Prayer is talking to our Father God -
When the Apostles turned to Bro Jesus and said -
“Lord, teach us to pray,” that was a prayer -
The Apostles petitioned Jesus -
for something they were in need of -

Prayer is not only talking to God -
but can also be a remembering of something important -
that God said -
In the above example Jesus said -
“When you pray say this -

Our Father who are in heaven Holy is Your name -
Your kingdom come Your will be done on Earth -
as it is in heaven -
Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us -
our trespasses as we forgive those -
who trespass against us -
Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil -
For Yours is the kingdom, the power -
and the Glory forever -
God Bless us -
Amen."

Some complain that these words are not allowed to be said -
over and over but that is not true -
Jesus said that if you multiply your words -
“on the street corner” simply to be heard then your prayer -
will not be heard -
"But if you go to your room and close your door" -
and say these words as a petition or meditation -
so as to make them a request that is part of your heart -
and soul, then our Father God shall surely hear you -

Some people like to completely empty themselves of -
every thought as a prayer -
They seek to become completely blank -
It is said that when you empty yourself of you -
then there is where you will find Bro Jesus -
I have frequently found this to be true as part of my prayer -
Others call this the “listening” part of their prayer time -

Some are given the gift of tongues -
Tongues can come in the human variety -
if God wills -
one may speak out in an angelic tongue -
Both will build up your spirit –
as the other forms of prayer –
to better image and serve like our Father God -

Some Christians like to sing as part of their prayer -
Whether it be a published song or one you just made up
it is all good to God -

Prayer is heard by our Father God -
when it comes from a sincere heart -
The kind of prayer you like to engage in -
is not as important as your disposition of heart -
while you pray -
In these difficult times the message is
“Pray, Pray, Pray.”

One way I like to pray at the end -
of a long, hard day is to comfotably relax -
say these words over and over -
"Glory be to the Father, and to Christ -
and to the Holy Spirit -
Amen."

When we pray these words we like to picture -
the infinite mercy of God flowing over planet Earth -
leading billions of people to conversion and salvation -
Like a golf ball sitting at the bottom of a lake or
a submarine deep in ocean's blue we pray-believe-picture -
the mercy of God surrounding the whole world with all -
of its people leading to an abundant harvest of souls -
to the greater Glory of God -
Like a spec of dust floating in the middle of a huge room -
so our tiny planet exists in an enormous universe -
The Holy Scriptures say that -
"God fills the universe in all of its parts."
With this being true, God is immense compared to us -
our history, and all that we have done -
Surely, the infinite mercy of God is available to all -
who believe in it -
Can you pray-picture-believe that God will -
have mercy on billions of souls -
Will you pray and believe with me -
If two or more agree on Earth regarding anything -
it shall happen -
Lord Jesus, we agree with all of our brothers and sisters -
who choose to believe with us that God our Father -
is saving billions of people through You -
His Son -
Praise the Lord as we see and believe it happening -
