Have you ever stopped to examine what your prayers might sound like to God? Are they heartfelt? Are they full of fluff and church-y words? In the verse just before the Lord's Prayer, Jesus warned us against reciting vain words when talking to the Father but I fear for most of us that is exactly what the Lord's Prayer has become, vain thinkless recitation. In this episode you will hear what God has revealed to me about how He wants us to chat with Him in prayer and it might not be what you expect to hear. "Restraining prayer, we cease to fight, Prayer makes the Christian's armour bright; And satan trembles when he sees The weakest saint upon his knees.” William Cowper "Unanswered yet? Nay, do not say, ungranted, Perhaps your part is not yet fully done. The work began when first your prayer was offered, And God will finish what He has begun. If you will keep the incense burning there, You shall have your desire- Sometime, somewhere!” Ophelia R. Browning
