Prayer: Prayer 101

 Prayer: Prayer 101 by ric gustafson


Prayer begins with God. God is sovereign, all powerful, all present and all knowing. We pursue God because that is in us. Prayer is our natural response. First we must have a relationship with God. A conversation follows a relationship. God calls us to a relationship with him and prayer. 
No matter how good or bad our life is right now, God simply asks us to believe. Satan will always be lurking around trying to trip us up in our prayer life. 
We must come to prayer in helplessness. That is the indication of a praying heart. In helpless prayer, we make no demands. Demands to God in prayer are inappropriate. Helpless prayer is to be humble and broken before God. 
Do you know what makes God happy?. It is when we pray to him and simply say God I love you.
God loves us his children more than anything else.
