Developing a prayer life as Jesus

The prayers of Jesus was some time by himself and others with his disciples. He mostly isolate himself and pray alone during in the morning. Through out the seminary i start to think about why Jesus has to separate himself from the disciples and pray all alone. This thought went for a while in my mind, on how to pray alone not in my room but somewhere else, it could be on near by place like a park, playing ground or any place which is convenience for me to pray.
Therefore, i started to plan towards that, style of Jesus praying. It took me a while to get place to pray because there no free place to isolate myself for praying. This made me to try it in my room, having a place in my room to serve as my praying room. Within a moment of time and days, i was able to start praying from the morning and this was good for me to have time with God. But as time goes on, it began to change, since i was always busy to have such time to pray. This made me to try to get a place in my working area at work, just to get closer to God.
Sometimes, it could be that, i will be working whiles i am praying and giving thanks to God. And I also discover that, i could even pray whiles going to work. Along the road side, i will have a time with God, because that's the time which i always remember to communicate with God. Since then, i have been developing some ways to pray like Jesus.
It has help me to get closer to Jesus and knowing that, he is always around everywhere to listen to my prayers.

Grace of God Almighty

“All of us have become like one who is unclean and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags; we all shrive up like a leaf, and like the wind our sins sweep us away.” Isaiah 64:6. The “us” here indicate that, everyone in this world, whether you’re a Christian or not. To God, we all mean one to Him, he cares for everyone and he forgives everyone who sin against Him. Because I’m a sinner and I constantly need God’s forgiveness. Without asking forgiveness, it makes me thing I’m proud of myself. But as human we are, we cannot think for ourselves, we need the guidance of a Supreme being, which is God in our lives. For we cannot do anything on our own, we totally need God’s dependence. In my spiritual formation, I totally need God in my daily life activities. For I know, I’m nobody when am on my own, but I become somebody when I’m with God Almighty. He takes control of everything within myself and he becomes the pilot, piloting my heart, mind and soul. All I want from God, is to l...

Allowing God be the Judge

In the book of Psalm 7:10, which says “My shield is God Most High, who saves the upright in heart.” (NIV). God knows our hearts, thought and our strength. The Most High God, allow everything in our life to happen, so that He will let good things come in our life. Judging one life is done by a special person who knows everything about you. The only person cannot be merely human being, it has to be a supernatural being, which is God Almighty. He knows our hearts more than anyone; therefore, it is better for him to be allow to judge our actions in life. Because He knows our strength and capacity to adjust things when He is judging us. In my whole life, I ask myself that if I can make all things work for me in a positive way. Which is not possible and everything cannot go through for me in a such a good way. I need someone to judge my actions, correct my mistake and lead me to the straight of goodness. I had one experience in my life, where I allow God to be the judge in that tight ...

How is perfection connected to our relationship with God the Father in the light of the Bible? How are childlike faith and perfection related in your own life?

God is love and His love reigns among us, in happy or sad moments. For His love endure forevermore. Perfection come to place, when we began to show the love God in our lives. God’s love become reality in our daily actions of life.  Therefore, it is said in 1 John 3:16 that “This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters. If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person? Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth. (NIV)  Perfection is putting our actions and truth of God’s love into practicality. Our daily actions are very important in our life, whom we deal with and what we negotiate among people must be in truth with love of God. The speech we make to our neighbors must be in true love. We don’t say to our brother or sister that God loves you and ev...
