Title: Pray to your Father (Matthew 6:6)
Pray to your Father (Matthew 6:6)
------------------------------------------------------------ ---------- ---------------------
For those who believe in Jesus, prayer is really important. Because prayer is like breathing, you can only live if you pray, and if you pray, you can get everything.
So we want to pray. But how do we pray well?
1. A good prayer
First, when we pray, we pray knowing that we are in the presence of God.
Since you are praying before the living God, you should not think about the people around you or yourself.
That's why Jesus also said to go into your closet when you pray.
Second, it is prayer to know exactly who God is.
It is knowing that the God who has the power to create the heavens and the earth and lead them as he pleases is his Father. Knowing that Heavenly Father is the One who knows everything about me, takes care of everything I do, and knows what I need.
It is knowing that Heavenly Father has guided me so far and will continue to guide me step by step with love.
Third, do not try to persuade God to accept what I want, but to think about what God means to me, who knows everything about me and wants me to be well.
2. Wrong prayer
First, it is a prayer that takes precedence over my thoughts about God who receives prayers and that I only pursue my greed.
Second, it is a prayer that is decorated well in order to look good to the person next to you.
Third, like the Pharisees, it is a prayer that is habitually and haphazardly mumbled without thinking.
In conclusion, our prayer life is an important thing that will continue until we go to heaven. I hope to become a child who can pray well, to please God and to receive and enjoy everything that he asks for.
