Pray. Prayer. Praying.

All within 60 days. Yes, indeed. What was I thinking? Or was God preparing me for a period of turmoil and chaos?
[ The Prayer of Faith ] Is anyone among you in trouble? Let them pray. Is anyone happy? Let them sing songs of praise. James 5:13
Faith. In faith and by faith, we pray and sing songs of praise to our Mighty God! Oh, exquisite calm prevails…
pray continually, 1 Thessalonians 5:17
If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.” Matthew 21:22
You do not have because you do not ask…so ASK in prayer. Expect to receive what you pray for, because you believe God’s Word. And you pray God’s Word. That calms me!
But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. Matthew 6:6
Pray in secret. Lovely. Simply lovely, as we are not alone even though we are in our secret place, God is with us. He hears us and rewards us. CALM…I’m finding calm in the presence of God as I pray.
