Remember the saying, 'When all else fails, pray'? Why? Why just when all else fails? Why not anytime? Why must it be something we do when everything around us is crashing around our heads? Shouldn't we be in constant communication with our Heavenly Father? I understand a bit more if you were speaking to a non Christian, because they don't understand, nor do they have a relationship with Christ. But we, as Christians should be different. We should be seeking God always. We should be desiring to get closer to Him. How do you do that though, without prayer, or bible study for that matter? Is God just a genie for us to help us when we get ourselves into trouble. Or maybe the trouble is not caused by us, but by our surroundings, friends, workers, family even?
James 5:16 The effectual, fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
God tells us to pray. In fact, Jesus taught us to pray in Matthew 6:9-13. This is the model prayer. Anyone can pray. It's not just for evangelical pastors, or those in big churches, leaders and such. It's for you and for me. It's for those who want to know who God is. Prayer can help you know God. Are you willing? Or are you just waiting until all else fails? He's God. He loves you and wants to hear from you anytime.
God bless!
