Make Straight the Way of the Lord.....deno.
1 Peter 3:7.....New King James Version.
7)...SO THAT YOUR PRAYERS BE NOT HINDERED.
......Even if you go your separate ways, the love of God in you will pray for that person. But the flesh part of you most of the time will walk in vanity, pride, and promote forms of evil in ill will words and actions. The save face actions and sins.
......You have to be wise and not fall or slide into the snares set for you by the enemy. Sinful relationship snares Satan is a master at and a master at setting them before us. We walk into them or we resist. Unfortunately many of us have strained at a gnat in this area of life and swallowed the camels. We all live and learn and sometimes the hard way.
.......The snares and schemes of Satan against us all are many. He is always trying to set against us a trap or a snare or a scheme for us to fall into so that he can get an advantage over us and HINDER OUR PRAYERS. He is after our power. He is after our effectiveness. He is at work against us trying to get the Spirit of God in us in a quenched condition and the ears of God as closed to our prayers.
......Satan knows Strife hinders prayers.. Anger hinders prayers. Slander hinders prayers. Gossip hinders prayers. Not walking in the love of God hinders prayers and many other things hinder prayers and all those things he is trying to promote and get us attached to. He wants those things in us..Jesus said, Satan comes but he finds nothing in me. Our problem has been that Satan comes to us and he finds our gardens full of all kinds of sins like anger, malice, gossip, idol talk, strife, vanity, pride etc.which are his weeds planted that choke the word and our prayers..
.......If Satan cannot get us with a left, as soon as he can he will be swinging a right. Remember Jesus on the mount of temptation resisted the devil and the bible says the devil left him to come again later with plan B. The first temptations Satan formed against Jesus he brought to Jesus and his mind himself. From then on the rest of them came mostly thru Satan using flesh people whose hearts affections were not set on things above..
.......The true strength, health and condition of our walk with God is revealed most often in prayer results. We all learn this from the words of Jesus himself and Jesus always gives it to us straight as it is. Jesus said, those that abide in Me and My Words abide in them (If they do so in the manner that really is pleasing the Father) they ask what they will and God does it (John 15:17)..Those are Christ our mighty Counselor's very own Words...
.......Our prayer results reveal the real truth of our real fruit.. Are we giving God copper and tin style devotion each day when He expects no less than pure gold?....God help us all....Lord baptize us with the refining fire of the Holy Spirit......deno.
