Spirit CallingNäide

PRAYER FOSTERS INTIMACY WITH ME. I cherish the time spent with you. I am your companion and friend, so keep a running conversation with Me, sharing anything and everything that’s on your heart and mind. I am always listening. This kind of ongoing conversation is what keeps us in close proximity. The enemy wants you to believe that prayer is some formula with a prescribed process. Prayer is simply communicating with Me. Ask the Spirit to lead you to Me in prayer. Ask Him to prompt you as you go about your day to chat with Me and include Me in inner conversations you’re having with yourself. As you pray, your level of anxiety and stress will diminish. Prayer itself is a way to find peace. 

Holy Spirit, lead me into the direct presence of the Father in prayer. Nudge my heart and mind to stay in close communication with You during my day. Help me to remember that prayer is about a relationship with You rather than a task I need to complete.
