Prayer Works

Want to have every prayer answered? I am going to give you the key to have that occur. I John 5:14-15 "NOW THIS IS THE CONFIDENCE WE HAVE IN HIM, THAT IF WE ASK ANYTHING ACCORDING TO HIS WILL, HE HEARS US. AND IF WE KNOW THAT HE HEARS US, WHATEVER WE ASK, WE KNOW THAT WE HAVE THE PETITIONS THAT WE HAVE ASKED OF HIM." The key is to find out what His will is before we pray. I have to remind myself that His will is better than my will. My mind battles with God's timing, God's methods, God's concern. Is that as amazing to you as it is to me? God who spoke and the entire universe came into being without lifting a finger would ever need to explain anything to me. God spoke to Job in chapter 38, and ask him if he (Job) could answer any of God's questions about where the foundations of the earth were and what they were attached to. The Lord's prayer is a guide that is useful in learning to pray.
Our Father who art in Heaven hallowed be Thy Name -- begin your prayer time with worship
Your kingdom come your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven -- His will not ours
Give us this day our daily bread -- present your daily petitions to Him
Forgive us our debts as we forgive others - repentance
Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil -- Follow His leadership
Yours is the kingdom and glory -- end prayer with worship

God is for us not against us, trust Him with all of your heart and watch as He proves to be right every time!
