In Luke 13:35, the Lord said, "you will not see me until you say, `Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!"
Christ will never enforce Himself upon us. If we want to see and experience His powerful life over us, we must first seek to know Him and accept that He is the Son of God, sent to redeem the world. He deserves all the honor, glory and praise as we seek to see His face.
When you utter the words "Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!", you are not only acknowledging and accepting Christ but moreover giving Him the honor, glory and praise that He deserves. To me, this is a powerful prayer in itself.
A lot of Christians today recite prayers taken from different devotions or prayer books without really understanding its meaning and purpose. Prayer only becomes effective and powerful it comes from the heart. It is not wrong to use these prayers in communicating with God for even the Lord taught us how to pray. It's power rests upon its deeper meaning that we should learn to process and internalize.
Give the Lord today a good welcome as another day unfolds with so much hope that He will always guide you through, whatever the circumstances may be.
Remember, "A Life without Him, is good for nothing."
