 June 1 - Vignettes on Prayer

 

     Luke reveals in Acts 6:8, how some ordinary men can become extraordinary,  Now here is a truth.    Every once in a while a great man of God comes on the scene to do a great work for the Lord.  Today, there are such men as Billy Graham, Pat Roberson, David Mainse, John Hagee and Benny Hinn.  All these men have something in common with Stephen.  In fact any man of God to be successful for God has to have these qualities.

     These men have to full of wisdom and the Spirit.  They have to be full of grace and faith.  They have to have grace and power which all come from life in the Spirit.  A person has to be open to the Spirit and His direction.  With these a person will be successful.  Through prayer this is attained.  Check the life of any man touching his world for Christ they were people of prayer.  Martin Luther said, “I have too much to do so I have to spend several hours in prayer to get it done.  That speaks for itself about the importance of prayer.
