“And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.”
Ephesians 6:18
For a Christian, prayer is essential. There is nothing more important in life than to learn how to pray.
Prayer is the most important thing we can learn how to do because that’s how we communicate with God, learn about God, understand God and connect with God.
“Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.”
Romans 12:12
“Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful.”
Colossians 4:2
When we find ourselves in conflict, prayer is not the only thing we can do, but it’s the best thing we can do. In essence, we are seeking God first, going to him, taking our issues to him and we can’t really do that unless we are actually speaking to him.
Prayer also initiates angelic action on our behalf. Scripture talks about spiritual battles taking place in the heavenly realms and that’s why I believe the minute we pray, God begins to take action.
“The moment you began praying a command was given. I am here to tell you what it was, for God loves you very much.”
Daniel 9:23
“When you call me and come and pray to me, I will listen to you.”
Jeremiah 29:12
Pray without ceasing!
