I need PrayerDefining Prayer:What is prayer in the Bible?Prayer in the Bible is how believers of God talk to him.It’s how they make their praise and requests known.The Scriptures are filled with beautiful examples of people crying out to God and asking for his strength, guidance, healing and more.As a Christian, I can learn from the prayers in the Bible.They can encourage me as I read answered prayers and give me hope that God truly does hear my prayers.This leads to what is the purpose of prayer is.If we don’t understand the purpose of prayer in the Bible, how can we understand the purpose of prayer in our own life?The Purpose of Prayer for ChristiansThe purpose of prayer in the Bible is to make your praise or request known to God.Through prayer, men and women of God were able to ask Him for deliverance, mercy, healing, and miracles.The reason Christians pray today is for the same reasons why people prayed in the Bible:to speak to God and ask for healing, forgiveness, and direction.Praying is how Christians grow a deeper relationship with Christ and how they know the direction he wants their life to go in.Jeremiah 33:3Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know.Prayer of FaithA prayer of faith means you pray having faith God hears you and will do what is best in the situation.No matter how big or small the prayer you can pray with faith.This is easier said than done when we come face to face while trials, but you can hold on to the truth that God is listening to your prayers.He sees you in the midst of your heartache and is still with you.He will never leave you or forsake you!And whatever you ask in prayer, you will receive, if you have faith.Matthew 21:22Prayer of PetitionA prayer of petition is making a request to God.You can pray for anything you may need or someone you know needs.Ideas of what you can pray for:Health
