Prayer is the most important task in the life of a Christ follower. Prayer builds a solid foundation with Jesus and creates a new lifestyle and priorities.
Prayer is conversation with Jesus without a beginning or an end.
The goal is to develop a personal and symbiotic relationship with Jesus. Prayer is communion with Jesus. Seek his desires for your life and not just asking for things.
Pray in a private place without any motive to promote your prayer life to others.
Do not pray vain repetitions but pray according to the Word and the work of the Cross.
Pray each day for Jesus to cover you with His blood and reveal anything you are doing that is grieving the Holy Spirit.
Listen to the voice of God. He will guide your prayers and show you where change is needed. Prayer transforms your motives and attitudes to make you Christlike.
Ask Jesus to show you the people on His heart and then seek the Holy Spirit for how to pray according to the will of Jesus.
Jesus confronts sin to set people free. As you are praying for someone Jesus may lay the darkness upon you. This is a sign to ask the Holy Spirit how to pray to break the power of the bondage.
God may also choose to break the stronghold through intercession utilizing the Holy Spirit dwelling within you. Intercession is intense and agonizing work for a believer.
Jesus is omniscient and knows every detail of your life from the past into the future. Prayer will provide you with the protection of Jesus against the troubles in the world and the darts of Satan.
Ask and you shall receive but ask for things in accord with God’s desires and prophesies.
