Prayer

A Prayer for God to Give You Compassion for Your Enemies - Your Daily Prayer - July 17

Some of Jesus’ hardest teachings come from his Sermon on the Mount, including instructions to not only love and pray for fellow believers, but our enemies as well.

What Is Prayer?

Prayer isn’t a ritual that depends on closing our eyes and putting on holy faces. We don’t have to kneel or sit. We can pray while walking, driving, or working. God responds to a two word cry for help in the middle of a busy afternoon, just like He does to a focused prayer time after reading Scripture in the morning. Praying doesn’t have to be complicated. God delights in any simple words we offer Him.
