7 Helpful Prayer Tips

7 Helpful Prayer Tips 

 

As a Christian I find there are times when I find myself in a deeper time of prayer.  As we walk through life there are so many things that bombard us and try to get us off course.  The best way for me to counter this and to find both answers and victory, is through prayer.  

Who can pray?  

Anyone. 

 But I do believe that as people who have come to know Jesus as Lord and Savior, that we have a power in prayer that others do not.  We have the Holy Spirit indwelling us, and helping to lead us into the very Presence of our Heavenly Father. We have favor as His own.

So here are a few simple ways that I have found that will help in your time of seeking hard after God's heart for you, your situation or the thing that is weighing on your spirit. 

 You don't have to be an intercessor to pray, but you do need to have a heart's desire to do it.
