There are challenges coming in the future that have us truly looking to the Lord for answers. About four days ago in devotions I came across the account of Abram (not yet Abraham) who went to war on the behalf of the King of Sodom.
After the battle was won Abram was offered the spoils of war. But he made it clear that he had made a solomn vow.
"I have lift up mine hand unto the Lord, the most high God, the possessor of heaven and earth, That I will not take from a thread even to a shoelatchet, and that I will not take any thing that is thine." Genesis 14:23.
Then God brought Abram forth abroad and said, "Look now toward heaven." The tent was exchanged for the sky, moreover, for heaven.
That is what God does, He brings us forth out of our small imprisonments and He sets our feet in a large place. He puts new heavenly songs in our mouths.
How is it with your love? Is it a thing of the tent or the sky? How is it with your prayers? How big are they? Will a tent contain them, or do they move with the scope of the heavens?
Look now towards the heavens and see there is never any limit to what you ask for. This should be your outlook if you are the companion and friend of God.
"Prayer is not always petition, sometimes it is just communion. It is the exquisite ministry of friendship."
- John Henry Jowett
