Wrestling in God's Presence

When Jacob wanted God's blessing, he wrestled with God, but God made Jacob's leg go out of joint permanently. We are to be wrestlers for sure. We are to wrestle against the forces of darkness when they hinder our access to God. When we seek God's approval for things that fall into His permissive will (as opposed to His perfect will which cannot change) we are to wrestle before God seeking his approval. If a brother or sister in Christ wants you to pray for them wrestle with them in prayer. But be wary of those who wrestle against God as did Jacob, because God will put you out of joint permanently as He did with Jacob. We are at our best when we wrestle before God.

Daily Prayer: Father, let us not take anything lightly as though you do not concern Yourself with our desires. Let us come before Your throne so that we may show you the desires of our hearts. Make us complete in Christ so that our prayers may receive Your approval. In Jesus name I pray Amen.
