Hi,
Something that has always annoyed me and been a burden for me is praying for long amounts of time and waiting on God.
So many men of old who were so on fire for God and used by God or when they got cold they would revert back to this and it would renew them greatly. I'm talking about praying for long amounts of time. Hours, just for a solution to a problem, just to pray for revival, just for God to renew their strength.
I feel that this is one of the major things holding me back. I mean I can pray for 30-40 minutes or sometimes an hour no problem, but it's as if I haven't grown in my prayer life in a long while.
Does anyone have any practical pointers for praying through, and waiting on the Lord in prayer for a particular thing? I mean for those big issues.
Have any of you done it / still do it and can explain to me?
or can you refer me to a book or work written on it?
Thanks, Take care.
Bye
