Hosea 4:1-12
Things that stifle our prayer life
1. Indifference (vs. 1)
Honest praying will make you feel unpleasant things.
2. Ignorance (vs. 6)
a conscious choice not to know
(Acts 3:17)
3. Inability (vs. 7)
Our enemy will exploit our weaknesses to keep us from praying and serving.
a. physical weakness
b. emotional weakness
c. spiritual weakness
The key to conquering our inability to pray is to never stop praying.
(Romans 8:26)
4. Interference (vs. 10)
If Satan can't get to us from within, he's going to attack us from without.
If you are too busy to spend time with God, you are too busy.
