in the morning, LORD.  Each morning, I bring my requests to You and wait expectantly.”  Psalm 5:3

 

PRAYER is a CONVERSATION with the ALMIGHTY GOD. If you desire to have a MORE INTIMATE, CLOSE relationship with your HEAVENLY FATHER, then you NEED to have an ACTIVE prayer life.  You NEED to get ALONE in a private place.  Your WAR ROOM, so to speak.  And this is REALLY IMPORTANT, because there is a BATTLE going on, in the SPIRITUAL REALM, it is a BATTLE of the two forces that are FIGHTING against each other for the SOULS of MANKIND.  These forces are the FORCES of GOOD and EVIL.  And EVERYDAY mankind is attacked by the EVIL forces, this is one reason it is IMPORTANT to have a MORNING PRAYER time with your Heavenly Father.  

 

This is why the Apostle Paul tells us; “Don’t WORRY about ANYTHING; instead PRAY about EVERYTHING.  Tell God what you NEED and THANK Him for ALL He has done.”  One thing that is NEEDED for ANY TIME you PRAY is a TRUSTING HEART.  Notice, in our Psalm, verses one and two.  David says: “O LORD, hear me as I PRAY; pay attention to my groaning.  Listen to my CRY for HELP my KING and my GOD, for I PRAY to NO ONE but YOU.”   

 

At the time of his prayer, David was evidently having PROBLEMS with his enemies.  And in order to have PEACE and SAFETY, he KNEW that he COULD TRUST GOD with ANY and ALL of his situations, so he PRAYED: “LISTEN to my VOICE in the MORNING, LORD.  David KNEW that in order to be able to FACE ANY SITUATION, he MUST TRUST GOD.  And in ORDER to have PEACE about it and NOT WORRY, he PRAYED FIRST thing in the MORNING.  And HOW OFTEN did he offer up his PRAYERS?  Our Scripture says EACH MORNING he brought his REQUESTS to God and WAITED EXPECTANTLY. 

 

In order to have PEACE about the things that will come your way, you MUST have an ACTIVE PRAYER LIFE. And DEFINITELY a MORNING PRAYER TIME, so you can START a NEW DAY, having TALKED to your HEAVENLY FATHER and WHATEVER you FACE, HE’S with you and you can have a CLOSE, INTIMATE RELATIONSHIP with Him.  

 

However, if you are NOT ONE of HIS CHILDREN, your prayers won’t be heard by God, until you PRAY for FORGIVENESS of your SINFUL LIFESTYLE, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  Psalm 66:18 says:  “If I had NOT CONFESSED the SIN in my HEART, the LORD would NOT have LISTENED.”  So, if you have been CONVICTED of your SINS, and have REJECTED GOD’S SON, Jesus Christ and His FORGIVENESS, your PRAYERS AT ANY TIME of DAY or NIGHT will NOT be HEARD.  You MUST FIRST ADMIT that YOU are a SINNER in NEED of the SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST.  You MUST BELIEVE with ALL your HEART that JESUS DIED for YOU and that He is now ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God. You MUST CONFESS your SINS to Him and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  You MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your SINFUL LIFESTYLE and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  You MUST ACCEPT God’s Gift of SALVATION and start having a MORNING PRAYER TIME.  And be able to have an ETERNITY in HEAVEN with all its BLESSINGS. And ESCAPE an ETERNITY in HELL with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE once you are there.  DO this NOW while you STILL can.  He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!!  Don’t Be LEFT BEHIND!!!
