Next Steps in Following Jesus: Prayer

Are you a person of prayer? Having a vital prayer life is a critical part of following Jesus. Yet you may feel you don’t pray enough and your prayers may often be mechanical and superficial. 

In Matthew 6:7-14, Jesus gives us a model to help us know how to pray. This is a prayer that honors God. Pray for His will to be done. Pray for specific things, for provision. Pray for protection from Satan and temptation.

Prayer is an incredible privilege. Through your faith in Jesus Christ, God is your heavenly Father. This intimate loving relationship gives us a sense of security and boldness that comes from knowing that He is always there listening. He will never reject you. You are forever accepted.

“Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need” (Hebrews 4:16).
