Secrets of Prayer
Prayer is an act of communication between a person and God; it is talking to God heart to heart. It is through prayer that man opens the door to let God move and take control of your life. Prayer is also an act of worship to God. The most important purpose of prayer is to adore Him in his unbounded greatness and thank Him for the graces he bestowed upon you. The most usual intention why you pray is to ask for something you desire or need; another is to beg for forgiveness for the sins you committed. Prayer is a powerful tool that could lead to the transformation of ones life to a more useful one.
There are a lot of blessings that you can acquire through prayer not only for your own sake but also for your loved ones and the people whom you prayed for. It is stated in the Bible that prayer brings healing, forgiveness, wisdom, courage, direction, salvation, and even develop your relationship with God. The story of a woman who had completely surpassed her social, family and personal life problems and the story of two missionaries who were saved from the attack of cobra are some of the cases that prayer really has power.
Prayer is not just an ordinary act; it proves that the things that seem impossible happen; the things that people think you cannot achieve, you attain. It only depends on how you believe in the power of prayer.
It does not mean that all you ask for will be granted. God has a purpose why he gives these kinds of responses. You must know how to do your part. God is merciful but the outcome depends on how you work for what you asked, how you exert effort, or how you aspire for something.
Through prayers, God hears more than you say, He answers more than you ask, He gives more than you desire. All He needs is your heart and time. Do not lose hope, have faith and work for it. Give your best in everything you do. God is always willing to listen and to help you. Claim the blessings of prayer; believe that there is power, for with God, all things are possible!
