God intends for prayer to be an easy, natural way of staying in touch with Him - like having a conversation with a close friend. But I don't think we see prayer as being that simple. As a matter of fact, I think a lot of us (Christians) have difficulty maintaining a strong, consistent prayer life because we're stuck believing what the enemy has told us. Things like: "God is mad at us. He's not answering our prayers right now", or "we don't pray long enough anyway, so our prayers won't really make a difference".
The truth is, everytime we pray in faith, God answers. He wants our prayer life to be fulfilling, exciting and full of hopeful expectation. You can have great freedom and creativity in your prayer life - but you need to stay focused on God and His promises, not the enemy's lies.
Prayer Builders:
- How often do you pray?
- Do you feel a connection with heaven, in prayer?
