TheLionWithin.Us: How to Embrace Spiritual Leadership

DAY 2 OF 6

Prayer

Prayer is our direct line to God.

Matthew 6 lays out the Lord’s Prayer and Jesus taught that as a model of how to commune with our Father. Store it in your heart. Repeat it daily. Say it out loud.

As you think about your prayer life, start examining when you are most likely to pray. For many men, it is when they have done all they can do, and they find themselves against the wall or unable to figure something out. Prayer often feels like a last resort from a sort of, “Well, there is nothing left to do but pray,” attitude. This is not how you should view prayer. Talking with God daily is how we grow in our faith.

God wants to be involved in every part of your life and you should take the time to let Him in. He is not a 9-1-1 dispatcher or phone-a-friend option on a game show. He is your Father, and He wants to talk to His child regularly. Open the door for God each day and you will begin to see your life change for the better.

Question to Consider

  1. How do you make time to pray every day?
  2. How could utilizing the Lord’s Prayer improve your prayer life?
  3. What actions will you commit to today to be the leader God intends you to be?
