Prayer is simply how we commune and communicate with our God, and it is such a privilege. The beautiful thing is that we can pray about anything anywhere because our God is Omnipresent and He can meet us wherever we are. This is why we can “pray without ceasing,” as 1 Thessalonians 5:17 NKJV tells us.
When you invite someone into your home, you don’t want to be anti-social and go up to your room and take a nap, leaving them just sitting in the living room. No, you sit with them and you talk with them. Now, the beautiful thing about talking with God is that we can talk to Him about anything.
A good host always knows how to start up a conversation with their guests. Why? The purpose of talking with your guests is so that you can engage with them and get to know them. This is the same reason we pray and talk to God, not only to list off our wants and needs, but to develop an intimate relationship with Him. Today, I encourage you to pause and pray to God, sharing with Him honestly what is on your heart.
Prayer: Dear Heavenly Father, thank you for always hearing me when I pray. Help me to come to You with a humble heart wanting to draw closer to You daily. In Jesus Christ’s Name, I pray, Amen.
