God has time and time brought me back to John 15:7 which says, "If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you."
More and more I'm realising the depth and meaning of the word "if" and the words "remain in me". The promise of answered prayer is conditional on my part. I'm coming to the conclusion that the powerlessness of most prayer (including my own) is simple because I/we have not discovered what it really means to remain in Jesus.
"Lord help me today make choices and take steps of obedience that ensure that I remain in you more and more."
