Desperate Prayer

And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart. (Jeremiah 29:13 KJV)

There should be some time when you truly get in the spirit of prayer. When do you get desperate in prayer. It’s good for your spiritual condition to know that you’ve poured out your heart to the Lord with all your heart.

The Lord wants us to be happy, and we usually are. But there should also be times when you’re not satisfied with just the usual run of things, when you really seek the Lord for a needed change and desperately pray, pouring out your heart to Him.

When do you get deeply concerned and truly pray? When do you get concerned about your children, about those you’re ministering to, about the needs of the world, about the unsaved, and pray in the Spirit with your whole heart? How long has it been since you prayed like that? Do you ever pray like that?—DBB [1]

“I live in the spirit of prayer. I pray as I walk about, when I lie down, and when I rise up. And the answers are always coming. Thousands and tens of thousands of times have my prayers been answered. When once I am persuaded that a thing is right and for the glory of God, I go on praying for it until the answer comes.”—George Muller
