Prayer Scriptures

Prayer is our direct connection with God. Though he knows everything, it makes us feel reassured that our prayers have reached him on the journey from our hearts to Heaven. Prayer is not about informing God but about hoping that our prayers will be answered. It may be in a different way than what we are thinking of, but he still helps us solve our problems. You can pray anywhere, anytime, and for any reason. Here are some scriptures that talk about prayer:

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your prayers to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus."    -Philippians 4:6-7

"And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all of the saints."    -Ephesians 6:18

"This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us - whatever we ask - we know that we have what we asked of him."                              -1 John 5:14-15

If you build your relationship around God, you are one step closer to a happier, healthier lifestyle. Prayer is effective.
