Make a commitment to God's plan in your life through prayer.

Many people aren't diligent to fulfill God's plan for their life, because they're not hearing God speak to them and they're not talking to the Lord on a diligent, regular basis.

A diligent, consistent time in daily prayer will produce results in your life.

I want to encourage you about conversational prayer with God. Conversational prayer is simply talking and listening. Many people have a prayer declaration. It's a one-sided affair all the way.  That is, they tell God everything and when they're through, they hang up the phone.

We do not serve a dead God. We serve a living God. If He talked in days gone by, He's still talking today.

Just as He walked with Peter and John on the shores of Galilee, He still walks with us. This means we can talk with Him and listen to Him.

The more we commune with Him, the more clearly we will understand His plan for our lives.

It's not just a master plan for all of life and eternity. It's a daily plan, 24 hours a day.
