God bless you for taking your time to study
YOUR NEEDS ARE IN THE HOUSE (OR PLACE) OF PRAYER
TEXT: Luke 11: 1-4
WEDNESDAY JULY 20
Key verse: Isaiah 56: 7, “Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine, the house shall be called a house of prayer for all people.”
God is asking every believer to meet Him in the house: the house of prayer, because everything a believer need is in the house. Our physical houses are a place of comfort and convenience for us. When we are tired and worn out from daily mundane activities of life, we normally look forward to going to our homes, our houses where we find rest, peace, and comfort. In our houses, we eat satisfying food from our tables and take baths that refresh our bodies among many other things. So also is the spiritual house of prayer, where God invites us to meet Him, and in this place, we can find peace, joy, comfort, and great blessing. If we are hungry, He feeds us in His house, where He sets a table before us in the presence of our enemies. When we need cleansing, He rinses us in the water of sanctification.
Everyone is invited to meet Him in the house “… for mine house shall be called a house of prayer for all people.” All flesh is invited to come to Him there and receive the blessings of salvation, hope, faith, miracle, and healing. Psalms 65: 2, “O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come.”
Believers need not carry the burdens of distress and problems upon themselves. Just bring it to the holy mountain of the Lord’s house and leave it there. God promises to make us joyful in His house. In His house, everyone leaves with happiness. What is the problem tormenting your life? What is causing you misery or shame? Bring it to the house and change shall come to your life; answers shall come, blessings and peace shall come; wisdom and counseling shall come, and you shall be joyful.
Thought for the day: In His presence, there is fullness of Joy.
