MONDAYEVANGELISTIC PRAYER
Chronological Bible Reading: 2 Samuel 4-6; Luke 12:31-59
Monday, April 18
Song of Solomon 8:6 Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm:
for love is strong as death;
Master and King:
Death is the destroyer of the human race, but your love is ever more
mighty! I feel like I have a barely-living love toward you, but your love for me
surpasses all power. I do love you, Lord. Maybe by your grace I could even die
for you if called upon. But I confess my current love can scarcely endure scoffing
and being made fun of, much less death. Surely it is your love for me that is
spoken of by Solomon. And your love for __________ and __________ who do
not yet know youfor you are a matchless lover of souls!
Your love indeed was stronger than the worst death, because it endured the
trial of the cross triumphantly. It was a lingering death, but love survived the
torture. It was a disgraceful death, but love despised the shame. It was an unjust
death, but your love bore my iniquities. It was a forsaken, lonely death from
which the Father hid his face, but your love endured the curse and accomplished
my salvation. Jesus, lover of my soul, shed abroad such love through me!
Never such love. Never such death. It was a desperate duel, but love
conquered. What then my heart? Why do I have no emotion when contemplating
such heavenly affection? Yes Lord, I long, I pant to feel your love and to share it.
Why should I be too depressed to love Jesus, who has a love as strong
as death for me? He deserves it and I desire it. The martyrs felt your love and
spread it, why not me? They mourned their weakness, yet were made strong, why
not me? Grace gave them unswerving consistency; there is the same grace for me!
For every drop of crimson blood thus shed to make me live,
O wherefore, wherefore have not I a thousand lives to give?
A DAILY PATTERN FOR PRAYER & BIBLE READING
Chronological Bible Reading: 2 Samuel 13-15; Luke 15
Thursday, April 21
Gen. 45:9-11 Haste ye, and go up to my father, and say unto him, Thus saith thy son
Joseph, God hath made me lord of all Egypt: come down unto me, tarry not: and thou shalt
dwell in the land of Goshen, and thou shalt be near unto me, thou, and thy children, and thy
childrens children, and thy flocks, and thy herds, and all that thou hast: and there will I
nourish thee
Some glad morning when this life is oer Ill fly away
To a home on Gods celestial shore Ill fly away
When the shadows of this life have grown Ill fly away
Like a bird from prison bars has flown Ill fly away
Just a few more weary days and then Ill fly away
To a land where joys shall never end Ill fly away
Ill fly away (O glory)
Ill fly away (in the morning)
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by
Ill fly away (fly away)
Albert E. Brumley

INSTRUCTIONS:
Baptists tend to ridicule liturgical churches that use "prepared prayers" because
they lack spontaneity. But for many Baptists, their prayers are so predictable they are
no more spontaneous than written-out prayers. The result is we end up praying the
same things over and over.
This daily Prayer Diary will prompt you on a wide range of prayer requests you
might not normally think of, while forcing you to articulate a deeper devotion to
God. We have included a daily Bible reading schedule. This plan will take you
through the Bible chronologically in a year.
Do not read ahead and do not try to catch up. Use each day as it comes. Then
you can know that on any given day, dozens of other people are lifting their hearts in
the same mind to God. Pray what is written, but use what is prayed as a springboard
for your own relationship with God. You learn to pray by praying.
Alan
Secret prayer is the secret of prayer, the soul of prayer, the seal of prayer, the
strength of prayer. If you do not pray alone you do not pray at all. Our Lord Jesus
Christ would go nowhere till He had prayed. He would attempt nothing till He had
prayed.
Oh, says one, I live in the spirit of prayer, and therefore I do not need times
and seasons for prayer. And do you think that Christ did not live in the spirit of
prayer? Yet He had to have his special time and place to pray. Do not fall under the
injurious notion that because your spirit cries to God in prayer all day long, therefore
there must not be some season for more immediately coming into Gods presence. If
you imagine this, I am afraid that it will prove a snare to your feet. The Lord Jesus
Christ, who knew better than you do that the main thing is the spirit of prayer rather
than the act of prayer, yet Himself retired into desert places to maintain the act and
exercise of prayer. Be spiritual. Be baptized into the spirit of prayer. But do not be
deceived by the enemy, who can steal a spirit away while we dream that we only
spiritualize it. We had better preserve the very bones of prayerthe posture, the
time, placerather than let it all ooze away into an impalpable mental condition.
God keep us prayerful. He will do so if He makes us like His dear Son.
Charles H. Spurgeon, 1834-92
