(Daily prayer follows after this short introduction)

What kind of prayers does God listen to?

Prayers for strength...requests for good health... for healing... for a happy marriage... help for a loved one... help for your finances... for a better life...a stable life...a peaceful life... to save your relationship...find someone special for you...to deal with any personal problem... help you with your fears... your anxieties...your loneliness...help you control your emotions (such as anger, hate, jealousy, envy, apathy, depression...etc.)...your disappointments...addictions (whether it's drugs, alcoholism, obsessive spending...etc.)...??

What if I were to tell you that He listens to none of that, would it shock you or even surprise you?

I hope not.

First, God listens to your heartfelt desire to communicate with Him because you love Him as your Father; words without faithful love for Him mean nothing...so speaking to God because you want something for yourself means nothing...

Secondly, when you love God, you don't "pray" to Him, like some kind of formality...communicate with Him as someone you genuinely love...

This is what Daily Communication Prayer to God is all about; to teach you how to communicate with the Lord the way he wants to hear from you...

Father,

This morning I wish to declare that a super day is on its way...

It's already here!

Sure, challenges may come my way, and they will tempt me to stray away from you Lord...as they always seem to do.

Yet my daily prayer communication to you today Lord is not to express my uncertainties and worries to you...not any frustration that attempts to sabotage my contact with you Father...

This morning, my communication with you is to declare that I will stay within your house Lord...

I will sit at your porch gazing at the world with peace of mind as I sit down in your domain...

The Evil One is certainly going to set his traps...

...through circumstances and ignorant people who don't realize they are used by him to disrupt those who are running the good race of faith...

(See Satan's secret weapons hidden from sight, but now revealed...free for you to discover...)

Yet this is what I declare Father:

I shall remain blameless;
Do what is right;
Speak out with truth;
No slander;
Will not do any wrong to anyone;
Shall not talk evil about another...

It's not impossible to do, even if I am exposed to the ignorance and stupidity of others around me...

I shall be steadfast and a pillar to all who seek someone to lean on...

As long as I am tuned-in to you Lord, I shall remain unshakeable...

For I know that you protect those who honor you...

Thanks Lord....
