SCRIPTURE: And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering. Luke 9:29.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Prayer changes people. This means we are changed into the likeness of Jesus Christ by prayer.
It has been established that the buoyancy of prayer is a mark of total dedication to God. To be prayerful is to be dedicated to God. In other words, you cannot be dedicated to God if you are prayerless.
Our Lord Jesus showed us a good example by His lifestyle of prayer. Mark 1:35 says,
And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.
It is very important to know that there are products of dedication to God through prayer. There are benefits of consistent prayer.
Now, one of the products of prayer is, TRANSFORMATION of life and destiny.
The altar of prayer is the altar of transformation.
In Luke 9:29, the Bible says, And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering.
Prayer changes people. This means we are changed into the likeness of Jesus Christ by prayer. When Jesus prayed, the fashion of His countenance was altered. So, the altar of prayer is the altar of transformation.
For example, many things have changed in my own life by virtue of prayer. Some years ago, I was someone who could not address a crowd but now, prayer has changed that in my life. Prayer not only changes things; prayer changes the one who prays. The altar of prayer is the altar of transformation of life and destiny.
Remember this: Prayer changes people. This means we are changed into the likeness of Jesus Christ by prayer.
