Re: Prayer by Verbal Bean
The more the flesh is subdued, the more we acquire the mind of the Spirit. I do believe there is something about an hour in prayer, on a regular basis and a 24 hour fast, on a regular basis that subdues the flesh. I would question anyone's commitment to God who will not set aside at least an hour to pray with some consistency. I don't think that God is timing our prayers and making an hour every day a requirement, but I agree that Jesus was giving us a secret when he said "could you not pray with me for one hour."
Our flesh is what keeps us from knowing Him. The more of our flesh that is subdued, the more of Him we will know. The more of Him we know, the more of Him the world will see.

Some personality he must have had. People showed up to his funeral to make sure he was dead.

I see an hour of prayer as good build us up thing. Morning is the best, I just don't see it as a go to hell if your dont pray a hr a day.

But surely you know the man? Did we not see you with him in the synagogues?
