Bible Note: Greetings mely! Welcome to the Study Bible Forum! If the word of God does not speak against praying silently, why would we put such limitations on a mighty God who not only is able to, but does know our thoughts and our heart ? (Psalm 139:23; Isaiah 66:18, 1 Chronicles 28:9, Psalm 44:21, 1 Samuel 16:7, Jeremiah 17:10) etc... Have you ever had a prayer answered? Have you ever had a silent prayer answered? God bless, Steve |
