Do you struggle to pray? Do you wish your prayer life is
stronger? Many people desire to pray effectively but don’t know how to overcome
the weakness they experience while praying. This post gives the solution to
this challenge.
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me –
Philippians 4:13 (NKJV)
It shall
come to pass in that day that his burden will be taken away from your shoulder,
and his yoke from your neck, and the yoke will be destroyed because of the
anointing oil – Isaiah 10:27 (NKJV)
Likewise the Spirit also helps in our
weaknesses… - Romans 8:26 (NKJV)
He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood
abides in Me, and I in him. As the living Father sent Me, and I live
because of the Father, so he who feeds on Me will live because of Me – John 6:56-57
(NKJV)
The importance of prayer cannot be
overemphasized. A solid prayer life is
the foundation for a victorious Christian life. The enemy is aware of this,
which is why he would do everything possible to hinder you from praying. One
major way he achieves this is through the flesh.
Your spirit may be willing but if your
flesh is weak, you will have a struggle to pray effectively. Therefore, the
need for you to subdue the flesh becomes very crucial. The flesh wants to sleep
when you want to pray. It wants to eat when you are fasting and praying. It
wants to do any other thing other than empower your spirit.
You cannot subdue the flesh by your own
strength. You need divine help to overcome the weakness in your prayer life.
The
divine helps:

Help of
Jesus – Ask Jesus to help you subdue your flesh so that you can pray well.
You can pray effectively when Jesus strengthens
you. Jesus prayed and strengthened Peter so he could lead the disciples and
spread the gospel efficiently. Peter who was not able to stand for Christ
before a maiden was now able to stand for Him before multitudes, including the
priests. Read more...
