God Is One Prayer Away


It takes just one prayer—your prayer—to fill your temple or the temple of the person next to you with the full glory of God.

April’s Awakening, Day 4

Prayer is the natural and joyous breathing of the spiritual life by which the heavenly atmosphere is inhaled and then exhaled in prayer.

 —Andrew Murray

Don’t forget that God is a prayer away. No, there is no quick fix for every obstacle you will face in life, but if you are a Believer, you have the very thing that will bring peace in times of trouble (John 14:27). Pray to God and He will answer. He promised to never leave or abandon you.

 —Creflo Dollar

Prayer does not change God, it changes us. It deepens insight, increases intuitive perception, expands consciousness. It transforms personality. 

 Wilferd A. Peterson, “The Art of Living Treasure Chest”
There may be times when you are the only person on earth praying for someone else—and your intercession can change that person’s entire life.

 Joyce Meyer, “The Power of Simple Prayer”  



if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land. Now my eyes will be open and my ears attentive to the prayers offered in this place. 2 Chronicles 7:14–15 NIV   



When Solomon finished praying, fire came down from heaven and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices, and the glory of the Lord filled the temple.

2 Chronicles 7:1 NIV 



Don’t you know that you yourselves are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in your midst? 1 Corinthians 3:16 NIV   



            One prayer. The glory of the Lord fills the temple. You, beloved believer, are now God’s temple. One prayer. And the glory of the Lord can fill you and transform you into the most magnificent of temples. God and His miracles are just one prayer away—your prayer. Don’t ever think that your prayer is not good enough or powerful enough to bring the glory of the Lord to this earth and to fill an empty, abandoned temple and make it glorious and new in Him. He’s just one prayer away, maybe for you, maybe for someone you don’t even know. Just one prayer.
