MATTHEW 6:6

But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret.

MATTHEW 6:6

Verse Thoughts

Prayer is one of the most vital and special prerogatives that Christians have been afforded in this Church age. Through the blood of Christ, Christians in this dispensation of Grace, have been given access into the throne-room of God, and as His children, we have been given the right to draw near to Him with boldness, so that we may receive mercy and find grace for help in times of need.

The only way for a man to approach God before the Cross was through the Levitical priesthood, which would act as mediator between God and man as required by the Law. But this restrictive way to approach the Lord was replaced by a new and better way - a heavenly Mediator - the Man Christ Jesus.

Today we can pray directly to our Father, THROUGH the Son, Who died to pay the price for our sin. He is our heavenly High Priest Whose shed blood demolished the barrier between a holy God and sinful man... for although Jesus is fully God, He is also the sinless Man Who became our Kinsman-Redeemer.

My Prayer

Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift and privilege of prayer. Thank You that I have access to Your throne of grace, for help in time of need. You alone are worthy of my grateful thanks and praise for this unparalleled birth-right. Renew in me an increasing desire to know You more, and to love You better with each passing day. Purge from me any petty attitudes that may hinder my fellowship with You. Instil in me a deepening desire to linger in Your presence and to praise You unceasingly, in spirit and truth. And develop in my heart an attitude of worshipful prayer, so that my communion with You becomes the essential essence of my very life on earth. This I ask in Jesus' name, AMEN.
