Prayer is general conversation, and request unto/with God. This is one of the best gifts that our LORD has bestowed on us. The fact that He hears us and even responds to our prayers blows my mind.

Direction

Guidance can be found when we seek the LORD in prayer. It is recognizing  that I may not know the answer, but I can go to Him who Has the answers. Prayer is letting go of your own solution of fixing something and allowing God freedom to work on your behalf however He sees fit.

Realization

A prayer that is answered does not always come with an answer or the result may not look like it is in your favor. Relax, God knows best. Trust Him, who knows during those crucial moments in life, an open door may just be a prayer away. Maybe, during this time it is not so much of your receiving anything but to just be in His presence. Maybe, all you need is just a reminder that He Hears You. That He loves you. Let this truth sink into your heart.

Freedom 

Burdens are relieved when we pray. Prayer is a way of casting all our cares unto the LORD. It allows you to be what He Has created you to be. A being made in His image. Created for His glory. One that is dependent on Him alone. Human. Praying to Him is one way of realizing this truth. 

Thanksgiving 

We say thank you to those who have done something on our behalf. Prayer allows us to express our gratitude towards God. We all have so much to be thankful for. Just the fact that we have breath in our body calls for gratitude. If you are reading this right now and maybe going through something. God is not done with you yet. If you are alive, you still have time. Make the most of what He Has given.

Heart Behind The Message

May 8th 2022-“When God answers our prayers and when He dont. He still deserve our praise. We must bless the LORD at all times! A prayer that is not answered is still an answered prayer. A prayer that is answered but not according to how we envisioned is still a answer. The LORD listens. He is for my good, even if the present circumstance does not look it. We must have His vision. To see that which we do not yet see physically. We must live by faith.”
