SPECIFIC, BITE-SIZE REQUESTS!



L
ots of things go easier when they are bite-size. If you have a major task to get done, for example, it helps to divide it into smaller units and tackle them one at a time. This is true whether you are redecorating the house, packing for a vacation, or directing a project. The same is true of prayer.

As an active member of a small prayer group this end, we learned a lot about specific prayers. It is wiser to ask for something smaller and more specific and really believe that it will be answered than make huge prayers without seeing results. Everytime we make all-inclusive requests of God, nothing happened, but when we begin asking for bite-size requests, it's a big YES!

If you expect specific answers,
be specific with your prayers!
