The Throne of Grace

Romans 12:12

Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.

Grace is the overflowing favor of God.  This awesome and marvelous gift is always there to be drawn upon.  Prayer is the exercise of drawing upon God's grace.

The throne of grace is open 24-7.  The line into the throne is prayer.  If the throne is available continuously, why would we only access it at certain times?  If the bank would give us funds at anytime, wouldn't we run there continuously?  Wouldn't we run there as often as possible?  Everyone at the bank would surely know us as a regular within their doors.  How can we then miss the opportunity to regularly access the greatest treasure on earth and in heaven - the throne room of Almighty God.

Let us draw upon the grace of God continually through our constant prayers.  For God's grace not only provides our strength during trial and tribulation, but God's grace also provides God's favor in every aspect of our lives.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, we thank You for the constant flow of Your grace into our lives.  Teach us, Father, to come to You throughout the day, not just at certain assigned times.  Show us how to come into Your presence without ceasing.  May we learn to humble ourselves before You endlessly as we come to You in prayer, bringing You the love, the honor and the praise that You alone deserve.
