Sowing Series: Prayer

Galatians 6:7,8: Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever  a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For he that soweth to his flesh  reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit reap life (zoe) everlasting.

Beloved sons remember we desire to sow to the Spirit and reap everlasting life.  When we reap everlasting life we are able to put the Father on display in the earth.  The first seed you can sow is prayer.  

When you sow prayer you reap intimacy with God.  God tells us to pray without ceasing.  Prayer is communication with God.  When we can mature in our prayer life our prayers shift from being focused on us to being focused on advancing the Kingdom and the will of the Father.  In the Letter of James it tells us that the prayers of a righteous man availeth much.  Why?  Because the righteous, the mature son, desires to pray the Father's will to be done and His prayer is not selfish but for the benefit of others.  Do not get me wrong in our spiritual infancy and youth, God will grant those request so that we can see that He does answer them but like a child, we must grow up and as we grow we change and so should our prayers.  As we mature our prayers and communication with God should become more intimate and personal.  

Over the next week focus on your prayer life and really ask yourself what am I praying for?  Jesus said our Heavenly Father knows that we have need for all these things BUT seek FIRST the Kingdom of God and His righteousness.  When we so prayer we will reap intimacy with God.
