Never Put Common Sense On The Throne

We pray to God because we are made in His image. You need not be a believer to be made in God's image. To have your prayer answered, one must be a child of His. In our extraordinary lives and difficult circumstances one cannot look to the common sense of the world to be a measure of a very extraordinary God. With God, nothing is impossible. Yet, sometimes we feel like our prayers are not heard. If you a child of God your prayers are always heard. Sometimes, though, we try to reason the answer out and that's where common sense fails. Never put common sense on the throne because apart from God and His Son and the indwelling Spirt, we can do nothing.

Daily Prayer: Father, it is a matter of trust. Strengthen our faith so that we do not backslide into human reasoning to be a predictor of answered prayer. Instead, let is come to you in faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. In Him, You are satisfied and we belong to Him. In Jesus name I pray Amen.
