Humbly Pray To God!Pray to God!

Please contact us if you have questions or comments or want encouragement.

You can pray to God anywhere, anytime. Prayer is simply talking with God and listening to what He is trying to tell us! Praying to God is a blessing when we have accepted Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. He answers all our payers that we ask Him; sometimes, the answer is Yes, sometimes NO, and sometimes WAIT. This is important to know so we do not think we are wasting our time. 

Many people think that prayer is basically us talking to God, but actually, the bigger purpose is to understand God’s will and carry it out in our life. When I pray, I often ask God, “Lord, what do you want me to do?” Then I think about what His word says in the Bible, and I usually get some prompting about what He wants me to do. ~ Bill Greguska

2 Chronicles 6:40   “Now, my God, may your eyes be open and your ears attentive to the prayers offered in this place.

 

 

 

 

Pray To God Intentionally, And Begin To Hear From God!

 

How To Pray? What Does Prayer Mean In Your Life?

  • Prayer is just a two-way conversation with God, although Christians pray for one another in group settings.
  • It is the most intimate relationship with the Creator of the world that you can have.
  • In prayer, your spirit and the Spirit of God are in connection with one another.
  • Out of this can come instruction, guidance, and suggestions for new areas to focus on in your prayers.

 

 

How Often Do You Pray To God?

Pray to God and read His word every day!

I am sure you pray to God when things are going well and if things are not.

Pray to God, ask him, thank Him, obey Him! Martin Luther was known to have said, “The fewer the words, the better the prayer,” which is an excellent rule of thumb. Prayer is just directly talking with God. Meditation is listening to what God says. Remember that when you pray to God, do so as though He was sitting right next to you; you had a conversation with Him. When we pray to God, it opens our eyes to the things we can not see independently.  Has prayer been a part of your life in the last six months?

Prayer is Like a bridge, and prayer helps you understand things that you might not otherwise on your own! Pray to God each day and grow closer to Him! God will never leave you; it is us that turn our backs on Him. Pray to God daily and throughout your day to gain wisdom and understanding. If not, today can be the day to start a prayer time each morning to start the day off right. ~ Bill Greguska

When And How Can You Talk With God?

We cannot spend all our time on our knees praying, but it is possible to have a sincere, prayerful attitude as you pray throughout your day.  God is always with you, so you can talk to Him 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You do not have to be in a church to talk with God, and you do not have to sound religious to speak to God. You do not have to do anything but tell God what you are going through and ask how He can direct your steps.

Is There A Set Formula About How To Pray?

God wants us to share the concerns, fears, and desires of our hearts. We need to talk to God as though we would speak with a close friend because that is what He wants to be to you and me. 
The Bible mentions a lot about prayer, including Jesus’ words on how to pray, which we refer to as “The Lord’s Prayer” from Matthew 6:9-13. There is a parable that Jesus shared with his disciples, which speaks directly to this topic of prayer.

Pray To God In Hopes To Change His Mind!

 

Organize Your Prayer Time 

  1. The first part of prayer should be praise for our Heavenly Father.
  2. It is followed by intercession for the needs of others.
  3. Then, in prayers of petition, ask for your needs.
  4. All prayer should close with praise and thanksgiving to our Father, who, out of His love for us, provides answers to our prayers. Conclude prayer with some praise, like Jesus ended The Lord’s Prayer, saying, for yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever, Amen” Matthew 6:9-13

Matthew 6:9-13  “This, then, is how you should pray: “‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name,  your kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.’

 

 

When You Pray To God, You Are Pleasing God!

A prayer of hope!

When you pray to God, pray with confidence since God will answer all of our prayers in His time, not ours.

It is impossible to have a relationship with God unless you spend time with Him. One of the best ways to do that is through prayer. There is no one right way to pray to God. Although below are some practical ideas.

  • Sometimes, people fall into the habit of praying when they want or need something from God. The shortest prayer I know is, “Help me, God!” But the Bible says we should “pray without ceasing.” Keep God in your thoughts and prayers, and make requests on behalf of ourselves and others.

 

  • Find a place to pray that you will not be disturbed. Jesus said, “But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father, who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.” 

 

  • Keep it straightforward and real; don’t focus on eloquent words or long prayers. Jesus also said, “And when you pray, do not heap up empty phrases,” thinking God will hear you better if you talk more, “for your Father knows what you need before you ask him” Matthew 6:7-8.

 

  • Say the Lord’s Prayer but say it slowly. The words referred to as the Lord’s Prayer are found in Matthew, chapter 6. If you can recite it by heart without thinking about it, take the time to look at the words with a fresh perspective to see how Jesus is telling you to pray.
