God Thinking XIV - That Next Place 10

"Ephesians 6:10-17
V18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

My God, this is a call to you. 
This is a call for men and women of faith. 
This is for those who want more of God and less of everything else, more than blessings, more than prosperity, more than deliverance, more than healing, more than anything.

This is for those who want to be locked in a prayer closet with God. 
God has the key, but you can get out any time you want to, but you don’t want to. 
God hears your every word and God speaks a Word to you.  You go in with questions and complaints and you come out with answers and a gift.
No one leaves the presence of God without a word and a gift.

After you have been in this place.
You always want to go back again. 
God purifies your everyday experience. 
You think about the holiness of God.
You ponder high and lofty thoughts and contemplate your next encounter with the Almighty? 
You lose your desire for the empty promises of this world? 

God’s grace becomes sufficient for you. 
You come away with something you didn’t go there with?
You get the answers we are looking for.

1 Timothy 2:1
“I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men:”
