Ask of Me, Part 5 (The Prayer Motivator Devotional Bus 2 - #547)

TODAY’S POEM: “I Prayed For” by Steve Gracie

VERSE: Numbers 21:7: “Therefore the people came to Moses, and said, We have sinned, for we have spoken against the Lord, and against thee; pray unto the Lord, that he take away the serpents from us. And Moses prayed for the people.”

QUOTE: “It is hypocritical to pray for victory over our sins yet be careless in our intake of the Word of God.” –Jerry Bridges

DEVOTIONAL: Ask of Me, Part 5 by E.M. Bounds

The statement by the Baptist philospher, John Foster, contains the purest philosophy and the simple truth of God, for God has no force and demands no conditions but prayer. “More and better praying will bring the surest and readiest triumph to God’s cause; feeble, formal, listless praying brings decay and death. The Church has its sheet-anchor in the closet; its magazine stores are there.”
