Need for Prayer

 


    Prayer is helpful.  When life feels wrong you can pray and feel better. The circumstances don't necessarily change right away, but you may have found peace.  Prayer can lead to healing.  It can change hearts and attitudes.  It can make your feel protected.  Prayer is the key to a relationship with the Living God.
    When you pray, ask God to answer your prayers in a way that you know it came from Him.  You can ask for what may seem impossible.  It doesn't mean He will always give us what we want, but it is nice to have the freedom.  He will answer in a way that will supply the need.  He gives us forgiveness.  
    Prayer opens our eyes to His mercy on a daily basis.  It can help keep our priorities in check to know that God loves us on a personal level.  He loves us enough to listen to every single prayer.  This should give us an attitude of worship and desire to glorify His name.  
    When you pray, ask that God teach you His ways.  That is how you will walk in truth without having a divided heart caused by fear.  The more you know about God the more you appreciate Him.  You fear damnation, not who God is.  It is a fear driven by respect, not terror.  God's truth opens your eyes to see the world for what it is and enables compassion and grace.  
    This is how you get to experience God's goodness and comfort.  Never stop praying.  God is loyal, faithful, and consistent.  We need to try to be the same because He is fully alert to listen to all of our prayers.
