I was not intending to do a sequel to last week’s post but here we are.
I got another revelation this week about prayer during my quiet time that I would like to share.
It really encouraged me and changed the way I see my prayers even more.
“And when He had taken it, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down
before the Lamb. Each one had a harp and they were holding golden bowls full of incense,
which are the prayers of God’s people.”
Revelation 5:8
“Each one had a harp and they were holding golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers
of God’s people.”
So in this passage of scripture we learn two amazing things.
Firstly, our prayers are not in some random place, or filed away in a place to be forgotten.
They are not thrown away, discarded or lost.
On the contrary, they are been treated with care and are obviously precious in God’s eyes
because they are in golden bowls!
And secondly, our prayers are in the very throne room of God (Revelation 5:8)
Our prayers are very important to God. Don’t let the enemy lie to you that your prayers don’t
mean much to God. The word shows us the truth about how important our prayers are.
So keep praying and know that as your pray your prayers are in golden bowls in the very throne room
of God!
“The Lord detests the sacrifice of the wicked but He delights in the prayers of the upright.”
Proverbs 15:8
