| Prayer Support |
One of the greatest privileges believers have as they seek to live a Christian life is
prayer. When believers pray, they speak directly and personally with they Father in
heaven. Nothing comes between them and their God.
In order for us to pray properly, we do not need to use special words or a special tone
of voice. All that is needed is a sincere desire to bring to God the deepest feelings
and desires of our hearts.
If you have a need, we promise, we will pray for you. Please email us your
request. Also, check out our section about "How to pray" and
"Daily Prayers".

Believers should pray about everything!
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with

through Christ Jesus. Phil 4:6-7 (NKJV)
2.) In whose name should I pray?
In the name of Jesus.
"And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. "
John 14:13-14 (NKJV)

Absolutely!
Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He
hears us. 1 John 5:14 (NKJV)

4.) What promise is given to those who pray according to God's will?
God will grant their requests.
Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. Matthew 7:7 (NKJV)
5.) Will God always give us everything we ask for?
No, because there are times when we ask for things with wrong motives or with sin in our hearts.
You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures. James 4:3 (NKJV)
If I regard iniquity in my heart, The Lord will not hear. Psalms 66:18 (NKJV)
6.) Is there any other reason why God may not give us everything we ask for?
Yes, because what we have asked for may not be best for us.
And lest I should be exalted above measure by the abundance of the revelations, a thorn in the flesh was given to
me, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I be exalted above measure. Concerning this thing I pleaded with the
Lord three times that it might depart from me. And He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is
made perfect in weakness." Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may
rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for
Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

done On earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, As we forgive our
debtors. And do not lead us into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one. For Yours is the kingdom and the
power and the glory forever. Amen. Matthew 6:9-13 (NKJV)
8.) What warning did Jesus give concerning prayer?
We must be careful not to pray in order to be praised by men, and we should not pray with an unforgiving spirit.
"And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on
the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. Matthew
6:5 (NKJV)
"And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may
also forgive you your trespasses. Mark 11:25 (NKJV)
9.) What attitude should we have when we pray?

wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14 (NKJV)
