Summary

Mark 1:35 And rising very early in the morning, while it was still dark, he departed and went out to a desolate place, and there he prayed. The number one thing you can do for your family, friends, church, neighbors, coworkers is go in a room alone and shut the door and pray and worship God. Go to your desolate place alone. Every day Leave everyone to love everyone. Not just because you pray for them, but also because prayer will change you. And that will be a blessing to them. Learn how to pray. Make prayer a daily habit. Draw close to God in love. The more you love God the more good it will be for everyone in your life. Try scripture prayers. Speak with your voice, stand with hands raised, kneel down, or even lie face down. And pray the word of God. The Lord’s Prayer, Paul’s prayers, Psalms, doxologies from the Epistles, songs from Revelation, the Prophets, Mary’s prayer, etc. You can add your own words when you feel the need. But pray God’s word, join with the whole church praying these Holy Spirit inspired words. Make this your daily habit. Choose you prayers and stick to them. After that read the word of God and ask God to speak to you. Think about it. Read it again. Ask God to speak again. Think again. Repeat. Soak in a brief passage of scripture. Until you HEAR. Until he opens your ears and heart to hear. And gives you FAITH. Talk to God about it. Repent of sin. Ask for grace to obey commands, believe doctrines, ask for faith and love and hope and joy and gentleness, etc. Place your attention on God. Love Him. Worship Him. Adore Him. The filling of the Spirit is an unmerited gift. Given by God. You can’t force the filling anymore than you can make it rain or make the wind blow. But you can stand where the Spirit is pouring down. You can go out and stand in the strong weather of the Spirit. Where is that place? Prayer, meditation on God’s word, fasting. public worship, the preaching of ministers, the sacraments. Make these things your daily habit.
