Prayerlessness
When you least feel like praying is the exact moment you need to. In other words, when you don’t feel like praying anymore, you are drifting further and further from God. God hasn’t moved; we have! We need to move back toward God, but the quickest way to get back to Him is on our knees. Pray when you don’t feel like it because that’s a signal you need to.
Famine of the Word
The Prophet Amos wrote about a famine of the Word: “’Behold, the days are coming,’ declares the Lord GOD, ‘when I will send a famine on the land— not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD’” (Amos 8:11). That famine has hit our country and the world, but please don’t let it hit you. When you drift away from the Bread of Life, which is the Living Word of God, then you are losing your greatest source of God’s nourishment. When you stop reading the Bible, stop and read it. At the time you feel least like reading the Bible is the exact time you need to!
