I always try to start out with humblness. Note, I said try. Like all sinners I fail, so take that in mind when I explain how I pray. The next thing is I always ask that my prayers be in his will. I am not God, I can not know exactly what is best for me, only he knows. I remember a few years ago that was a hard thing to do. It was scary submitting to something that I thought I might not want. I have learned though that I can expect the unexpected from God. Sometimes his answers are quick, though I have found that a rare occurrence for me personally. Of course, sometimes his answers are slow. He is developing in me a gigantic pause button, to see and test my faith in him. I will say I have had a unique experience just lately this past Sun. I had a direct question about an issue, and God answered in Sunday School in verbatim the answer to my question that I originally thought was biblicaly sound. Yes, I am still in awe of God. It took my breath, and it made me realize again the pure power of God. I stand amazed. Tina2 Right, The Bible says "Humble yourself in the sight of the Lord and He will lift you up.

Well said Paul. We don't need long words or complicated formulas. All we need to pray is what is on our heart and that HIS will be done , not ours. We can pray wherever we are , how amazing is that ? God Bless you Paul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Joanna1984 Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 You need to talk to Him like you would a best friend. Even though you may not feel Him He is and will wait until your ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I can remind myself of what I prayed for and look at the list as God answers each one. I can pray out loud but I get shy when I'm in front of people. I like to usually keep it between me and God. And I do enjoy praying with Dan when I get the chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On some things it's not God's time. On some things the answer is "no". On some things God wants you to pray more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have noticed that its in some of my most simplest prayers to Him that His answers and deliverance have come. God knows what we need even before we ask. He is just waiting for us to draw near to Him. God can do what men can't He gives, heals and delivers . Amen! Praise be to God. Proverbs 3: 5,6 Trust in the Lord with ALL your heart, And lean not upon your own understanding; In ALL your ways Acknowledge Him And He shall direct your path. Romans 8:28 And we know that ALL things work together for good To those who love God, And to those who are called according to His purpose. In Him, its going to be O.K. Things will find a way of working themselves out. A sister in Christ Jesus, our Lord and Savior, the only begotten Son of God.
