Prayer is not just a formal act, but a personal conversation with God that can bring comfort and relief in our times of need. We can bring our burdens to God through prayer. I often find relief in carrying my worries and concerns to Him. Prayer is constant communication with God throughout our daily lives.
Recently, I was convicted about prayer or rather the lack of it in my life. Prayer is a privilege we have as believers. Prayer is communion with God, the Creator of the universe and all that is in it. It is an invitation to a better relationship with Him.
Jesus gave us a pattern for prayer in Matthew chapter 6. Prayer is communication with God, not for pleasing people. Prayer is also not about the particular words we use, but about our hearts. We don’t have to have eloquent prayers or have a degree in theology to pray to God. We can have confidence in our earnest prayers because God knows what we need before we even ask Him.
As children of God, Christians have a special relationship with God. It’s not that God doesn’t hear everyone’s prayers - He does. Through our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ as our personal savior, we have intimate access to the Father.
Prayer impacts our lives so much that I believe it’s important to practice the presence of God. Constant prayer fosters our intimate relationship with Him. We should prioritize prayer, seeking God's help in all aspects of our lives and pray throughout each day, recognizing God's presence and guidance. (1 Thessalonians 5:16-2
We have the privilege of carrying everything to God in prayer. Philippians 4:6-7 encourages us to pray about everything and seek God's peace. In fact, when we start to worry about anything, that should be our cue to pray.
Bringing our burdens to God doesn’t mean that He will answer our prayers the way we want. God can say "yes," "no," or "wait" to our prayers. Ultimately, God provides the relief and care that He knows we need. It is a relief to know that I can give my concerns to God, the only One who is able to carry the weight of all of my burdens and yours too.
