Prayer may be the most heavily used word in the Christian lexicon, but it also may be the most misunderstood, taken-for-granted, confusing part of our faith.
We all need a clear understanding of prayer; what to pray for, how to pray, and how to lead others in prayer. Even more, we need to learn how to listen to God. We talk, talk, talk to God, and never give Him a chance to speak to us.
Prayer is one of the greatest gifts our Heavenly Father has given us. May your vision be enlarged for how God can use your life to make “His Kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven.” Amen!
