‘Being Ready’
“God
called to him . . . And he said, ‘Here I
am’”. (Exodus 3:4)
Prayer
Father God, You have
called out to me, and I have answered You by saying, ‘Here I am’. You have a
great plan for my life and I desire to follow You in complete submission and
obedience. Having readiness in my life means: ‘I must have a right relationship
with God and having the knowledge to know where I am’.
I never want to tell you
what to do within my life, nor do I ever want to be busy telling You where I
would like to go. I want to be ready for You, O God, and be ready to receive
the prize when Your summons comes.
I wait with great
expectations that You will open the doors of opportunities for me when You know
I am ready, or something sensational which You will send my way that I am ready
when it does come, I shall pray and cry out to You, “Here I am”, send me.
Help me to sense and
know when You, Jesus, are rising up and taking authority over some great task
within my life, that I am also ready for duty. Let me be ready and prepared to
do the smallest thing or the largest thing – it makes no difference. I have no
choice in what I want to do, but whatever God’s plans maybe, I shall be there
and ready. Father, You can put me wherever You want, in pleasant duties or
menial ones, because my union with Christ Jesus is the same as Your union with
Him. I want to be ready for a sudden surprise visit from God, being ready to
obey Him whatever He calls me to do; being filled with the Holy Spirit's power, which comes
from God, through the Holy Spirit’s of God of God's presence. He will enable and empower me to
do whatever He calls me to do in the precious name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
