"When you pray, go away by yourself, shut the door behind you. and pray to your Father in private. Then your Father, Who sees everything, will reward you"-Matthew 6:6 (NLT).
Jesus is teaching, in today's Scripture, that there is something truly intimate about praying privately. Jesus set the example by withdrawing, by Himself, to pray (Luke 5:16). We should yearn to pour our heart out to our All Mighty Jehovah. He Who sees will reward you: Jehovah-Jireh will provide; Jehovah-Shalom will send peace; Jehovah-Tsidkenu will justify; Jehovah-Shammah will be forever near; Jehovah-Nissi will conquer every foe (C. Spurgeon). Those private precious moments with Jehovah are confidential with He who is Providential.
