Living In An Attitude Of Prayer
The Lord spoke to my heart today through the testimony of Dr. Thomas Browne the author of a very remarkable book of wide circulation, "Religio Medice." He is a physician by profession, and the Lord empress my heart to share this to my friends and I'm praying that the Lord will also use his testimony to remind ourselves that we need to be in tune with Him. Please be reminded, that the source of our strength is not on the basis of the testimony of others but on how the Lord is working when we call upon His name. This is just for meditation and be sensitive, listen to what God wants us to be. Amen!
According to Dr. Thomas Browne; "I purpose to take occasion of praying upon the sight of any church that I may pass, that God may be worshipped there in spirit, and that souls may be saved there. I purpose to pray daily for my sick patients and for the patients of other physicians; to say at my entrance into any home, "May the peace of God abide here"; to pray, after hearing a sermon, for a blessing on God's truth and upon the messenger; to bless God, upon the sight of a beautiful person, for His creatures, and to pray for the beauty of such a soul, that God may enrich her with inward graces, and that the outward and inward may correspond; to pray God, upon the sight of a deformed person, to give them wholeness of soul, and by and by give them the beauty of the resurrection."
E. M. Bounds - what an illustration of the praying spirit! Such an attitude represents prayer without ceasing; it reveals the habit of prayer in its unceasing supplication, in its uninterrupted communion, in its constant intercession. What an illustration, too, of purpose in prayer! Of how many of us can it be said that as we pass people in the street we pray for them, or that as we enter a home or a church we remember the residents or the congregation in prayer to God?
The explanation of our thoughtlessness or forgetfulness lies in the fact that prayer, with so many of us, is simply a form of selfishness; it means asking for something for ourselves-that and nothing more. And from such an attitude we need to pray to be delivered. E. M. Bounds
Wow! God is really breaking my heart and i really really need this..Thank God for reminding myself pertaining to our attitude in prayer. Amen! God be praised!

Sing Unto The Lord
Sing unto the Lord, sing unto the Lord and praise His Holy name! Proclaim His Salvation and declare His glory every time you sing. Sing to the Lord's marvelous deeds, for He is great and worthy of praise. When you sing, remember that splendor and majesty are before Him, and strength and glory fill His sanctuary. Lead God's people, to kneel before the Lord our Maker, to Him be the glory and honor! AmenSing unto the Lord, sing unto the Lord and praise His Holy name!
