What is prayer? Maybe you’ve wondered this yourself before. Is it some spooky spell, or a crazy formula with big words that you have to say just right? No, prayer is none of those things. Most simply put, prayer is a conversation with God. Have you ever wanted to get to know someone better? Of course you have; we have all had that moment in our life where we wanted to get to know someone better. In order to get to know a person better you have to do something... you have to do this thing called TALKING. Now I know that’s a hard concept for some of you to grasp because all you do is text and Snapchat, but in order to really ever get to know someone better, you have to spend some consistent time talking with them. The same is true in our relationship with God! If we are to ever really get to know God, we have to be willing to consistently talk with God. And it’s pretty amazing that the God of the universe, the God that created all things actually wants to talk with us. That’s why we have this thing called prayer. We believe that developing consistency in prayer will truly help you become who God wants you to become and also help you get through anything that you may go through in this life. In the tough moments of life, you always have God to turn to in prayer. It’s also important to know that God wants you to prosper. The bible tells us that God has great plans for your life but for you to truly succeed in what God wants for your life you are going to need prayer along the way. We will never have a growing relationship with God if we don’t talk with God. So maybe you’re new to this and you’re wondering where to start. Let this acronym be a guide and take a moment to PRAY.
