1 Kings 8- 9
Solomons prayer is a format we should all follow I reckon. His prayer is consisted of
- pleading for God's presence (8:57)
- for the desire to do God's will in everything (8:58)
- for help in everyday's need (8:59)
- for the desire and ability to obey God's decrees and commands (8:58)
- for the spread of God's kingdom to the entire world (8:60)
[Life application study notes ]
One thing that has definitely changed since moving to Cheil is that my insight on prayer has changed. My church life went from self interest to Jesus. I know longer have an expectation that things will go easy in life since I'm consistently reminded of what carrying my cross will do to me. Solomons prayer is perfect because it goes agaisnt the self centred nature of our self glorifying ego. It aligns our interest with God and therefore will put our beliefs into action.
