Waiting does not equal inactivity

Prayer is more than waiting

*Action is necessary

     -obey what God tells you to do

     -work to forgive

     -it's never spiritual to say "I'm waiting on the Lord in prayer" when God has already shown you what to do.

     -of course, discernment is necessary

     -there are clear scriptures you should obey

 

Prayer is War

     -"Prayer is a war-time walkie-talkie" J. Piper

     -Good check point is to ask self how much of my prayers are focused on me?

     -its about deeper repentance
