I love talking about prayer because I think we often overlook how powerful this gift is that God has given us. I created a video with 3 important points…and I even opened up and shared a personal struggle.
Have you ever wondered how to pray? Well, you are not alone. Even Jesus’ disciples asked Him to teach them how to pray. The good news is that Jesus answered them! In the video below I share His answer with you and give some tips on praying.
Also, in my video, I mention a resource called Praying Tacos. I really created this for my kids…but it comes in handy for adults as well (I even use this myself sometimes). If you’d like to use it to help you pray, you can access it here.
Who & What does the Bible say we should pray for? Specifically, the New Testament? Here are seven precise directions:
- Your enemies – Matthew 5:44
- The sick – James 5:13-16
- For more disciples – Matthew 9:36-38
- For safety during the tribulation – Matthew 24:19-20
- That you don’t fall into temptation – Matthew 26:41
- That you are worthy to escape the things to come – Luke 21:35-36
- That you are worthy of your calling – 1 Thessalonians 1:11-12
