A Simple Privilege by Joyce Meyer - posted January 16, 2014 The law of the Lord is perfect, restoring the [whole] person; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple. —Psalm 19:7 I cannot imagine a higher honor than being able to talk to and hear from God, and I believe prayer is the greatest privilege of our lives. It’s not something we have to do; it’s something we get to do. Prayer is the way we partner with God to see His plans and purposes come to pass in our lives and in the lives of those we love. It is the means by which we human beings on Earth can actually enter into the awesome presence of God. It allows us to share our hearts with Him, to listen for His voice, and to know how to discover and enjoy all the great things He has for us. Communicating with God is indeed the greatest privilege I can think of, but this high and holy work is also the simplest privilege I know. I do not believe talking to God or hearing His voice was ever meant to be complicated and that, from the very beginning, He intended it to be an easy, natural way of life by which we are connected with Him all day, every day. God’s word for you today: Let prayer become like breathing; do it naturally and simply all throughout the day.
