WHY DO MEN PRAY?

Prayer is the fundamental part of a man's life to be fulfilled.Where there is no prayer there is no fulfillment.
Prayer can affect your life and change the atmosphere that is contrary to your destiny.Work cannot do the work of prayers because when men work,men work but when men pray God works.Prayer is the life wire of Christianity and prayer is the master key to every great achievement of life.
Why do men pray? why do men need to embark on prayer for there survival in this world that is full of evil?
To prosper in life,you need to pray and seek the face of the God of Israel diligently.To excellently excel in life you have to be a man of prayer.
Then why do men Pray?

  • Men pray because prayer changes the date of death -Isa.38:1-5.From this scripture, we can see that king Hezekiah refused to keep silent,he refused to reside to fate,he refused to bow to the pool of negative prophesies.
  • Men pray because prayer changes the negative destiny-1chronicles4:9-10.The man here was tagged the child of sorrow because he was born by a mother who went through terrible pain at his child birth but when he sought the God that has the destiny of a man in His hand.His negative destiny was turned to the glorious destiny.
  • Men pray because prayer makes the barren to become fruitful-1Sam.1:9-17.Hannah was barren for several decades.She was a laughing stock to her concubine and people around her.She has become the forgotten and rejected by the people of her days.But the day she prayed her heart out,God put an end to every barrenness in her life and she became the mother of a wonderful seven children.
  • Men pray because prayer makes a man to sing a new song.1Sam.2:2-5.When you pray fervently,God will make you to sing a new song.he ensures that your mouth is filled with laughter and joy unspeakable.
  • Men pray because prayer brings deliverance from the bondage of the enemy.There are so many people that are in the bondage of the enemy through out there lives.Some are in the bondage of fear of death,bondage of fear of failure and every sort of bondage.But when the vanguard of prayer is raised consistently,they will be delivered completely.  
The more we understand why do men pray, the more we give ourselves to prayer and changes the world for better.Hence keep on praying without ceasing and you will see the effects of prayer manifesting in your life and doings.

SET YOURSELF FREE

Why must we put yoke over our life when we have choices of being free?Why do we prefer the life of bondage when the life of freedom available?
Every country of the world has its own national holiday commemorating the country's freedom and independence,but their is a kind of freedom we have neglected unattended to for so long a time as if it's not the most important freedom of them all.This freedom is called personal freedom-the kind of freedom that resides in each of us.
Everybody needs freedom but the kind of freedom we choose influences our lives positively or negatively.Hence we have to make conscious efforts to set ourself free from all bolts and nuts of life.
Set yourself free from the past.The past may either make you or mar you.The victory and achievement of yesterday is fixed in your memory and you have built a monument round about it.Yesterday's failure is not a cogent reason for you to make a mountain of pity around yourself.You still have a better day ahead of you.Live in today and move on with your life.
Set yourself free from dream killers.There are things flying all around you to make you doubt your abilities and dreams.They are there to terminate your dreams of what you can become in life and future,they are dream killers!Loose yourself from them and fan your dreams into flame.
Set yourself free from fear.The fear of unknown, the fear of future,the fear of death,the fear of failure and the fear of success.There is no future in fear and fear fly round about us everyday.Do not allow fear to rob you of your greater days ahead of you.
Set yourself free from emotional torture.Why must you allow yourself to be tortured when you have a glorious life ahead of you to nurture?Block every avenue to emotion torture and live your life to the fullest.
Set yourself free simply by turning to God.The only person that can change both the latitude and longitude of your life is God.God is the ultimate and without Him there is no freedom anywhere.He own your past,present and future.He knows the end from the beginning and He knows your where the keys to your freedom is hidden.You can set yourself free..... if you really want to.It's all about totally turning yourself to God and let Him set you on next phase of your life.
