There are moments in a believer's life, one must take time out ones busy schedule to seek the presence of GOD. I should never be too busy to pray to GOD because prayer is my connection and communication to GOD. A believer should seek GOD's presence before entering into ones daily tasks or activities for the day. JESUS is prime example how to start ones day in GOD's presence. When believers seek the presence of GOD in prayer then ones life shall be changed. When believers come together to lift up Holy Hands, shout with praise, cry out in prayers, and thanksgivings with loud voice. The nations shall be heal, restore, and peace shall reign throughout lands.

Father,
the hour has come.
Glorify Your Son
so that the Son may glorify You,
2 for You gave Him authority
over all flesh;[a]
so He may give eternal life
to all You have given Him.
3 This is eternal life:
that they may know You, the only true God,
and the One You have sent—Jesus Christ.
4 I have glorified You on the earth
by completing the work You gave Me to do.
5 Now, Father, glorify Me in Your presence
with that glory I had with You
before the world existed.
I need to stop because the Holy Spirit is revealing TRUTH to me! Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah!!!
