Prayer Warrior Watches

Be on the alert.
As we wait for Him to answer, to accept our praise, our thanksgiving, we are to watch for Him, to look to Him.
Not waiting with anxiety but remaining positive.
There should be anticipation in our eyes and our words as we talk with him.
He is our friend, our guide, our master.
Not to be commanded by us.
Not to be persuaded by well-designed words.
He is touched by the feelings of our infirmities and knows all things.
Thus, he cannot deny himself the compassion he has for his children.
Knowing this, we need to wait in simple faith and take heed.
Lest a little slumber, a little sleep our confidence begins to dwindle in quietness.
Our eyes can skip off from him.
Temptation can loom large before our sight with the lazy smile of seduction.
Without a doubt, we can slip, lose our stance and stumble headlong into the trap of the enemy.
Best to remain vigilant with our eyes fixed on Him, always alert and on the lookout knowing with all confidence and certainty, he answers all our prayers.

Watch and pray, that you enter not into temptation; the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. Matthew 26:41
