What new insights about the importance of prayer did you gather from this lesson?
-
I learned the importance of prayer is that it seems like we’re just saying words, we’re really doing, action because God hears us and answers in his timing.
-
Prayer is not considered to be one of the spiritual gifts, but a privilege made available through our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. This personal experience is having a relationship with the author and perfecter of our faith . Who bends low to hear our prayers.
-
I learned that prayer is a powerful action, an exciting adventure, and the greatest privilege of our lives. That God invited us to foster a deep relationship with Him through prayer. That prayer is not a super-spiritual skill or elite spiritual gift, but is meant for everyone. That if we neglect prayer, we forfeit the possibility of genuine blessings. That we ought to pray proactively, as a “first resort.” And that even throughout much unanswered prayer, God is doing a wonderful work within us. Lastly, I really loved the final line in William Cowper’s poem: “Restraining prayer, we cease to fight; prayer makes the Christian’s armor bright; and Satan trembles when he sees the weakest saint upon his knees!”
-
Even though I am new at praying everyday I need to do it. It is the greatest privilege to do every day. I also need to make it my first resort not my last. And I feel without prayer I will fall away from God very fast and far.
-
That God wants to form a personal relationship with us through prayer. He is always ready to bend down and hear us.
