I don't know how to pray. What can I do?
- Follow those who have gone before you
- Jesus showed how in Matthew 6
- Read through the Gospels to see how Jesus prayed. Do what Jesus did
- Read through Acts to see how the disciples prayed. Do what they did
Nothing ever happens when I pray. What can I do?
- Learn to pray according to God's will by reading the Word to see His will. You can know God's will by looking at Jesus.
- Learn the difference between asking and commanding prayer. There's a difference.
- Jesus is the model
One model of prayer is The ACTS Prayer
- Adoration --> Speak/Sing praise the Lord.
- Confession --> Confess your sins and Confess who you are in Christ
- Thanksgiving --> Thank God for what He's already done, and about to do.
- Supplication -> Ask God for what you need
Learn to sit and wait on the Lord.
So many times we ask God for answers to the things in life, but then we don't wait to hear Him. We don't engage in conversation. Learn to wait, listen, and engage with the Lord.
He will speak to you. His sheep hear His voice.
Time to Practice
Now it's time for practice. The Lord wants to speak to you. Go find some time to spend with Him. He's worth it.
