Genesis 32:9-12, James 1:5-8,
When You go to any prayer house or a church you will discover that Prayer is one of the integral part of our daily christian life, In our daily devotions prayer is one big important part.
Jesus requires us to Watch and Pray(Matthew 26:41, mark 14:38, luke 21:36)
Prayer is what keeps us together with God, Prayer is fellowshiping with God,
Prayer is communing with God
Prayer is depending on God
Prayer is the Intercourse of the soul with God, not in contemplation or meditations but in direct address to Him(God).
Prayer may be oral or mental, Ocasional or constant, Ejaculatory or Formal
Prayer is beseeching the Lord(exo 32:11)
Prayer is pouring out the soul before the Lord(1Samuel 1:15)
Prayer is seeking God and making suplications(Job:8-5)
Prayer is drawing near to God(Ps73:28).
But here is the truth it is not all prayers prayed that receives answer because before a prayer will be answered it must first be (heared, acceptable and Consistent to God).
