A BETTER WAY TO LOVE 2

*Study scripture*

*Ephesians 1:16-18*
_I do not cease to give thanks for you, *remembering you in my prayers, that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him,* having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints,_

*A BETTER WAY TO LOVE 2*

Another better way to love is through Prayer. Believe it or not but life is spiritual and People’s problems are most times more spiritual than physical. Sickness, poverty, Depression and all things of like manner have their roots in the spirit realm. Seldom will someone feel anxiety, depression, unloved or even sickly while in a church service or Holy Ghost prayer meeting as God’s presence is evident in such places but its until they leave that atmosphere that they receive these attacks meaning this is spiritual.

Bible says in *James 5:16*
that “…._The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.”_. The prayer of a righteous man avails man. When the Devil asked for Peter to sift him as wheat, what was Jesus’ immediate response? It was prayer. Jesus prayed for Peter that his faith fail him not. The Devil as gotten hold of many brethren and sifts them as wheat; they are just lost in so many things anxieties, addictions and being tossed here and there by every wind of doctrine or people themselves because someone is not praying for them.

Its also important how we ought to pray, a better approach to prayer. From our theme scripture, Paul prayed for the saints in Ephesus that God would give them a spirit of wisdom and Revelation in the knowledge of Him. That was a distinct prayer. Again what men need primarily is this Spirit of wisdom and Revelation in knowledge so that they may know Truth and be set free. Its through this that we know what is the hope of His calling and the riches of His inheritance towards us. Therefore, make it a practice as Paul did to always Pray for the saints in need of love that above all the eyes of their hearts enlightened and that their faith fail them not.
