Praying To God In Secret

 January 22, 2025

Verse of the day - Matthew 6:6 (NRSV)

But whenever you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

In chapter 9 of my third book, Jesus speaks to us about prayer.

Excerpt from Come To The Cross

Not only did I create mankind in My image, but I also created man to worship Me alone!  I spent time in prayer with My Heavenly Father.  I desire My dear children to do the same.  Pray to Me in secret.  When you pray to Me in secret, I will answer you.  Only I know the desires of your heart.  Blessed are you when you speak to Me about what is troubling you instead of mankind.  I alone know the answers to your problems.

If Jesus spent time in the Presence of His Holy Father in Heaven, how much more time do we need to spend in prayer with Jesus?  Jesus desires us to come to Him in prayer.  He alone has the answers we need.  When we take time out of our schedule to be in the Presence of God, we are truly blessed.
