Do not be anxious about anything, but in every
situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your
requests to God.
6 لاَ تَقْلَقُوا مِنْ جِهَةِ أَيِّ شَيْءٍ، بَلْ فِي
كُلِّ أَمْرٍ لِتَكُنْ طَلِبَاتُكُمْ مَعْرُوفَةً لَدَى اللهِ،
بِالصَّلاَةِ وَالدُّعَاءِ، مَعَ الشُّكْرِ.
Philippians 4:6
Do
you think we should pray about every single detail in our lives? God did not
exclude anything. What would a child pray about? Jesus said in Mark10:15 “Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of
God like a little child will never enter it.” In
Psalm 37:23(NLT): The LORD directs the steps of the godly. He delights
in every detail of their lives.
There
are some commandments and guidelines that God has given us, so we should not
pray to God asking Him obvious things like: God should I love my neighbour?
Because He told us we should, however we can pray to God to help us love them.
Other than God’s commandments and guidelines we can and should pray for every
detail in our life.
We
seem to keep prayers only for big demands or crisis. Praying for and about
everything keeps us in constant communication and connection with God and that
pleases His heart, and is very useful for us.
I invite you to repeat the following prayer for yourself:
Abba
Father, thank You for Your unfailing, inseparable, deep and everlasting love
for me, Your abundant blessings in my life, and for the riches of Your grace
upon my life. Lord, thank You that
You love me so much that You want to fellowship with me all day and You desire
that I involve You in all my thoughts and actions. I appreciate that You are
omnipresent(available everywhere) omniscient (all knowing), and You are
interested in every detail in my life. Help me Lord to develop the habit to
pray to You about every detail of my life. In the Holy Name of Jesus I pray. To Him be the glory, the power,
the dominion, the majesty and the blessings forever and ever and unto ages of
ages.
Jesus loves you,
In Him,
Wagdi Henein
