An excerpt from "the Battle Plan for Prayer by Stephen and Alex Kendrick
Page 57:
Anything important enough to us will be somethng we make time for. Even when we're extremely busy. But remember, Jesus was busier than all of us, and He prioritized daily prayer.
What if the richest man in your city called you today and said he would give you ten thousand dollars in cash every morning if you showed up and rang his doorbell at 6:00 a.m. Would you be there: Absolutely. No question. Why? Because if we really want something bad enough and value it enough, we make it happen. We figure out a way to fit it into our schedules. At the same time, our Savior, Jesus Christ, is daily offering us eternal treasures from His Word and the opportunity to talk with His Father, the God of the Universe, to share our hearts and needs. And yet we still come up with excuses as to why we don't have time to make it work.
So determine today that prayer will be the priority God wants it to be in your life. Choose to start each day in prayer. To end each day with prayer. Even better, couple it with time in God's Word. Whether it's an hour or just fifteen minutes, schedule time to be with the Lord, and watch what He does with it in your life.
(Commit to prayer today.)
