God’s people gave themselves to prayer as a priority. Not just when it was convenient or could be worked in to other ministries, but as its own important practice. Theirs was a church driven by calling on the Lord for direction rather than by trusting in their own strategies, personalities, or emotions to determine what they should do.

Prayer is an act of trust, an expression of faith: we rely on the Lord for guidance and direction, and we believe that his ways are infinitely better than what we would come up with ourselves. Prayer: Father, would you stoke up in us a desire to pray? To make us see all too clearly our own limits so that we would have to (and get to!) joyfully trust you as the Lord who has no limits. Teach us to lean not on our own understanding, but to seek you and trust you in all things, from salvation to the return of our King.
