And, as we have been talking: it is impossible to experience God\u2019s presence without a prayer.\r\n\r\nToday, I would like to talk even more specifically about prayer. Not only prayer helps us enter God\u2019s presence,\u00a0<strong>it is a source for godly revelations.<\/strong>\r\n\r\nWe saw that the secret of success of Moses as a leader was the fact that he spent time with God. Moses\u00a0became closer to God in his prayer and God became closer to him. Godly revelation is the fruit of such intimacy with God.\r\n\r\nDue to the fact that Moses was with God, he heard from heaven and it helped him be successful.\r\n<h6>\u201cThe LORD said to Moses, &#8220;Come up to Me on the mountain and stay here, and I will give you the tablets of stone, with the law and commands I have written for their instruction.&#8221;\u00a0(Exodus 24:12)<\/h6>\r\nMoses received messages from God because he spent time with Him.\r\n\r\nIf you want to be effective servant of God, whatever the quality of your ministry would be, you must learn to receive the messages from God.\r\n\r\nGod knows the needs of people whom you serve. He will always give you fresh manna that the people whom you serve would be fed and encouraged every day. If you want to be a successful Christian, allow God to give you a fresh word from heaven every day. Then you will always be fresh\u00a0and fruitful.\r\n\r\nMoses continually heard from heaven, God talked to him face to face like with a friend, because Moses was striving to be closer to God.\r\n<h6>\u201cThe LORD would speak to Moses face to face, as a man speaks with his friend. Then Moses would return to the camp, but his young aide Joshua son of Nun did not leave the tent.\u201d\u00a0(Exodus 33:11)<\/h6>\r\n<h6>\u201cHe said, &#8220;Listen to My words: &#8220;When a prophet of the LORD is among you, I reveal Myself to him in visions, I speak to him in dreams. But this is not true of My servant Moses; he is faithful in all My house.\u00a0With him I speak face to face, clearly and not in riddles; he sees the form of the LORD.\u201d\u00a0(Numbers 12:6-8a)<\/h6>\r\nGod spoke to Moses face to face, not in riddles and visions. Moses could clearly distinguish when it was God speaking and when not.\r\n\r\nIf Moses was able to become closer to God, then why should we not do it?\r\n\r\nIf a prayer is a source for godly revelations, then wisdom requires that anyone who is thirsty for His revelations approaches God in a prayer.\r\n\r\nWe shall continue tomorrow!\r\n\r\nMay God richly bless you and give you\u00a0a revelation about the importance of prayers!\r\n\r\nPastor\u00a0Rufus Ajiboye","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Moses received messages from God because he spent time with Him.\r\n\r\nIf you want to be effective servant of God, whatever the quality of your ministry would be, you must learn to receive the messages from God.\r\n\r\nGod knows the needs of people whom you serve.
