Questions about Prayer
1.
Is there a particular way to pray,
referring to Luke 11: 1-4
Answer- There isn’t an exact
way to pray, the scripture referred to above is a guide/ format to approaching
God.
2.
Why do we pray when God is all
knowing?
Answer- do we pray only to let
God know of something? C’mon prayer is about communication, we also get to
‘know’ when we pray. God wants us to depend on Him, so we must pray. It is a
basic principle in the Bible. Note: prayerlessness is the highest form of
arrogance. (Ref: Jeremiah 6:16)
3.
Some people said to have received
without asking. However, the Bible says ask and you shall receive (Luke 11:10)
Answer- Our thoughts are loud
in Heaven and our God is very sensitive to our needs. Most times people receive
without asking because they may have settled the need a long time ago in their
secret prayer altars even without knowing or remembering. This emphasizes how
important it is that we pray in the Holy Ghost.
4.
Is it compulsory for a person to
have a prayer time?
Answer- the need for a prayer
time is that we discipline ourselves because of the unwillingness of our
bodies. But we need to bring it to subjection of the Spirit. Hence, a prayer
time is essential for the believer who desires to grow. Nevertheless, the Bible
tells us to pray always, without ceasing. (Ref: 1Thes 5:17)
The questions were raised and
the answers were given during the course of the meeting. Don’t miss next
week’s!!!
Tuesdays: 7pm and Saturdays:
10:00am.
