True prayer is neither a mere mental exercise nor a vocal performance. It is far deeper than that - it is spiritual transaction with the Creator of Heaven and Earth. Charles Spurgeon
Prayer is as natural an expression of faith as breathing is of life. Jonathan Edwards
1. Expectations of Prayer.
When you pray...
Matthew 6:5, 6, 7
Matthew 6:5, 6, 7
2. When You Pray - Do Not Be Like Hypocrites.
“And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward.''
3. When You Pray - Speak to Your Heavenly Father.
But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.
4. When You Pray - Have a Conversation.
And when you pray, do not use vain repetitions as the heathen do. For they think that they will be heard for their many words.
