Pray to your Father- Matthew 6:6.  So I prayed to the God of heaven -Nehemiah 2:4.


Today, before you pray take a moment to think about who you are talking to. You have complete access to the God of Heaven, the Creator of everything hat is, the Great Uncaused Cause. The God who has made all that we know and far more than we can comprehend waits for us. He orchestrates the minute details of our lives with as much care as He gave to developing the unseen universe. His power, might, wisdom and love are far beyond our comprehension. And, best of all, He invites us to call Him Abba. He's our Dad  and  our God. Our position in His kingdom is secure, our authority assured. Today, before you pray, Praise Him for all that He is and all that He allows you to be.
