Precious friends, please be Very RICHLY Encouraged And Edified In
God's Word Of Truth!:
“We need to take charge of our spiritual lives. We quench the Spirit when we
allow no time for God because of a busy lifestyle. We should not find time but,
with Job’s heart, prioritize time for God to speak to us by His Word, that
We do so, not as a legalistic discipline, but because we know the Lord only
wants what is best for us and that He cares deeply about our attitudes,
character, and the direction of our lives. We do so because the Lord wants us
to know Him, and knowing Him is something in which to glory (Jer. 9:23-24)…
...’Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit...’ (Eph. 6:18).
The strength of the Christian life is dependence on God. Prayer is about
expressed dependence. There is never a moment in the life of a believer
when we don’t need the Lord….
...Scripture challenges us to pray always and to pray in everything (Phil. 4:6;
Psa. 62:8). We ‘quench not the Spirit’ when we faithfully take everything
directly to the Lord in prayer, and we rely on His power and wisdom.
Paul prayed for the Ephesians that God would grant them ‘to be strengthened
with might by His Spirit in the inner man’ (Eph. 3:16). God is our strength
(Psa. 18:2). The way we are strengthened by the Spirit in the inner man is
by nearness to God...
...May we ‘quench not the Spirit’ by submitting our hearts to God, opening,
trusting, and rightly dividing the Word, making time for God, and praying
faithfully, so that we allow the Spirit’s fire to give us a zeal for the things of
God, lead us into greater holiness, and conform us to the image of Christ.”
