Bible Question:
Hi everyone, Someone asked me this and I would like some verses on your answer... If you pray to God too much about something or in to much detail things will go worse! Is this true? I know God likes it when we pray but now I need verses to support this. Thanks Seedling |
Bible Answer: Hi Seedling, Luke 18:1 And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint; The parable Jesus told was of a widow woman who returned again and again bringing her same petition. Here Jesus encourages us to continue in prayer. Mat 26:39 And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt. Jesus prayed that the Father would "let this cup pass". But He always closed His prayer with "but not My will, Thy will be done." Pray what is in your heart, and pray without fainting! Be strong in prayer, and be yielded to our Lord. But not our will, rather His will be done. Love in Christ, Mark |
