Your time on your knees displays the urgency of your need.

Your time on your knees displays the urgency of your need....

This morning as I am in worship at church, I felt the Holy Spirit so sweetly remind me I need to be on my knees more. Right now my family is going through a lot of changes, nothing completely major but we have had some financial speed bumps and we are believing for some new doors to open for my husband, career wise. We have struggled quite a bit financially for the past couple of months and we pray and we believe it will come to an end soon and we WILL have a breakthrough in our struggles. 

Now, as many of you know, a few years ago, our marriage was attacked and my health. Of course during that time, I was on my knees, day in and day out, praying for healing in all areas. No one had to tell me to do it, I did it. 

Today, I felt God say to me, if this was your marriage or your health, you would be on your knees until a breakthrough happened, so why aren't you doing the same for your husbands job, for your finances, for your ministry to unfold or for the changes coming to your family? When He spoke that to me, I immediately began crying and realizing, why am I not on my knees more? It's like all this time, I thought no, I can't cry out that much because He already got me through so much in the past that this is nothing, this isn't that high of a need so I just need to sit back and be patient. BUT today, God reminded me that every single one of our needs or issues or battles are important to Him and depending on how important we make them and bring them to Him, is how He will respond. If we feel it can go on the back burner and we just wait for it, then why would it be a big deal for Him, if that's where our faith is...but if we know and believe He will answer it, no matter the level of what WE think it is and we get on our knees and pray for it and call His name in it, daily, then He will answer it and allow miracles to happen. 

So, today, if you're anything like me and just feel, no I don't want to be stingy God, I'll just wait, it could be worse....STOP! Because, yes, it could be worse but that's why we thank Him for what we have and also bring whatever needs we have to Him, so that He can answer them and allow miracles to happen in our lives. 

Get on your knees and pray, lay your burdens at His feet, allow Him to sweep it away and answer your prayers. Believe for a miracle today, no matter how little or big you think your need is, IT MATTERS to Jesus!
