Samuel Chadwick has said that one of Satan's greatest aim is to destroy our prayer lives. Satan is not afraid of prayerless study, prayerless work or prayerless religion. As some one has said that he trembles when he sees the weakest sinner on the knees.
In our churches the meeting that is in trouble is our prayer meetings. In our Christian work, prayer meetings are neglected. Satan brings many distractions, more office work to keep us away from the prayer meetings. The reason the Korean churches have grown is because of prayer. The meet at odd times for prayer. How many of us can meet in the lunch time for 15minutes? How many can sacrifice certain things to meet for prayer? That is what the believers of the Korean church did. That is why they are on the increase.
The early church "joined together constantly in prayer" (Acts 1:14). The lack and neglect of prayer is Satan's ploy to keep us from drawing closer to God. We must bring Christ back into our lives and our programs.
We have many books and many messages on prayer. Do we need to hear more on prayer? It is time to make our prayer life alive and bring back life to our prayer meetings.
As I write this article, I have a responsibility into look into my prayer life and surrender my life to Him.
