Ephesians 6:14
And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.
Children everywhere are making their Santa lists and getting them mailed right now, or maybe it is emailed. They believe they will get everything on that list. They have faith that they have been good enough and Santa will grant their wishes or at least pick one or two items off of it. Even adults are asking each other what they would like for Christmas, I know my mother-in-law has asked me, God bless her heart.
Now, I know God is not Santa. Nope, He is so much more and so why don’t we believe in asking Him for things on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests? No, I am not saying make a long list of material goods you want and present it to Him. However, if there is something you really want why not ask God to help you find a way to get it? I have prayed about jobs, a newer car, a car space, a new house, and even a new refrigerator, plus more. I didn’t expect Him to deliver them down the chimney, but I did expect Him to help me get the right things in His timing. You know what? He always came through.
No prayer is too small or too big for our God. If it is truly on your heart, then it should be truly expressed to God. No, God is not a genie or even Santa Claus, but he does love you and wants to help. He also loves to make you smile. Just like you do when you give out your presents.
Lord, I am so thankful that I can come to you with any need, and yes, even my wants. ~amen
