Our daily habits either help us or hurt us. Someone said that the success or failure in our lives mostly consist of 4 to 6 things that we habitually do every day. The Lord Jesus taught us in the Lord’s prayer to DAILY pray and ask Him for our daily bread (Matthew 6)! In that statement, bread is both a physical and spiritual request and need. That includes daily food and the word of God, which is our spiritual food. This means that prayer is part of a Christian’s success in life. If we are neglecting daily prayer and meditation on His word, we are ignoring one of the most important disciplines that lead to real success. God told Joshua that if He would meditate on His words, he would make his way successful. Why would we purposefully ignore the practice and discipline of prayer? Most likely, it is because we don’t really understand just how important prayer is. Do we eat every day? Do we breathe every day? Do we sleep every day? All these actions are vital to life. Well guess what, so is prayer and daily meditation on God’s word. It’s time to make prayer and God’s word an absolute priority in our lives!
Matthew 6: 11 “Give us this day our daily bread”
