What is Prayer?
“…do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
- Philippians 4:6-7
One of the great gifts that God gives to his people is prayer. Through prayer, we communicate with God and cultivate our relationship with him. Our God cares for us (1 Peter 5:7) and invites us to bring every part of our lives to him. He promises to listen, help, protect, and be near. When we pray, we surrender our thoughts, worries, and desires to the One “who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine” (Ephesians 3:20).
