I can only speak for myself here brothers and sisters,some will confirm many things I talk about,while some will not like what I say about Prayer. As a baby bird in prayer,it is all about what I want,and need,even as a baby bird has its mouth open to always receive. The reason the baby does this,is that at the moment it has nothing it can offer others,for it is to small and weak. Along and about the third year though,the mindset, if one does stay in the Word matures,and now the prayer's are about SOME purpose,what is my purpose now oh Lord?

Why am i here? And why oh Lord since you love me so much am i having to go through so very much? The season of grumbling and complaining. hehe Victory's are had,however it is not the victory's many look at but rather the next mountain they find they have to climb,and the dread of yet another day,they really do not wish to have to endure again! It is upon such days I myself have gone through,to which I sure can identify with so many!

Always looking to do everything I can in myself, to fix my life,or another with my own words.Inside ones self during this battle of both mind and spirit,lies a secret,but for one to find the secret one must rest.( Heb 4:11!!) for if one does not take the rest,one's mind will grow weary,and make many more mistakes.The flesh never desires to rest,for the flesh is always most hungry, all the time, to consume you in itself! Its purpose!

In our rest we preform something we had not done since salvation,2 Cor 13:3-10!!! REAL Prayer! The first light seen in a dark room. Prayer is a calling out to you personal! A time of reasoning( Isaiah 1:18) A time of understanding how complete Jesus has made you,a time for you to truly understand what believing DOES!! No IF"S, NO TRY"S!!!, No MAYBE"S!! For the leading of Holy Spirit in us to pray, leads us to SUPPLY!!!( Phil 4:19)But how to ask? And if i do ask,how do I know i am asking the correct question for myself or even for others?Asking is filled with questions,questions our flesh does not wish to take the time,to ever become answered,because flesh desires its way,for it is reminding you, while asking how hungry it is for something else!

And now the mind which hears the flesh speak to it,looks to reason to you,that it is time to depart the prayer room!! LOL And now you find out where you truly are in you maturity!! Prayer is a fast of the flesh! ( Isaiah 58:6-12) Holy Spirit moves inside you,you can even feel him moving upon his words he uses this scripture.(Isaiah 55:6-13!!!!!) NOW!! Do you yield to flesh? OR!! begin the second stage of prayer?? SEEKING!! You have found the secret!! A great JOY enters both your mind, and body!! But is is short lived,for the flesh then says,I am glad you have found something, but you really do not have time to seek,because there are more important things for us to do!!

My head started to hurt at this point. LOL Saying maybe this is just to much for you right now,come back another time. lol the closer you come out of the darkness the louder darkness yells to get back to where you have been not comfortable,but you understand it better then you do following this light!! LOL SEEKING means praise!( Psalm 100:1-5)SEEKING speaks only scripture!! for the powers of darkness are also with you,not in you of course,but you sure begin to have an uneasy feeling.LOL Even as Jesus was in Matt 4:1-11)

Jesus only spoke his own Word! for in temptation,one either yields to it,or speaks the Word against it! Temptation is great in seeking,for temptation is taught by the very flesh!( Gal 5:16-26) Now an answer comes!! Who is leading you?? A question which becomes an answer! Your action says who you believe in! I sure did fail a few times brothers and sisters myself!! I brought great condemnation upon myself by myself,and as i heard a little giggle from behind me,I knew! I SEE!!

After beating myself almost black and blue,I got back in the prayer closet!! LOL( 1 Cor 9:23-27) verse 27!! I of course had to start all over again!! But i learned!! I do not wish to make this to long, for there is so very much I could touch on about prayer!! You come out of the prayer closet,WHEN!!!!! Holy Spirit LEADS YOU OUT!! ( opening the secret!) And my brothers, and my sisters, you both grow in grace for yourself,so that you can always have grace for others!!( 2 Peter 3:18) Your words now change.( Col 4:6)

And even more important!!! So do your very actions towards others, as well as yourself!!From seeking, Holy Spirit in big bold print presents you with his reward!!( John 13:34-35!!!) Because brothers and sisters you will always find!!! And as you grow, you understand what you wish to receive from Jesus when getting home!!Only one thing!!( James 1:12!!!) Few will ever receive this crown! Because few ever take the time to seek! I pray that you all become seekers!! ( 2 Tim 4:6-8!!) i we will enjoy his appearing brothers and sisters!! And what better way to enjoy our Lord Jesus then with a crown given to us by him personal!! Blessing all!!
