"Pray without ceasing." - 1 Thessalonians 5:17 

While scanning FaceBook, LinkedIn, and a few News sites on my phone this morning, I began to think about how much time we truly spend on these devices...

And then it hit me... What if?

What if... I decided NOT to pick up the phone.  What if... instead of scrolling and tapping the screen, I instead began to seek the Lord?  Truly, what if?

I remember a minister on Sid Roth share how the miracles increased in his ministry, as he began to pray one hour per day in the spirit.

Pray in tongues for one hour?  Sounds nice, yet how could I ever find time?  I'm sure others have felt the same way...   Between family time, counseling clients, studying, and business ventures - how could anyone pray in the spirit for one hour?

So I did some research, and yes on my smartphone - I found out that the average person now spends 128 minutes every day on their smartphone!  That is an average, some spend more!  Over 2 hours a day checking text messages, e-mails, FaceBook, etc... 2 Hours a DAY!

Reading that shocking information, I closed my screen, closed my eyes, and spent the rest of the time praying in the spirit.  I am personally committing myself to cutting the phone time DRAMATICALLY, and spending more time praying to my Heavenly Father!  Who else is with me?

What if... the next time you catch yourself going for the phone, and you will now that have read this - lol, I invite you to slow down and simply pray.

I have caught myself TWICE in the last 30 minutes going for my phone to "check messages/updates" - now, I will spend that time praying for my family, the ministry, and yes YOU!  

FaceBook update?  What about updating the Father on how you feel?

LinkedIn scan for a new job?  Why not ask the Father for promotion?

Looking funny jokes and viral videos to lift your spirit?  What about a Glory filled moment from the throne room?  Let the oil of JOY anoint you!

Downloads?  Ask Holy Spirit for spiritual downloads of revelation!

Do you need to walk deeper in the anointing of God and finally see the miracles at your fingertips instead of on YouTube?  Pray without ceasing, and expect the one you pray to, to work through YOU!

Are you to the challenge?  Can we surrender some of our smartphone time with some anointed worship, soaking, and prayer?  

Try for the next 30 days and watch your life become a life of miracles and supernatural revelation!

"When men tell you to consult mediums and spiritists, who whisper and mutter, should not a people inquire of their God? Why consult the dead on behalf of the living?"- Isaiah 8:19

The spirit realm is very real. 

The enemy is working hard to make the demonic realm of the supernatural seem "make believe" or "fun" - the truth is too many people are biting into the fruitof deception.

Mediums, Psychics, and others are tapping into the spiritual realm through demonic access points.  Can they access the dead spirits?  Many can - but this is strictly forbidden in the word of God. 

Not only is this forbidden by the word of God, it is truly inferior to communicating with our very creator - yes YOU can communicate and hear from the Lord!  If you can hear from and receive revelation from God, why would we ever delve into a realm of darkness for mere knowledge?

Revelation always trumps mere knowledge - and Christ brings revelation!

True prophecy is hearing...
