Continue earnestly in prayer, being vigilant in it with thanksgiving. Colossians 4:2
Two essential things
make for a successful leader: communication and praise. Without communication,
there is a road block between the leader and his followers, neither knows what
the other is doing and expectations are not clear. Praise lets them know how
much they are appreciated and that’s the motivation to continue to do well.
You could say the
same is true for Christians. Communication through prayer is a privilege, and
God desires we commune with Him on a continual basis. As we do, He directs our
hearts toward His will and purpose and provides sound wisdom to navigate the
challenges of life. Praising God for His goodness (and He is good in all
things), shows your appreciation for Him and your relationship grows stronger
through faith and trust in Him. Together these two essential factors make an
unbreakable bond between God and His children.
How is your
relationship with God? Maybe a little stagnant? Instead of giving God a wish
list of things you desire, why not spend some time thanking Him for all He is
doing in your life and be thankful for what you have. God longs to commune with
you, give Him reason to hear your prayers through praise and acknowledgement of
His goodness in your life! God bless!
