Candor while on two knees of humility -- that's a good thang!

 Lord, I need you today.  Please give wisdom and direction.  Fill me with your Spirit and show Your purpose for me. 


Can you get away to a fairly quite place and just get real with your first-love? 

What do you know of honest praying? Why pray at all? How can I get God to answer my prayers? What is praying in the Spirit?

How does prayer work? What does the Bible say about how prayer works? How can I get my prayers to work?

What is a prayer circle? What is the origin of the idea of a prayer circle? Is there any value in praying in a prayer circle?

What is the purpose of prayer? What is the meaning and value of prayer? Why should I pray?

What is a prayer chain? Are prayer chains biblical? Is a prayer chain a good way to encourage people to pray for others?

"The wonderful thing about praying is that you leave a world of not being able to do something and enter God's realm where everything is possible. He specializes in the impossible. Nothing is too great for His almighty power. Nothing is too small for His love." ~ Cornelia Arnolda Johanna a.k.a. "Corrie" ten Boom

"The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much." James 5:16b kjv

Is there evidence that God answers prayer? Can there ever be indisputable proof that God answered a prayer request?

What is a prayer vigil? Are there any prayer vigils in the Bible? Is a prayer vigil an effective way to pray?

Why is daily prayer important? Should we pray every day? Should we pray more than once a day?

Often times in love God will answer believers with a "No" or "Wait" at the moment for the bigger "Yes" in our lives later on.

Our Father knows what best and perfect for us in this imperfect sin-cursed world, and He lovingly delights to answer every prayer that we pray. He loves you!
