"THE ART OF PRAYER" - DAY 7: (SEPTEMBER 2016 - A MONTH OF BOOK REVIEW)

DAY 7, CHAPTER 7 – LOVE: THE FOUNDATION FOR SUCCESSFUL PRAYER

We are progressing well, and I believe the time we’ve spent so far on reading and reviewing are worth spending. Today, we shall be considering the seventh chapters of this book today title “Love: the foundation for successful prayer”. Stay tune.


Roman 5:5: …… the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost.

When you were born again, God became your father. He is a love God. You are a love child of a love God. You are born of God, and God is love, so you are born of love. The nature of God is in you. And the nature of God is love.

Matt 5:44-45 – But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you….

The reason we can do this is because of the manner of love the father has bestowed upon us.

The major foundation for believers’ successful prayer is LOVE, Love is the basis for all Christian activity. Compassion is an ingredient of divine love.

How do we know this is so? – Because God so loved the world that he gave Jesus. And Jesus so loved us that He gave Himself for us.


So how does love form the foundation for our prayer? Let’s dig deep into the reading of this chapter…
