Where and how to pray? The Bible tells us that prayer should be a constant part of our lives, regardless of the circumstances we find ourselves in. Whether we are experiencing moments of joy or going through times of testing and pain, God encourages us to seek Him through prayer. God is always available to talk to, 24/7, and although His answers may not always align with our desires, He never fails to respond. Be sure to pray for others as well as yourself.

Personally, I Have Found Great Peace In Two Particular Places For My Prayers. One Place Is Mc Carthy Park Down By The Lagoon On My Prayer Bench, Where Nature’s Serenity Surrounds Me As I Pour Out My Heart Before God. The Other Is Within The Confines Of My Bathroom At Home; There Each Morning I Spend My Quiet Time With The Lord. Bottom Line… Honestly ~ Anywhere Is A Good Place To Pray!

Places like I have mentioned provide an environment conducive to conversation with God – easy to talk and listen to without distractions. During these intimate moments with Him, I inquire about His will concerning whatever situation I am presently facing and humbly ask for His guidance and assistance. Then comes a moment of profound connection as I sit back attentively and allow myself to hear His voice amidst the stillness around me. Among all the prayers that cross my lips or thoughts, one stands out as particularly impactful: “God, what do you want me to do?” This simple yet powerful plea consistently realigns me with God’s purpose for my life; it deepens our bond further. When we immerse ourselves enough in knowing God’s word, we can boldly pray it back. He loves us and wants the best for us in our lives. ~ Bill Greguska

Psalm 86:6 Hear my prayer, Lord; listen to my cry for mercy.

Now I encourage you to make your list of prayers to God. Even if you have ten things you want God to help you with, that is a great start! Keeping a journal can be very helpful in recording your prayers and communicating with God.

How To Pray ~ And Why It Is So Important To Pray?

If you have never prayed before, the best way to describe prayer is like talking to someone you can not see as someone on a cell phone. The purpose of prayer is to grow a relationship between you and God. It is your way of talking to God and asking for help in certain areas of your life, such as relationships, finances, health, wisdom, and comfort, to name a few ways. I will repeat that before one starts to pray. It is wise to praise God and thank Him for what He has done for you recently. After praying to God, make sure you take a few moments to understand what God is trying to teach you.
Anyone who believes God hears and answers prayers can learn to pray with minimal effort. Prayer is not meant to be something so very complicated that only a few select people can do it. Still, rather it is intended for everyone to be able to communicate with our heavenly Father. When you pray, do not only ask God to do things for you (God is not a magic genie). But when you pray, thank God for what He has already done for you and answered prayers in the past.  Try to pray and listen to God speak to you in His quiet voice with the Holy Spirit’s gentle nudges.
