Prayer

IP:

Communication with God...

The bible teaches us that we should always pray, and that we should pray without ceasing.


I believe prayer not only changes things, it changes people as well.


Some people lose heart when they think their prayers aren't answered. Well, things take time, even with God. When you pray for something, often times, it doesn't just affect you. So, since God is all-knowing and all-powerful, he realizes that many peoples lives could be affected by what you pray for. Therefore, God does things in his time when HE realizes they'll be beneficial to those involved. Also, sometimes we pray for things out side of God's will for us. I often pray that God leads me, even as I pray! That way, I know I'll pray for things that God wants to happen in my life.

Prayer isn't only for believers. Non-christians could pray to God in Jesus' name and he'll hear you. THe thing is, he wants to have your heart first. Is it really fair to not live for God, not do ANYTHING for him, and expect him to be your cosmic errand boy?

NO.


Jesus is lord.
