God is speaking to you through His Word and through the Holy Spirit and when we talk to Him in prayer, He does respond back.


we need understand how God communicates, then look for His reply.
Romans 8:34(b) - 34 …Christ Jesus who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us.

We can approach the throne of grace with confidence

There is no other priest but Jesus


“What do I say when I pray?”
Jesus said, “When You Pray”. Praying isn’t optional!

Jesus is not saying you can’t pray something more than once. It’s that He just wants us to be sincere and not hollow in our words!

This is a model for prayer not a direct directive in what exact words to say.


The Five “P’s” of Prayer

Praise – Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, (Matthew 6:9)

Petitioning His Purpose – your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. (Matthew 6:10)

Provision – Give us today our daily bread. (Matthew 6:11)

Pardon – Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. (Matthew 6:12)

Protection – And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from the evil one. (Matthew 6:13)

Matthew 6:14-15

Jesus gave a very strong warning and promise.

Why do we hold on to bitterness and unforgiveness towards others? It could be what is keeping us from God’s blessings in our lives right now!!

Prayer is powerful! We are speaking to the God of the universe! The Creator of Heaven and Earth.

Jesus made a way for us to speak to God the Father through Him. He wants to hear from us and speak to us. Why would we not want to talk to Him?
There are three main reasons for not praying when we realize we are in trouble: ignorance, arrogance, and shame.

prayer is a request to God, not a demand.


Jesus taught us how to pray and James showed us some important reasons why to pray.

the best way to get to know someone is to spend time with them. The same is true with God. There is no shortcut. We must spend time with Him.

“You are known by the company you keep”.

I want to be known by keeping company with God!!

do you just know about Him or do u truly know Him?

Come and Pray today and talk to the King of Kings and Lord of Lord’s
