Scripture: Daniel 10:2-6, 12
“Let your eyes look straight ahead; fix your gaze directly before you” Proverbs 4:25 (NIV)
Feedback: Consider the length of time it took you praying this week.
God answers prayers. This means that your need for deliverance, salvation and healing is not an issue where God is concerned (Jeremiah 32:27). The challenge lies in how a believer acts to access these benefits. The answer is to connect or plug in to God’s omnipotent power. Just like the electrical appliances in your home need a power source to function,
you also need to stay plugged into God’s power to enjoy the reality of His promises in your life.
The key scripture today recounts how Daniel consistently prayed for three and received his answer. Daniel could have been discouraged by delay and given up but he did not. Despite the delay, he stayed plugged in and it paid off. Do not run around or away from God when trouble comes; remain with him like Daniel no matter the storm.
The key to getting and staying plugged into the power of God is to remain focused on him and his word. Do not waver (Proverbs 4:25). Do not entertain fear. Fear quenches your fire and drowns your faith and commitment. In the darkness of discouragement, the devil attacks. Resist and refuse to fall into this trap. Whenever a man is steady and stable, God is ready to work with him to victory. Remain plugged in.
Reflection: What am I doing to remain plugged into the power of God?
PRAYER: Lord, give me the grace to remain focused and connected to you. Strengthen and direct me in Jesus name.
FAITH BYTE: I am connected to God, my faith is continually renewed and all my prayers are answered.
This Week Walk of Faith: Create time for personal devotion with God; at least 2hours daily, this week.
