Why Pray?

This week, I am going to be posting some thoughts and direct quotes from Bill Purvis’ book Pray for Your Pastor.  It is a great reminder to take some time out of your day to remember to pray for your Pastor.

Today, I want to discuss why we should pray.  Here’s a few thoughts:

1.  Prayer changes your focus.  It aligns our heart and mind with God’s.

2.  Prayer transfers your burden. It helps to lift the weight off our shoulders.

3.  Prayer prepares you for major decisions.  You’ll feel more prepared to make the call.

4.  Prayer prepares you for temptation.  Satan wants to destroy you.  Bottom line.  Prayer helps you to be stronger!

God desires to hear from you.  Stop what you are doing.  Take some time to pray.  Do it now!
