No Other Rock

When he came down from the mount, Moses wist not that his face shone . . . ~ Exodus 34:29

Baxter continues to focus on the transfiguring power of prayer with today’s devotion. In it, he specifically discusses the way it transforms our character.

How so?

Have you ever had someone tell you that you act different when you are around certain individuals? I have. And, for the most part, I find that to be true. It’s a simple fact that if you spend enough time in the company of others, you will think and act similar to them.

Given this truism, which Baxter references as intergrade, we can see how the engagement of consistent and thoughtful prayer can transform our character. Spend enough time around God, and you’ll be more like Him if you open your heart to it.

Today, my prayer for you and I is that we will seek a higher level of prayer so we can more clearly and fully see and be open to the transfiguring power of prayer.
