The 40 Day Jump Start

One of the most difficult disciplines to master is to become persistent in prayers. I cannot possibly count the number of times I have renewed my vow to God, which includes making a fresh commitment to pray regularly. However, it seemed to me that no matter how hard I tried to seek the Lord in prayer, the more I gave up after a short while. I know that I am not alone by far. I read some research recently from a popular faith based magazine that only 1-in-5 Christians have a regular, scheduled daily prayer time. After a careful self-evaluation, including a detailed research as to why I followed this particular pattern, I came to the conclusion that the main reason I kept on giving up was, my prayer life had no structure at all. The bible says that where there is no vision the people may perish. My daily prayer schedule needed vision and structure. So I decided to ensure that my supplications were more thematic and directed to deal with specific subjects on a daily basis. After organising my prayers I saw tremendous breakthroughs in many areas of my life including my finances, my church, my emotions, behavioural and of course my attitude towards my enemies. I have outlined a few of my daily devotional readings for you to muse over and pick you up a little bit. I sincerely hope and trust that they will be helpful and as you endeavour to 'jump start' your prayer life! Before you start reading this material, please begin your 40 days of seeking God by asking the merciful Father to forgive your all those sins that hinder your experience with Him and cause you to have inner feelings of guilt and condemnation. When we ask for forgiveness, we are reassured in the scriptures that no matter how terrible we regard our actions to be, the blood of Christ has the efficacy to continually cleanse us daily from all unrighteousness!
