Don't Give Up

I sense that the Spirit is encouraging me to make this declaration over our lives. This is not the time to give up on our dreams, desires, destinies, and future encounters with God. This is the day and time of divine revelation; we are being called to see and recognize God as the revelation of Truth, Grace, and Mercy. God desires to work in our lives if we will be willing to respond and commit to a life of seeking Him and following Him. I Thessalonians 5:17 deposits this challenge in our spirit; "Never stop praying" (NLT). We can not afford to stop listening to the Voice of God. Many of us are still praying for needs to be met in our lives as well as the lives of our friends and family. The enemy seeks to discourage us and he wants us to discontinue the offering of our sincere prayers to God. But before you quit praying let me remind you to take time to hear the Voice of God. God speaks to us through a variety of ways: through the Word of God, through the insight and wisdom of fellow believers, through the elements of nature that declare the glory and power of God, through our own conscience that speaks volumes of truth into our lives, and God also uses dreams, visions and other means of inspiration to alert us to His presence. God desires for you to hear Him this day; "Never stop praying." Let us fan the flame of intercession that is being awakened in our land today. We are in desperate times and we need Divine intervention. We should intensify our praying; we can not afford to become slack in this command of God. Do not lose heart; pray with passion, faith, and fervency. We must remember that God does hear the cry of our hearts and He responds to the brokenness of our spirit. KEEP PRAYING!
