Prayer has comforted us in sorrow and will help strengthen us for the journey ahead. George W. Bush
There is no special formula. But there are special prayers. We love what is known as the Lord's Prayer, but we often get tired of the prayers that never change. That is why a real person of prayer understands that is prayer is a conversation between two people that have a relationship. Prayer is...talking to and listening to God.
That simple. That direct.
Once a year our nation has a day set aside as the National Day of Prayer where we are asked to spend time praying for our nation, our leaders and more. Lets spend some time today, even if just a few minutes, talking with and listening to God. It may change someone's life.
What does God say about prayer?
1 Thessalonians 5:17 (nasb) --- pray without ceasing;
James 5:16 (nasb) --- Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much.
2 Chronicles 7:14 (nlt) --- Then if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land.
Psalm 34:4 (nlt) --- I prayed to the Lord, and he answered me.He freed me from all my fears.
Romans 12:12 (nlt) --- Rejoice in our confident hope. Be patient in trouble, and keep on praying.
Make this a day of prayer for you, not just for our nation. We say we believe in prayer. Lets show the world by praying
