Philippians 4:6-7<\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a09<\/sup><\/i>After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.\u00a010<\/sup>Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.\u00a011<\/sup>Give us this day our daily bread. \u00a012<\/sup>And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.\u00a013<\/sup>And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.<\/i><\/p>\n

Matthew 6:9-13<\/b><\/p>\n

We can all draw close to him with the veil removed from our faces. And with no veil we all become like mirrors who brightly reflect the glory of the Lord\u00a0Jesus. We are being transfigured into his very image as we move from one brighter level of glory to another. And this glorious transfiguration comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.<\/em><\/p>\n

2 Corinthians 3:18 TPT<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jesus is our example of how to live a victorious Christian life. He made a point to spend time in prayer and in the presence of His Father. It was in these times He was directed, comforted and strengthened to walk out the will of God. We cannot afford to live any differently. We must have God’s wisdom for these times and seasons we live in. There is no substitute for this time of communication with God.<\/p>\n

“True prayer is a way of life, not just for use in cases of emergency. Make it a habit, and when the need arises you will be in practice.” – Billy Graham<\/h6>\n
