One of the most difficult disciplines to master is

to become persistent in prayers. I cannot

possibly count the number of times I have renewed

my vow to God, which includes making a fresh

commitment to pray regularly. However, it seemed

to me that no matter how hard I tried to seek the

Lord in prayer, the more I gave up after a short

while.

I know that I am not alone by far. I read some

research recently from a popular faith based

magazine that only 1-in-5 Christians have a regular,

scheduled daily prayer time.

After a careful self-evaluation, including a

detailed research as to why I followed this particular

pattern, I came to the conclusion that the main

reason I kept on giving up was, my prayer life had no

structure at all.

The bible says that where there is no vision the

people may perish. My daily prayer schedule needed

vision and structure. So I decided to ensure that my

supplications were more thematic and directed to

deal with specific subjects on a daily basis.

After organising my prayers I saw tremendous

breakthroughs in many areas of my life including my

finances, my church, my emotions, behavioural and

of course my attitude towards my enemies.

I have outlined a few of my daily devotional

readings for you to muse over and pick you up a

little bit. I sincerely hope and trust that they will be

helpful and as you endeavour to 'jump start' your

prayer life!

Before you start reading this material, please

begin your 40 days of seeking God by asking the

merciful Father to forgive your all those sins that

hinder your experience with Him and cause you to

have inner feelings of guilt and condemnation.

When we ask for forgiveness, we are reassured in

the scriptures that no matter how terrible we

regard our actions to be, the blood of Christ has the

efficacy to continually cleanse us daily from all

unrighteousness! (1 John 1:9)

'Return unto me, and I will return unto you, saith

the Lord of hosts.' (Mal. 3:7)
