Some Insights on Prayer

As I set my heart towards prayer this morning, this is what the Lord showed me. No wonder there is so much to hinder us from prayer. If we really understood…


Prayer takes courage. He who prays engages a world unseen. For angels and demons alike come, listening to the praying saint. God encounters this one who prays. They engage in battles and wars; they experience victory, they experience some defeat—though never defeated. If one could hear this world there would be the sounding of clashing swords, breaking chains, fearful demons, opening of prison doors. There would be cheers and encouragement from those who have gone before. These saints on their knees—these champions of God—most likely will never be seen as heroes this side of eternity, but they are God’s champions nonetheless.
