One of the most popular movies in America Hollywood
It’s about prayer.
The new film, “War Room,” by brothers Alex and Stephen
Kendrick (“Fireproof,” Courageous”) is about a well-off couple who find
healing to their broken marriage through the power of prayer.
Oh, and Beth Moore makes an appearance in the film, too.
But the main idea is that prayer is a weapon we use to fight
this war called life. In fact, God does the fighting for us.
Prayer is powerful
because God is powerful! He’s the one who makes real and lasting changes in
people’s lives. He’s the one who helps us to forgive when we simply do not feel
like it. He mends broken hearts and shattered lives.
I’ve learned this in my own life too. When we choose to make
prayer a priority we are really choosing to make God our first priority.
Prayer doesn’t have to be complicated. It is simply a
one-on-one conversation with your Creator.
You can build your relationship with God as you would with a
close friend. Talk, listen, and find out more about His character. You’ll gain
insight, wisdom, and strength to face life’s challenges. Ask Him to help you with every area of your life. Thank God for all
He has done for you.
You may not always have a large block of time to pray. But
make every effort to be alone with God in a quiet place, and then pray
throughout the day as you are able, whether you’re folding laundry, talking a
walk, or taking a coffee break at work.
Sometimes you might just need to offer up a short, “Help me,
Lord!” prayer before you walk into a meeting or a messy kid’s room.
Choose to make prayer a priority every day. And watch what God does in your life, and in the lives of those you love.
