Prayer is often overlooked by us in our daily life. Often times, we pray before God perfunctorily, just going through the formalities.

Never have we presented our hearts before God to have true prayers, and we just hurriedly come before Him to pray and look up to Him when we encounter some issues. It is because of such an attitude that we don’t know how to pray to God, even if we have believed in Him for many years. Today, let’s share how to pray to God together. 1.

Brothers and Sisters of Find the Shepherd:

I’m a Christian. Since I believed in the Lord, I have been enjoying the Lord’s grace and blessings, but recently I couldn’t feel the Lord’s presence.

Our words are too repetitive, and I’m sick of hearing them. Can we have a shorter prayer the next time?&rd ... Read more »

Every one of us who has faith in the Lord has known and experienced that prayer is very important, but we seldom think about whether our prayers are in accord with the Lord’s will. Some time ago, I read some spiritual books on the Internet and came to know that if we wish to obtain truth and life, we must meet three aspects of prayers every day. When I consciously followed the way given in the book, I actually got some unexpected reward. Here I shall share my gain with you.

At that time I was confused: Why do we need to pray to God every day? Does God listen to my prayers? Co ... Read more »
