Pray About It

June 01, 2025

"Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.” Matthew 6:8

Prayer should be an essential part of any believer’s life. Prayer is our communication with God. Prayer has a way of turning situations around, and no matter how low we are, prayer has a way of lifting us up. When we come to God in prayer, we just need to be ourselves, and talk to Him for ourselves. The Scripture reminds us we do not need to emulate anyone else when we pray but remember that God knows what we have need of before we ask Him. I encourage you today not to be timid when you go to God in prayer. God knows what you have need of, and He already knows how He is going to supply that need. You may ask yourself if God already knows then why do I need to pray? You need to pray because God wants to hear from you, and He wants you to ask Him for what you need. There are times in prayer when we do not know what to ask for, but God will put it on our hearts. It does not make a difference what you are going through, and how many things are on your plate, pray. You may have tried everything else and everyone else, and they may not have been able to help, but try God in prayer, and watch Him work it out for you. There are no special words when you pray, but just pray and let God do there rest for you. I know prayer is the key that unlocks so many doors for me, and no matter what it looks like I will ask God in prayer, knowing He already knows what I need, and has already worked it out for me. Since I will pray and believe God will answer all my prayers I have no doubt, "It's My Year To Get my Thing From My God!"

Prayer:

Lord, thank you for all you are doing in my life. Thank you for listening to me when I pray, and thank you for answering me when I pray. No matter what it looks like, I will not worry about or fret about it, I am just going to pray about it. I love you Lord. In Jesus Name Amen.
