What new insights about the importance of prayer did you gather from this lesson?
-
God is always willing to listen, he is just waiting for his people to be willing to talk and have a relationship with him.
God already knows what we are going to pray about before we even get started, therefore there is no need for rambling.
Even when we think he is not listening or answering our prayers, he is! Our answers come on God’s timing not our own.
So always have patience with God, just as he is patient with us. -
That God cares about me and what I am going through and that when I pray He bends and listens.
-
I picture God bending down to hear what I have to say. That I matter to Him, so He doesn’t want to miss a word that I say. He cares that much about me. So, it’s important that I think carefully about my prayer requests, my motives, desiring that my will aligns with His.

When going to the Lord in prayer I place myself in the position of a child seeking their earthly daddy. God is Abba Father to me. I can run to Him with childlike trust knowing that He will catch me when I fall. My Abba Father doesn’t just know I’m calling out to Him, He inclines His ear to my heart so He not only knows the words that are coming out of my mouth He knows that what He is hearing is the abundance of what is in my heart. He knows me by name, He knows my heart.
