*SCRIPTURES*
Psalm 34:4-5 I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. 5 They looked unto him, and were lightened (radiant) : and their faces were not ashamed.
*REFLECT*
Does it happen to you to talk to someone but looking at anything else but not at him at all ? That is what happens to us while praying.
According to the text we have read today, true and effective prayers are not only when you talk to God but when you talk to God and you look unto Him at the same time.
If you truly talk to God and look unto Him, those two things must absolutely and undeniably happen to you according to today's text,
1. Your heart must be delivered from fears
2. Your face must be radiant, lightened, joyful,...
If those two signs don't happen to you, meaning you are always gloomy, sad, stressed, fearful, bitter, resentful, unsecured, faithless, worried, doubtful,..., please, don't lie to yourself. Your eyes are not on God at all. They are elsewhere.
The question today is ... Do you talk to God only or do you talk to God and look unto God?
*PRAYER POINTS*
1. Pray God with *Psalm 34:4* to deliver you from your fears (fear of tomorrow, fear of the unknown, fear of people's opinion, fear of things out of control ...)
2. Pray and tell God like David in *Psalms 141:8* "My eyes look to you, LORD Almighty..."
3. Pray with *Psalms 55:22* and tell God I cast my burden upon you today.
4. Pray with *Exodus 34:29* and tell God to make his light shine on your face and make it radiant, joyful and brilliant like Moses.
So shall it be
Jesus is Lord
