One of the first things we learn as a believer is to pray. In fact, our first step towards accepting Christ is to say the sinner’s prayer, by admitting that we are a sinner, asking Father God to forgive us of our sins and to repent from our sins and then accepting Jesus Christ as the Lord and Saviour of our lives, acknowledging that salvation is a gift from God, freely given by His grace and mercy but cost Him the life of His one and only beloved Son at Calvary. We pray all that in the most precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord.
Over the years we would have learnt about different types of prayers – from intercessory prayer to commanding healing to casting out demons but the simple prayer that we speak in our hearts, perhaps even before we said the sinner’s prayer, is probably still our favourite. Just a still small voice in our heart reaching out to God, to Jesus, to the Holy Spirit; knowing that He will hear us and help us through our difficulty, our struggle, our fears, our anxieties, even our tears and sadness as we lose things or people we hold dear in our hearts.
Say a little prayer, before God, before Jesus Christ, before the Holy Spirit. We may have messed up, made a mistake. Ask God to forgive us for the error of our ways, for the hurt and disappointment we caused. Ask God for comfort and strength to carry on our quest for Him, to continue to walk in the faith, always choosing the narrow path. Say a little prayer whenever we feel we are all alone, that no one understands us, that everything around us is too overwhelming, perhaps there is too much on our plate. Say a little prayer if we are anxious for the future, for the future of our children, for the future of our nation. Be like Nehemiah – what should I say? Say a little prayer before we say it. It will do a lot of good to have God on our side, to have God having our backs even if we have messed up. Say a little prayer…
