Hi All,
I told you how after finding the scripture in Deut.6:4&5 which is to love the Lord our God with all our hearts, and with all our souls and with all our might, that I began saying to God those very words. Not because I FELT them but because His words said it. I was learning that prayer is repeating His words back to Him so He could bring it to pass in my life. I think most people have learned to speak to God the problem and hope after making Him feel sorry for them, that then maybe He'll move. Well let's be honest, that doesn't work! Pray His word, of course, that gives you the responsibility to find out the word. I love that He gives us the right to use His word and come out of every thing that would keep us in bondage. If you are new at this begin saying back to Him these scriptures; Deut. 6 4&5 , Psalms34:4,9,19 , Psalms 50: 14&15& 23 , Psalms 91 ( my most favorite )Psalms 103:2:6 . Start with those, say them back to Him and watch Him move in your life. Know He LOVES us and wants to help us but we have to know His way!
After saying " I love You with all my heart, and with all my soul, and with all my might", I began to feel love for Him. Imagine being afraid of God your whole life then just out of obedience, speaking His word to Him that a lovely change would happen on the inside. That is the perfect love that 1Johns1:5 and 1John4:18 write about. This works, this is success
