Prayer

Prayer:

We believe that God can help us to overcome our hunger. But, that does not stop us from having food. Prayer is asking God's will for our life, doing according to his will. In the process we cannot and will not be given something which we can get it our self. But, we should not be overwhelmed by the things that God can do in prayer. Elijah was fed by a crow, The whole Isralites were fed by the manna. Jesus says he is the manna from the heaven for us today. He is the bread of life, eat him means to do as according to his will, as Jesus says, my food is to do the will of my father.


Prayer should be like breathing:
Righteousness - Hunger and thirst for it...

Man Shall not live by bread alone.

Matthew 4:4 (NASB)

But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.’”


Why some prayers are not answered?
Because of Faith
Because of Sin
Because of wrong motives


James 4:3 (NASB)

You ask and do not receive, because you ask [a]with wrong motives, so that you may spend it [b]on your pleasures.


Pray like Jesus
Early Morning - Mark 1:35
In Solitude - 
In Faith -
Asking according to the will of the Father - Prayer at the garden of Gethsemane.
