Separate Yourself To Seek God.
Memory Verse: Is. 40:29
“He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.”
Bible Reading: I Kings 19:4
“4 But he himself went a day’s journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a broom tree….”
We discuss about prayer as another way to overcome Faintness. During faintness, one need to separate him/her self from others and from every situation leading to faintness to pray effectively. Jezebel was the cause of faintness for Elijah, all he needed to do was to be away from Jezebel first. He distanced himself to a far place and also separated himself from His servant. Jesus Christ our lord did the same. In Matthew 26:36,
“36 Then Jesus came with them to a place called Gethsemane, and said to the disciples, “SIT HERE WHILE I GO AND PRAY OVER THERE.”
After separating from the twelve, he also separated from the three. We need to separate ourselves from our close one, relatives, even spouse to seek the face of God personally in order to hear His leading. Hannah separated from her household to speak with God at Shiloh. Who do you need to be separated from in order to speak with your maker? What is that situation bringing faintness? Separate yourself from it and seek God for renewal of strength. God wants to direct us personally, find a separate place to hear Him.
