Collaboration with God - Love Worth Finding - March 8
March 8, 2025 – Collaboration with God
2 Corinthians 6:1
Sermon: 2072 The Secret of Effectual Prayer, Part 2
Pray Over This
“We then, as workers together with Him also plead with you not to receive the grace of God in vain.”
2 Corinthians 6:1
Ponder This
The effectual prayer is rooted in the purpose of God. The prayer that gets to Heaven starts in Heaven. Prayer is God’s way of getting Heaven’s will done on Earth, not man’s way of getting man’s will done in Heaven. When we pray, we close the circuit.
Why has God allowed us to pray? Prayer is so mysterious. God knows what we have need of before we ask Him so why should I ask God for what He already knows I need? Further, God loves me. Why should I have to persuade a loving God to bless me or give me what I need? Couldn’t God do it without our praying? What is the reason for prayer?
God has given us the privilege of collaborating with Him. God in His administration of the Universe has called us as laborers together with Him. Almighty God says, “Adrian, I want you to help Me run the Universe.” You say, “That’s arrogance.” Well, then blame the Apostle Paul. He said we’re “workers together with Him.” We work together with God as we work with one another, and we work with God in administrating the Universe. God wants to move through His people. We work with Almighty God through prayer.
- What is your prayer life like? Do you treat prayer as a privilege?
- How does God’s invitation to collaborate with Him make you feel? What are some things in which you hear Him calling you to partner with Him in prayer?
Practice This
Pray the Lord’s Prayer from Matthew 6:9-13, concentrating on your personal eagerness to join Him in His work. Pray also for those God lays on your heart.
