Prayer is God’s appointed way to receive from God what
we need. The main reason why we lack God’s complete provision is the neglect of
prayer. The believers in the Bible
regarded prayer as the most important activity of their lives. Give a prominent
place to prayer during your Quiet Times.
Prayer occupied a very prominent place and played a
very important role in the earthly life of our Lord, Jesus Christ. Follow his
example. Praying is now the most important part of the ministry of our risen
Lord in heaven. Ask Jesus to pray for you.
Prayer is the means that God has appointed for us to
receive mercy, and obtaining grace to help us in time of need. Remember to ask
for mercy – “In your mercy, Lord, hear my prayer.”
Prayer in the Name of Jesus Christ is the way he has
appointed for his disciples to obtain fullness of joy.
Prayer is the means that God has appointed that we may
receive freedom from anxiety and the peace of God, which passes all
understanding. Just tell him what scares
you, makes you anxious and is the challenge you face. Prayer is the means that
Christ has appointed whereby we will not be overcome by the cares of this
life. Tell God about your worries and
concerns.
Prayer promotes our spiritual growth. It is fellowship with God. Also share with
God what makes you happy and excited – thanking him for it. Prayer brings power
into our work for him. Ask for the
guidance and the power of the Holy Spirit. Prayer benefits the needs of
others. Name the needs of those whose
troubles and challenges are on your heart.
Prayer brings blessings to the church. Pray for the congregation, the current agenda
points you are aware of, the minister, the elders, all the leaders, members who
asked for prayer - by name, for the children and youth ministries and for the
outreach where our church is involved.
