Have you ever thought about what it means to unleash the power of God in your life? When you start grasping the awesomeness of God’s power when you pray, it can be both scary and exciting. Maybe you feel more secure sending up memorized, “safe” prayers so you can steer clear of the life-changing power of God. However, praying it safe is not always better. In today’s message, learn why Shana Schutte teeters on the edge of safe and daring as she contemplates the power of prayer.
RE 2 - Cotton Candy Prayers Beyond Imagination Edit
Father, You have amazing power, and sometimes that scares me. I sometimes like to pray “safe” prayers because I’m afraid. Help me to be more daring with my prayers.
What is my apple cart? How am I praying it safe?
Trade the mundane for the exciting. Pray for something you know only God can do, and then watch Him show up!
Yes, it is a little scary to develop a daring prayer relationship with God, but He is inviting you to an exciting life with Him. So, how do you get to the place where you are having intimate, relevant, and exciting conversations rather than praying empty prayers? One way is to adjust your focus and your priorities. You’ll see in the next post why studying Jesus’ example can lead to a more intimate relationship that is not scary, but instead holy and special.
