When You Pray

When You Pray . . .

When you pray ~ draw near to God,
and ask to know His will
give Him your praise and adoration
and believe your request He’ll fulfill

When you pray ~ come to the Father,
confess and forsake your sin
be in harmony with His Word
and depend on His Spirit to dwell within.

When you pray ~ call upon the Lord,
stand on the authority of His name
have faith in all of your petitions
and be sure His strength you claim.

When you pray ~ go to the throne,
boldly ask . . . seek . . . and knock . . .
you will never find His door closed
for there is no key or lock.

When you pray ~ draw near to God,
then agree . . . watch . . . and obey . . .
He wants you to persevere . . .
until His answers come your way!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Matthew 6:6
King James Version

"But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet,
and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father
which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth
in secret shall reward thee openly.
