Strength: The Closet Book, My Record Book of Prayers

Strength! There aren’t enough muscle-building hours in the gym to lift a downcast spirit, a bruised heart, a weak will. Pep talks can pump us up, but they are like hot air in a balloon. Strength isn’t an add-on. It is the sinew of our existence. Untiring strength only comes from One who is never weak. Words alone cannot impute strength. Only Living Words backed by solid promises spoken by One who has the authority and ability to do what He has said. That is why STRENGTH is part of the series, THE CLOSET BOOK: My Record Book of Prayers. Prayer is the filament that firmly connects the strength of the Lord to a weary soul. When I pray, I know I am speaking to One who holds the universe in His hands. If all else fails, He will not. In Matthew 6:6 Jesus instructs us as his followers to enter our closets when we pray. Lock the door and pray to the Father who is in secret. This book becomes your CLOSET. It will help you: Memorize one focus verse of scripture each month. - Identify and keep a prioritized list of what and who needs your prayers. - Easily locate and record how God answered a prayer. - Remember what you asked and remember what He did. - Leave behind a spiritual legacy. I don’t journal. I wish I did. I don’t have time. But I do pray. I have notebooks and Bibles and post-it notes with long-ago said prayers, but I have lost track of them through the years. Until now. My record book of prayers gives a place for my prayers and removes the mental busy-ness associated with praying. The Closet Book allows me to focus on what really matters – my time alone with God. Do you ever feel like a child standing in rough ocean waves, knocked about, feet slipping, trying to keep your head above the water? I can’t guarantee that this book will give you strength. But I can guarantee that it will direct you to the One who can.
