How To Pray

Sometimes it's hard to settle the thoughts roaming my mind when it's time to pray. I've found that quoting the following scripture removes those thoughts and puts me in the presence of God. I recall glorious deliverences every time.

Psalm 18:2 The LORD is [You are] my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.

Visualize Jesus as your own personal High Priest, listening intensely as He has promised. Then boldly approach the throne of grace in prayer.

You should pray for the will of God in your life, for spiritual maturity, for others, for wisdom, for a passion for the things of God, and for courage and boldness to witness.

Unconfessed sin or selfish desires will choke off the purpose and power of prayer.

Pray humbly every day. It changes things.
