Why Prayer is My Only Option, Part 2

By Joseph Taylor | Published: April 26, 2008

I’m splitting this up into 3 parts, simply to make it shorter

Part 1     |     Part 2     |     Part 3

After the prayer meeting (see Part 1) I was about to walk over to the onething office for me Service hours when one of the IHOP-KC grabbed me and asked to have a conversation. The gist of the dialogue was:

  • The day of people doing multiple things (having multiple roles) at IHOP is ending, not necessarily today, but it is ending.
  • You (Joseph) have a ton of options in front of you right now. Some options open up huge doors of ministry, others are more hidden
  • A bunch of other fun stuff but I won’t share that part
  • I (leader) encourage you (Joseph) to think about throwing yourself into the Prayer Room.

So here is the second time in one day that I get hit with this idea of laying down all of my aspirations to be a speaker and public leader in the young adult and campus prayer movement across the nation and instead go deep in prayer.

I think about the experience in the prayer room moments before where I realized how young I am. Now it hits me even more; I have plenty of time, plenty of years to do the public preaching thing. What if I set that aside for a few years and really seek the Lord in prayer?
