Philippians 4:6-7
“Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”
Prayer is powerful. It is our main source of communication with God. The best thing about prayer is that we can do it anytime and anywhere because God is omnipresent. He is with us wherever we go. When you pray you can use the model prayer that Jesus gave us in Matthew 6: 9-13, which is below if you want to read it. Each time I pray I make sure to give thanks to God and glorify his name and ask for forgiveness of my sins. What you pray for is completely up to you. I encourage you to be sincere in your prayers and to ask according to Gods will. And trust that he will answer in his own time. Whether his answer is yes, no, not now, or that he has something better, we have to accept what his will is for our lives. We cannot control how soon something will happen or how long it will happen but we can rest in God’s faithfulness. In 1 John 5: 14-15 NKJV he tells us, “Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask , we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him”. So do not give up! Keep on praying so that Gods will can be done. Believe it. Amen.
Matthew 6: 9-13 “In this manner, therefore, pray: Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. Your Kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, As we forgive our debtors. And do not lead us into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.”
