Job 10:2
Shew me wherefore thou contendest with me.
Job 10:2
Shew me wherefore thou contendest with me.
The Lenten season begins. It is a time to be with you, Lord, in a special way, a time to pray, to fast, and thus to follow you on your way to Jerusalem, to Golgotha, and to the final victory over death.
There is a reason that supplication is the last of the four parts of the ACTS (adoration, confession, thanksgiving, supplication). Without a recognition of who God is (adoration), and an acknowledgement of who we are (confession), and a rejoicing that we are not destroyed, but saved (thanksgiving), then our prayers become hollow, and we are not worshipping God, but asking God to worship us.
