THE UNRIVALLED POWER OF PRAYER
We know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the
Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings
which cannot be uttered.
Romans 8:26
http://www.SearchGodsWord.org/desk/?query=ro+8:26&sr=1
We realize that we are energized by the Holy Spirit for prayer; we
know what it is to pray in the Spirit; but we do not so often realize
that the Holy Spirit Himself prays in us prayers which we cannot
utter. When we are born again of God and are indwelt by the Spirit of
God, He expresses for us the unutterable.
"He," the Spirit in you, "maketh intercession for the saints
according to the will of God," and God searches your heart not to
know what your conscious prayers are, but to find out what is the
prayer of the Holy Spirit.
The Spirit of God needs the nature of the believer as a shrine in
which to offer His intercession. "Your body is the temple of the Holy
Ghost." When Jesus Christ cleansed the temple, He "would not suffer
that any man should carry any vessel through the temple." The Spirit
of God will not allow you to use your body for your own convenience.
Jesus ruthlessly cast out all them that sold and bought in the
temple, and said - "My house shall be called the house of prayer; but
ye have made it a den of thieves."
Have we recognized that our body is the temple of the Holy Ghost? If
so, we must be careful to keep it undefiled for Him. We have to
remember that our conscious life, though it is only a tiny bit of our
personality, is to be regarded by us as a shrine of the Holy Ghost.
He will look atter the unconscious part that we know nothing of; but
we must see that we guard the conscious part for which we are
responsible.
