Prayer Focus-Earnest

JOHN SHIRK – In the Year of Focus, we take a look at earnest prayer that seeks God.

In Jeremiah 29:13, the LORD says, “You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.”

How do we seek God in this way? One insight can be seen in the preceding verse. “Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you.”

Our search for God leads to a relationship with Him when we pray. He invites us to His throne of grace to call on His name. He is faithful to hear the cries of our heart with His caring heart. He is moved by our prayers from a humble heart that truly seeks to know Him.

Earnest Prayer is worth examining for a faith-focused life.
