Prayer

Prayer

            We all need prayer and all need to pray. Jesus taught that our prayers are not about length or performance, but about honesty, humility, and our deep needs such as forgiveness, provision and protection. As believers’ prayer should be the safest of all places in our lives because we can share our hearts openly with God and be the most vulnerable. There is nothing we need to hide from God because 1) He already knows our needs before we ask Him, and 2) He loves us unconditionally. Unconditional love can only come from God because He is the only One who knows all our conditions. He invites us to share our hearts with Him because He loves to hear from His children. No, we aren’t informing God of anything when we pray, but rather we should be enjoying Him which is where true happiness is. This is why He wants us to have fellowship with Him in our prayers. My encouragement today is quit worrying about how well you pray, or if you sound as good as the next person praying, and just pray openly, honestly, and with humility. Open your heart to the Lord, and He will meet you wherever you are.

    Please pray for Aubrey King- having tonsils out on the 12th so pray for little pain and quick recovery + 3 unspoken prayers.

    From Anita Teel: Prayer needed for my father, his carotid artery is 75% blocked and his cancer isn’t better. Nothing they can do . No surgery. He is 96. God and prayer will lift him up!

    I need prayer. Will you please pray for God to convict Hamilton and to bring him to repent and to see his sins and abuse against me. Please pray for emotional mental and financial restoration and healing over me. Thank you
