Why I am not able to pray

வழங்கியவர்

Jose opened his google chrome and searched for ” Why I am not able to pray” ? One of the common questions that every Jose out there is wanting to have an answer. Every Christian know what prayer is?

It is a communication with GOD,It is the only answer for all our problems,It is the foundation for our spiritual growth.It is a means to express our gratitude and present our supplications before him.It is a privilege given to us by GOD.

Knowing all this, then why people can’t pray? Because there are few problems that appear during our prayer time.

Common problems during our prayer time

Distraction: These are some of the thoughts that come, when we close our eyes to pray: a) plans for the weekend, b) the girl you saw on the road, c) your debts and liabilities, e) deadline of your assignments, f) your dream bike and car, g) parents’ health, h) your grudge against neighbor and the list goes on…! One of the strongest weapon devil handles to cripple our mind is distraction. He doesn’t want your mind to be connected with GOD.Guilt and shame: a) I shouldn’t have done that, b) why did I say that? c) Let him ask for an apology, d) what will they think of m e? e) how will I face them? Guilt and shame lingers when you begin to pray, twill drown you in the sea of depression. Sometimes twill make you think that you are not worthy to go before the presence of GOD. The devil is a trickster, he will make you as a porter to carry your own guilt and shame throughout your prayer time.Sleep: You will be very active throughout the day but when you sit for prayer, you will yawn and feel to take a power nap.Bait: When you sit before His presence and wanting to pray, you get an SMS or call from your friend about a party, meeting a friend, hangout or you will remember the work that you have not completed earlier etc.

So definitely it is not easy to pray! Devil keeps spinning our mind with all these things. We get lost in our thoughts and wander in our guilt like a wild donkey trying to find its way back. In this situation, on a daily basis, how can I pray?

Few things you need to remember before starting to pray.

Prayer time is your private talk with GOD so do not give priority to anyone or anything at any cost.Never stop praying no matter how much hindrances come your way. Do not forget to talk to GOD because God reminded us in 1st Thessalonians 5:17 to “pray without ceasing.”Never forget that our God is more powerful than the devil, so submit and surrender yourself completely before GOD.Humans are weak and vulnerable but still, GOD listens and answers because we are his children.Prayer is a not responsibility but a relationship. Ephesians 3:12 says” in whom we have boldness and confident access through faith in Him.”

Never forget to do these things when you pray

Give your praises to GODPlace your sins/shame before GODSubmit your supplication before GOD

Gadgets and the Church

Technology has radically changed the way we experience our church services today. The means of communication, listening to the scripture, praising God, method of offering has changed greatly! Comparing with the last ten or twenty years, the use of gadgets in the churches today has grown tremendously. The accessibility of gadgets is improved, cost has come down, agility of it is increased, durability is prolonged. However, it has brought a big vacuum in the church as well. I am not going to discuss what good we have received from Technology but what we lost! REMEMBER 1. Bible apps will never replace Bible Believers and Pastors consider carrying Bible as a burden, so they bring their tablets and Phones as a replacement, thinking it as fashion. My Dad often reminded me and my brother saying  “If you both carry your Bible today, Bible will carry you tomorrow.” Once upon a time, children, adults and elders use to learn, read, recite and remember scriptures by heart. ...

Hypocrisy in theIndian Churches

Looking at the topic, you might have come to three conclusions! Either, I am judging Christians, angry about pastors or an useless blog Yes, you are right, I am angry at the Church, angry at pastors, angry at churches that have forgotten their calling, forgotten their commitment to stand in the word of GOD. Church is the bride of Christ but her affair and love for the world has broken the covenant with Christ. She longs to call herself  as the bride of Christ yet her actions portray she is bride of the world. This is what I call Hypocrisy! 😦 I come from a country where where pastors, ministers of God stood firm, walked bold, spoke fervently, faced opposition with courage, never compromised and died as martyrs for Christ. Now in 2017, when I look at the churches, it is in sad state! Leaders long for power, pay for position, manipulate words, commit subtle corruption, fallen for pornography, doing gimmicks to attract crowd, making believers comfortable, admonishing church...
