How to Pray EffectivelySample

Pray with Purpose
Paul’s prayers weren’t just a list of requests—they were filled with purpose. In Ephesians, he prays that believers would “know the hope to which He has called you.” His prayers go beyond needs, seeking a deeper understanding of God’s plans. Effective prayer starts with a clear purpose, aiming to align our hearts with God’s will, not just our desires.
Reflective Question: What purpose guides your prayers today? Ask God to reveal His purpose to you as you pray.
