Encountering God through Prayer - First15 Devotional

What this episode covers

Prayer is so simple, but often times our minds convolute and complicate it. Today we’re exploring how to encounter God through prayer, and I pray you take away a simplified, childlike approach to spending time with your heavenly Father. May your heart and mind be at peace today as you encounter the living God. Our Scripture for today comes from Jeremiah 33:3, and today's worship is House of God Forever by John Foreman. -- Thanks for listening to today’s First15 Podcast.

Today’s episode contains a guided prayer that aims to help remind us to slow down with Jesus when our bodies and our minds are racing. When it feels like things are going so fast that you’re having a hard time keeping up, our prayer is that this Guided Prayer helps center your heart and mind on the one who holds it all together.

I read the Word and share my insights from the Word. You might ask why do I do this? In the wilderness, the Israelites had to depend on daily mana from heaven to live. They couldn't eat yesterday's nor keep them for the next day. They always lived on the fresh mana each day. We also need to live by the fresh word of God each day. However, often we skip a meal and live on the past encounters with God. Someone of us gets too busy to eat or someone us do not know how or where to start. We need fresh encounters each day with the Lord so that the love of Christ will overflow to others. That's what I am doing, doing my quiet time and feasting and sharing the food with people.
