A Scripture and a Prayer: “Pray – It’s Later Than We Think”

“The end of all things is at hand; therefore, be serious and watchful in your prayers.” (1 Peter 4:7)

Prayer:

Lord, while we know this verse speaks of the End Times to come, and how much closer it is, what it also says is that the end of our time might come at any time, for no one knows the day or the hour in which You may call us home to heaven. Therefore, help us, Lord, to live a life that is full of meaning, not as far as the world is concerned, but full of meaning as You have described it to be, or, for the furtherance of Your Kingdom. So, we can pray as You have directed, saying, “Your kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.” Therefore, help us to pray before we take another step, because it’s not about what we want, or the way we want it, but it’s about what You want and the way You want it. And this we ask in Jesus’s name. AMEN
