How to Pray?
You need not worry, “Will it happen if I pray? How to pray? What words should I use? “Almighty God, I know that you are able to make me live well; You are mighty. My Father , who loves me dearly, please do this thing for me”- Thus telling Him, Let Him know of your needs.
“I’m not yet married. Please send home a suitable life partner for me”.
“I don’t have a job; give me a job.”
“My business is not doing well; O God, increase my business...”
“I’ve lots of debts. Yet, you are the master of both heaven and earth. Silver and gold are yours(Haggai 2:8).So, send me your blessings to remove my debts.”
When you thus pray in the name of Jesus, for all your needs, HE assures, ‘whatever you ask in my name, that I will do’ (John 14:13).
Pray Earnestly :-
In the Bible, we read about a great man of called Elijah, Who knows much for prayer. He was a man of God, who moved the hand of the almighty God through his prayer and performed glorious miracles.
“Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed fervently that it might not rain for three years and six months. And Then he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit.”(James 5:17:18)
The people of the nation were far away from God. In order to manifest the mighty power of God to those people, Elijah prayed, according to the will power of God. When he prayed earnestly that it would not rain, the lord shut the heaven. So there was famine all over the land.
Similarly, with great zeal and earnestness , he again prayed, “Lord send us rain.” Then the heavens opened and there was a heavy downpour. Hearing Elijah pray, the Almighty god worked accordingly. Even today Dear one, you can move the hand of the almighty God, through your prayers. Earnest prayer is powerful. He is God, who hears our prayers.
You too should pray earnestly. Instead of thinking, “ Should I Do This or Do That? Can I get this money and clear my debt?”, kneel down and pray earnestly, Lord help me .. I don’t have any other comfort or hope than you, please do a Miracle. When you thus pray earnestly in the midst of your sufferings , your weakness , your shortcomings and remorse , the lords presence will fill you. He will perfect everything for you (Psalm 138:8).
