Psalm 5:3, “O Lord, in the morning you hear my voice; in the morning I prepare a sacrifice for you and watch.”
So often we pray and move right on to the next thing. We fail to watch, which I believe is a form of unbelief. Do we really expect an answer?
If I asked you a question and then walked away, wouldn’t that communicate to you that I didn’t expect you to answer me?
When we pray, we must do so with anticipation – let us WATCH with great expectation for God’s answer.
Lord, My mind wanders, my heart is distracted. Forgive my laziness and idolatry. I want to be back sitting at your feet, gazing at your face -listening to your voice. I want to pray – fellowship and interact with You. I want to love prayer – I want to love You – I want to WATCH and SEE You act.
