A Hunger For The Presence Of The Lord
The word hunger means to crave- long, to earnestly desire, to go after, to pursue.
PURSUING GOD IN PRAYER KEEPS US FROM GIVING INTO TEMPTATION.
Matthew 26:37-41-AMP
And taking with Him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, He began to show grief and distress of mind and was deeply depressed.
38 Then He said to them, My soul is very sad and deeply grieved, so that I am almost dying of sorrow. Stay here and keep awake and keep watch with Me.
39 And going a little farther, He threw Himself upon the ground on His face and prayed saying, My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass away from Me; nevertheless, not what I will [not what I desire], but as You will and desire.
40 And He came to the disciples and found them sleeping, and He said to Peter, What! Are you so utterly unable to stay awake and keep watch with Me for one hour?
41 All of you must keep awake (give strict attention, be cautious and active) and watch and pray, that you may not come into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
PURSUING GOD IN PRAYER IS MORE THAN GETTING PHYSICAL NEEDS MET, IT’S BUILDING RELATIONSHIP WITH OUR LORD.
