One of our modern-day sayings that really annoys me is, “Well, all we can do now is pray.” This may sound spiritual to the carnal hearer, but any Spirit-filled believer realizes immediately they’re listening to someone who knows little or nothing of God.
Prayer is not the last thing on the agenda, it’s first and foremost. Prayer is always to be our top priority, without exception.
Our problem in times of crises is attempting to find help horizontally, but the scriptures tell us, “Vain is the help of man.” Our only hope is to be found vertically. David knew this: “My help commeth from the Lord, which made heaven and earth.” And so you can see the cause of our dilemma is a directional one.
We came into this world in a fetal position, and leave it in a fetal position. You would think we’d take the hint!
