5 Crucial Things You Need to Know About Prayer to help you grow closer to God

Prayer doesn’t have to be formal

Prayer doesn’t have to be formal. You don’t need to go before Him with rehearsed prayers.

Simply go to Him and say hello. Ask Him for guidance to handle what’s going on.

Nothing is too big or too small for Him

God cares about everything we do, so we can take all our prayers and requests to the Lord.

“Do not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition (definite requests), with thanksgiving, continue to make your wants known to God.” Philippians 4:6 AMPC

prayer changes your relationship with God

Prayer is more than an action

Prayer is more than just an action. It’s an actual encounter with Good.

Because of God’s great love for us and the work Christ did on the cross, we can now sit in God’s presence.

Pray just as you are

God doesn’t expect us to have everything figured out before going to Him. In fact, He wants to help us through those difficult times in our life. He wants to sit in the pain with us, and give us the comfort and rest we need.

He wants to pour out His wisdom on us and help us grow into the women He created us to be.

So go to Him know, my friend. Don’t wait until you’ve cleaned up your act.

His love for you is unconditional, and He wants to help you through.
