So many people complain that after series of prayer everyday and night, they still don’t feel like they are close to God. Yes, prayer is not enough for you to get close to God. There are more things which should be done. Even in the Bible which is the holy book, we are made to know that prayer isn’t sufficient to be close to God so there is more to it.
As Christians, after praying, we should learn to do the work of the Lord. Praying is just like having a good start. Anyone who prays to God most likely believes in God so after praying, you have to begin to do the necessary things.
What are the necessary things which we should do? We should help others. It doesn’t have to be the financial way but making sure that it puts a smile on people’s face. We also have to preach the Lord more to other people. Let’s tell people about God. We know they know God but there are so manh unbelievers out there so we should try to preach gospel to them all yhe time.
I think so many people get Matthew 7:7 wrong. It says, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.
So when people pray, we all pray for money but most people won’t even leave their house to work. Most of these people who pray for money are lazy but they want God to give them money. How will that work?
God will not jump from heaven to give you money so you have to work. After you have prayed, you have to take the steps of what you want seriously. That way, God will support and help you.
God loves those who are trying and making effort and he wants you to make an effort today.
Prayer is good but not enough, if you want something from God, pray and put effort in getting what you prayed for so you can be rewarded...
Exactly
Prayer without effort is zero
