FIRE ON THE ALTAR: A LIFE OF CONSISTENT PRAYER (2)

Times Of Refreshing Daily Devotional

Date: Thursday, 13 February 2025

Topic: Fire on the Altar: A Life of Consistent Prayer (2)

Focus: Seeking God’s Presence Daily


Message:

Your calling must be fueled by prayer. A life without prayer is a life without power. Prayer is the fire that keeps our spirit alive, our faith strong, and our connection with God unbroken. This devotional series will guide you into a lifestyle of unceasing prayer and deep communion with God.


Key Verse:

📖 1 Thessalonians 5:17 – “Pray without ceasing.”


Prayer is more than just requests—it is about dwelling in God’s presence. David, a man after God’s heart, longed to be in God’s presence continually (Psalm 27:4). Many believers pray only when they need something, but God desires relationship, not rituals. He calls us to seek Him daily—not just in emergencies. When we prioritize God’s presence, we experience His peace, guidance, and power. Our lives become saturated with His glory.


Scripture Reading:

📖 Psalm 27:4 – “One thing I ask from the Lord… that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life.”


Refreshing for the Day:

So, beloved, shift your mindset—prayer is not just a duty, but a delight. Stay Refreshed!


Note This:

The more time you spend with God, the more you become like Him.


Responsibility:

Spend extra time in God’s presence today—just to worship and enjoy Him.


Prayer:

O Lord, I want more of You. Teach me to seek Your face, not just Your hands. In Jesus’ name, Amen!


Prophetic Declaration:

I declare that I am a dweller in God’s presence! My hunger for Him will never run dry! In Jesus’ name, Amen!


Bible Texts:

1 Thess. 5:17, Psalm 27:4
