Questions, Answers & Prayer:
If prayer’s talking to God: How do I share my heart with Him?
I share my heart with the Spirit as I do with a trusted friend that I enjoy, being with &, talking to.
So, share sincerely & honestly so I can get to know the Spirit & so we can enjoy one another?
Yes! Draw close & bond with Him by sharing wholeheartedly.
Give helpful words to nudge my heart to be patient & receptive:
First, turn your attention to inner stillness & recognize the Spirit’s presence & give thanks for it:
“Thank You for living in my spirit & being my invisible counselor.”
“Help me be guided by You.”
“Thank You for loving me.”
“Thank You for believing in me.”
“Help me relax & talk to You.”
“Thank You for being with me.”
“Thank you for forgiving me.”
“I need your guidance in some things I need to confide about.”
“Teach me as I walk with You.”
“Enable me to do my best in my difficult assignment today.”
“Come alongside me. Remind me of Your soothing presence.”
“Remind me that I am Your servant & I’m following You.”
Let’s pray to grow closer to Him:
“Spirit, I love You. I enjoy Your presence. Prepare, condition & strengthen my heart to: Follow You. Come to learn from You. Abide in You. Spirit, lead me & teach me in every area of life. Give me a teachable heart & inspire me to hear & obey Your voice & to delight in it (Eph. 1:17-18; Ps. 25; 119:33-35).”
“Spirit, teach me Your ways, show me Your paths, & lead me in Your truth. You’re the God of my salvation (Ps.25:4-5) Amen”
