Bible Question:
i have a hard time leading in prayer where can i find some prayer in bible that i can remember so i can learn to pray out lound |
Bible Answer: Practice practice practice. My first out loud and in public prayers were probably as long as the verse you have quoted above. I was so scared I would mess it up. Everyone thanked me afterword for the short prayer. I got better by praying out loud during my daily prayers. I would pray in my prayer closet otherwise known as my garage and when I walked the dogs. As my prayer life matured anytime I was away from people I would pray. When people ask who I am talking to I say "God" I have even learned to pray with my eyes open so I don't trip. It was an easy transisition then to move from daily out loud prayer in the closet to out loud prayers in the company of others. In review Pray without ceasing Pray in your prayer closet Pray out loud It is not the number of words you pray but the honesty of the expresion that counts. |
