Gospel Reflections #526: A Given Privilege to Talk to God

Daniel 6:11 "Daniel knew that the king had signed the prohibition, but when he returned home, he went upstairs to his room as usual and knelt by the open window toward Jerusalem and offered prayer and praise to his God three times a day."

I believe that Daniel did not continue to pray in order to be saved, but he continued to pray because of the depth of his relationship with God.

I believe that Daniel continued to pray because his connection to God was essential to him and because of his own need.

We tend to get distracted by what is going on around us and how it affects us, and we tend not to pray.

I am sure that through prayer Daniel was able to talk to God, commune with God, and share with God.

Martin Luther said, "The devil resists with all his might the world and our efforts to keep God's law. Therefore nothing is more necessary than for us to cry out and pray continually into God's ear."Luther said, "Not because there was any merit in the act of praying, but because we found that by praying we could talk with God and everything would be set in order."It is said.

Prayer is a dialogue with God.

We are privileged to talk to God wherever we are and whatever we are doing.

God receives even our unspoken prayers.

God hears everything we say to Him in total trust, and He answers our prayers with certainty.

It is only before God that we can be who we are. And God accepts us as we are.

There we are healed, encouraged, given wisdom and courage, and filled with love to give to those around us.
