The Journey - 3

It has been a while, no excuses...

Prayer is the first logical step in this journey. Some would argue FAITH should be that first step of understanding, but truly you already have faith. It has been given to you already.
But we shall see that all soon, because prayer is tied to faith.

Prayer is nothing more than communion with God the triune God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Communicating with Him is utmost in life. It is like the air we breathe. We bring our petitions, etc to Him and He exchanges it for His answers…. Life, peace, wisdom, etc. Whatever it is we need, He supplies it. Thus we are strengthened by this communion.. He wants so much to be a part of our life that He has chosen to dwell with us. That is only as we invited Him in at our point of conversion. SOZO.

But what we as Christians don’t realize initially is that when we invited Christ into our hearts as Lord and Saviour, He literally immersed us into the Godhead, filling us up with Himself. There was a blending… a melding of two minds, two lives. A joint union and a joint participation. The closest representation we have is our marriage ceremony and the consequent life thereafter.
