“Devote yourselves to prayer”

September 1, 2020 By Pastor Leave a Comment

“Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful.” Colossians 4v2

Whatever things Covid-19 has prevented us from doing, it has not stopped us from praying. God is not “socially distanced” from us!

As Lloyd is on holiday for the next two weeks, it falls to me to give you a Spurgeon quote!

“All hell is vanquished when the believer bows his knee in importunate supplication. Beloved brethren, let us pray. We cannot all argue, but we can all pray; we cannot all be leaders, but we can all be pleaders; we cannot all be mighty in rhetoric, but we can all be prevalent in prayer. I would sooner see you eloquent with God than with men. Prayer links us with the Eternal, the Omnipotent, the Infinite, and hence it is our chief resort … Be sure that you are with God, and then you may be sure that God is with you.”

Tim

Remember, remember the 5th of November. Treason against the king- thankfully Guy Fawkes' plot was scuppered! 🔥🧨 The Bible says we're all guilty of treason against the King of kings!
