Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Good evening fellow Hivers. I want to share a little bit about Prayer today.
Before then I wan to appreciate the effort of our great leaders here for the great work they are doing to bringing God words and sharing his love with us. Thank you and may God reward you all.

All through the Bible we see Jesus Christ demonstrating this act, by always praying to the father before and after any thing he does. The Bible is the word of God. And had told us about the love of God and how God demonstrated this love this everyone of us.
What is Prayer?

Prayer is the way or channel by which we communicate with God. It talks about fellowship. Now we tend and claim we love one another or have someone out there we love and will want to spend our lives with. Here, we give them our time right? Yes we do! We want them to hear from us always and us to them to hear them. This deals with dedication and commitment towards that person. Like wise with God. We need to give God our time we need him to hear us and us also to hear him. How does this works? God hears us through prayer, we talking to him. We hear God through his words by reading and studying from the Bible.
From Isaiah 65:24 I will answer their prayers before the finish praying…. And it shall come to pass, that before the call, I will hear, as they are yet to speak, I will hear.
Why should we pray?
Everything has been directed and instructed by God to us. From the Bible, in Luke 18:1 And he spoke parable unto them to this end that men ought always to pray, and not faint.
Because this is the only way by which we can access God. Toblay our supplications and request in Thanksgiving as instructed in Phil. 4:6
God is the only solution we have in any situation. Let us cultivate the habit of running to him in prayers concerning our daily lives activities, needs and troubles
How do we know if God hears our prayers?
God is not a magician, he works with principles. The Bible clearly talks about believe. We are heirs of God through our belief about him. God speaking said in John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name. You see that we need to believe first in God then we will be sure that God answers out prayers.
See Hebrews 11:6 here we learn about Faith. Faith has to do with believe. For he that commeth to God must first believe that he is, and he is a rewarder of them that deligiently seek himm
So we need to believe in God in every thing we do and coming boldly to his throne of grace we are assured of him answering our prayers.
As you trust and believe in God today, may he take away your burden and give you rest in every spares of your life. Amen
