Just Pray

* Prayer is the greatest, simplest privilege of our lives as believers.

*The enemy has told us all kinds of lies about prayer, but the truth is that prayer is as easy and natural as breathing.

*Prayer does not have to be long in order to be powerful.  In fact, some of the most powerful prayers we can pray are concise and to-the-point.

*Prayer does not have to be complicated.  It only needs to come from the heart and it does not require us  to assume a certain position or adhere to certain "rules".

*Prayer does not have to be eloquent.  We can communicate with God the same way we talk to other people.

*We do not have to be perfect to pray or for God to hear our prayers.

*Prayer is the easiest and best way to deal with any situation.  We need to pray before we do anything else in response to the things that happen in our lives.

("The Power of Simple Prayer" by Joyce Meyer)

  1. Amen! Prayer is the most important thing we can do. I would rather walk with God in the dark than go alone in the light. Have a good week! Sharon
