Mark 11:24 - Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. Christian author and theologian Timothy Keller once said this: “The only person who dares wake up a king at 3:00 AM for a glass of water is a child. We have that kind of access.” If I can sum up the importance of prayer into one big reason, it would be this: prayers help us grow closer to God. When we pray, we are welcoming God to be in every part of our lives. The more you spend time talking and listening to God through prayer, the more we draw closer to Him and know more of Him. And thus, God naturally draws close to us too. You might like to set up a special place in which you pray regularly. You might also place an open Bible, a cross, a candle, an icon or another picture, to give the time and space special significance.

When we aren’t praying, we’re like cub Simba. The enemy is not threatened by us, on our own. But when we pray and we call on our heavenly Father, and we are continually connected to Him in prayer, we have accessed the authority and power and love of the King and not even the enemy will come against that.

Fasting and Prayer

What about the middle aged and elderly couples who no longer desire or are able to be at the ready for sex on demand at all times? What about marriages where one person is disabled? I am disabled and so could not be the perfect wife (shame on me!). However, God has used this challenge to make my husband into a more gentle, patient, and less selfish person. And his patience with me has helped me to be grateful to him, and makes me love him more. As children of God, we have access to God. We can talk to Him, we can ask Him for what we need, we can hear from Him, all through prayer. All upcoming public events are going ahead as planned and you can find more information on our events blog By praying, we surrender to God’s will and purpose. We can seek forgiveness and cleansing from our sins. And lastly, we can ask for guidance and direction. In her story, her deep longing for a child drove her to despair. She cried out to God in prayer to bless her, and He did.

5 Fasting Prayers to Guide Your Heart

The above quote is in the context of a problem that's been worked through and changed, which is great, but then the below comment comes which is written in present tense, and you wonder if maybe her husband is still verbally abusive? Kneeling is the traditional posture for penitence and standing for praise, but you can pray anywhere - walking, standing, sitting, whatever feels comfortable. Structure I know this book is about praying, and so all the focus is on that. Which is great. But prayer isn't the only tool, and there seems to be an assumption in a lot of her example stories that husbands don't respond well to any bit of loving criticism or request (maybe due to the above anger issues of her own husband that's what she sees as the norm?) If God is close to us, what else do we have to fear? What else do we have to achieve? Nothing! Just like Paul, we can live fearlessly and courageously because we know that our mighty God is for and with us.
