/ "While we ordinarily first bring our own needs to God in prayer, and then think of what belongs to God and His interests, the Master reverses the order.
The lesson is of more importance than we think.
In true worship the Father must be first, must be all.
The sooner I learn to forget about myself in the desire He may be glorified, the richer will the blessings be that prayer will bring to myself.
No one ever loses by what he sacrifices for the Father."

Challenge
1. Make a fresh commitment to get to know your Maker at a whole new level and depth.
* Would you want to know the God of the Bible and experience Him in a deeper manner?
* Are you hungry to know God more and learn about His characters?
* Have you been reading God's love letters to you, i.e. the Bible, regularly?
2. Resolve in your heart to "hallow the name of God" with your actions and attitudes
* Is God glorified and honoured in your lives?
Do you trust God wholeheartedly, and placed your unwavering faith in Him?
* Do you fear God reverentially and obey Him unreservedly?
Has God been exalted, or have the problems and challenges been magnified in your life?
