Always keep on praying…1 Thessalonians 5:17 TLB

If we truly believe He is with us, every moment of closeness with God will guide us to a beautiful prayer of praise…

There are no limitations of when we’re allowed to pray. God hears our prayers and knows our requests before we ask. Prayer is our expression of fellowship with Him. It brings us peace and allows us to remain faithful. 

God responds to the prayers of His children. He humbles us, so we can receive what He provides. As we ready our hearts to welcome His presence, we learn to seek Him and PRAY.
Prayer should begin by praising God for who He is…"Dear Heavenly Father, you are mighty, holy and true." God is pleased when we come before Him with a grateful heart. "Thank you, Lord! "

Prayer allows us to present our requests. “Lord, fill my heart with peace, and help me find rest in you". It allows us to ask for forgiveness. "Forgive my sin. Help me surrender what causes me to doubt Your faithfulness.”

Prayer addresses our needs and the needs of others…"Lord, watch over me and strengthen me with the power of Your awesome love. Guide me, as I find purpose in your will. Be with those who need to be reminded of the power of Your strength. And, fill them with the bounty of Your love.” 

As we spend time with God, He opens our hearts to reveal the power of His plan. As we pray, He hears our words before they’re spoken. He recognizes the longing of our hearts and reminds us He is closer than we think.
If we commune with God, He will respond with guidance, assurance, strength, and hope for what’s to come. He will fill us with His presence of peace and answer our prayers in the timing of His will. Aren’t we lucky to have a Father who loves us enough to handle the happenings of our days? He WILL hear our prayers and He WILL respond. 

Dear God, Thank you for waking us to all You provide. Fill us with peace and help us find strength in You. Forgive us when we sin and forget who’s in charge of ALL things. Fill us with the power of Your greatness. We will put our TRUST in You and find hope in the gift of Your amazing grace. And, we will remember why we must humble our hearts and ALWAYS take time to pray...Amen
