Prayer is so Important!

Prayer: a supplication or expression addressed to God; an earnest request; communication with God

Prayer is an opportunity to spend time with God and to make our requests known unto Him. It's also how we develop a deeper relationship with Him. Prayer is so powerful, just like in the natural, the more you talk to a person, the more you learn about them and the more that it makes the friendship stronger.

Oh, how we need to pray. My friends, we don't know how to go out without God nor do we know how to come back in. However, when we spend time communicating with Him then He is able to teach us how to behave ourselves when we go out and when we come back in. 

I can't tell you just how much prayer can be a powerful weapon in your life. We have the opportunity to offer up our petition before God 24/7. It doesn't matter how big or how small the battle is - He's right there to fight them... all we have to do is call on Him.

Remember, the word tells us that we have not because we ask not (James 4:2). The word also tells us to pray without ceasing (1 Thessalonians 5:17). Another reason that prayer is so important is because it's how we gain power and we learn how to trust in Him. 

God loves to hear from His people - whether we are praying for guidance or simply giving thanks. The act of communicating with Him draws us closer to Him. Just remember to keep it real and be honest - because He already knows the real deal anyway, right? So simply tell God the truth!

With all that said, let the church say Amen and... AMEN!
