Found it isn't about me

 Pray in the Spirit at all times. Pray with all kinds of prayers, and ask for everything you need. To do this you must always be ready. Never give up. Always pray for all of God’s people - Ephesians 6:18

 (Before you read the entry, this is what God taught me through his word and Oswald Chambers devotional " my my utmost for his highest". If you're making this devotional I would love to hear what God is doing in your life through this devotional)

Sometimes when we are walking on God's path we find that we're still being a self-centered person. We find this bad news when we realize that we're thinking only about us, our success, or our benefit. When you become part of God's warriors you see that it is normal to "fight against our self-centered desires". 

God is is teaching me that those desires can affect the intercession for others. I got pretty scared when I heard about this, 'cause maybe I was interceding in a wrong way for others. Maybe you'll be thinking : how's that? Well, be totally honest and ask yourself if you're interceding for a friend because you'll get a benefit,  think if you're lead by emotions and not the holy spirit, or think if you're praying for someone just because you like that person. If you are lead by the emotions and not God's will and the holy spirit , then you'll not be truly interceding for others.
Don't let our self-centered nature win the battle, don't let you self-centered nature stand between you, God and the holy spirit. If you're fighting with this keep on praying, keep reading and applying God's word and let him take the control of your life.  

PS:  If you find you've been doing wrong, like I did too: don't feel like you're gonna go to hell just because of this. Ask for forgivennes to our heavenly Father, ask him for help, and give him everything you have (maybe you'll only find weakness), and finally, ask for daily focus.


Stop, change and continue
