Enjoy Fellowship with the Father Through Prayer Lilian Jude

Prayer is reasoning with God on the platform of his word, and you develop confidence in God by spending time in his presence. When you spend time in prayer and his word, He impacts himself to you, and you begin to understand the nature, personality, attributes, mannerisms, and style in which our Heavenly Father operates. The successful Prayer life is one of self-denial. It is recognition of his Lordship, a giving up of much that is not wrong in itself but that hinders and takes our time. A prayer life doesn't mean hours spent in actual prayer, but hours of study and meditation in the word until the life becomes literally absorbed in the word and the word becomes a very part of us. One could spend hours in prayer fruitlessly if the heart is not prepared beforehand. The preparation of the heart comes from meditation in the word, meditation on what we are in Christ, what He is to us, and what the Holy Spirit can mean to a life that becomes God minded. Prayer is fellowship with the Father and with Jesus, a cultivation of a habit of communion. It is learning to take advantage of our rights in Christ. It is assuming the responsibility that those rights give us. This exciting book shares with you these truths and some principles of enjoying fellowship with the Father.
