WHAT IS PRAYER?
So, what is prayer anyway?
The simplest definition is: Prayer is listening to God, talking to God, and reflecting on the Word of God. Those are the three essential ingredients for prayer: Listening, Talking, and Reflecting (LTR—LighTeR. The world becomes lighter and less dark when we pray. Heavy burdens are lifted from us when we pray. The way is made clear through the Light. We become the light of the world when we pray.)
HOW DO YOU PRAY?
Tell God whatever is on your mind.
Listen to Him.
Read the Word SLOWLY. Take in each word. Write your thoughts as you go in a prayer journal. Talk to God as you read the Bible and listen to what He tells you about the Word and how it applies to your life and how you should apply it to your life.
It’s really that simple. Prayer is Listening first and foremost, talking to God about whatever is on your heart and is on your mind, and is reflecting on the Bible. LTR.
