Communication with God


Prayer! Communication with God, the Almighty, the Creator and Savior! Prayer is worship addressed to the Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, and in the power of the Holy Spirit. Prayer is having two-way fellowship with God. It's not just talking TO God, but WITH God.



After Adam and Eve sinned in the garden of Eden, man could no longer stand face to face with God. So God instituted prayer to permit man to communicate with Him. Since then, prayer and meditation according to His Word, have drawn men and women closer to God. He has provided innumerable answers to prayer, some miraculous, and some small. But no request is too small for the Lord to hear.



 


Prayer is one of the hardest things to do. Why? Because we don't always see instant results.  My experience has been that God does indeed answer prayers. Oftentimes my plan is not His plan, and His schedule is not my schedule. Accepting His plan and truly putting Him first is difficult, but when I am able to do so, I find that I am always blessed.






Prayer Is
Prayer brings peace to the restless,
It changes things you know.
The more you pray, the more your faith,
Will grow and grow and grow.
Prayer is sweet communion,
With a friend who really cares.
No matter what the problem is,
No matter when or where.
Prayer is like food to the hungry,
It fills an empty soul.
And then when the prayers are answered,
Your faith in God will grow.
Prayer is the key to Heaven,
Where the angels sing each day.
And when the door is open,
God is listening while we pray.

Poem by © Becca



There is no power on earth, or anywhere,
that can stop Christians,
when we are on our knees in prayer with our Father!




"Therefore confess your sins to one another,
and pray for one another, so that you may be healed.
 The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much."  
James 5:16
