Why Pray?
Why pray?
In the Bible you will find kings, prophets, and ordinary people like you and I who avoided disaster by praying to God. One prayed to stop the sun, one prayed and saved a whole city, and one prayed which resulted in healing and fifteen years added to his life. These people prayed intensely to the God who answers prayer.
When you pray, God listens to your cries. As you pray you are affirming the existence of God in your life. You are building your faith as you see God’s hand do His mighty work on your behalf just because you asked.
“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened” (Matthew 7:7-8).
