The<br />

Importance of Prayer<br />

Part #4<br />

<strong>My</strong> prayer is that you have been enjoying<br />

the nuggets of a relationship of prayer with<br />

our heavenly Father as much as I have.<br />

As we begin to come to a close of the year,<br />

I would like to leave you with a few things<br />

that are commanded of us in this relationship:<br />

1. We should have no other Gods before Him.<br />

2. We must study to show ourselves approved a workman, rightly dividing the Word of Truth.<br />

3. Our lives are not our own. We have been bought with a price, the blood of Jesus.<br />

4. The Father is seeking true worshippers; those who will worship in spirit and in truth.<br />

5. Give and it shall be given, give to the Father all that is due Him.<br />

6. Have faith in God.<br />

7. Pray without ceasing.<br />

8. Men ought always to pray and not faint.<br />

9. Lord, teach us to pray.<br />

10. Have faith in God.<br />

11. After this manner, pray Ye.<br />

Take the time to look up these scriptures in your Bible. You may use your Bible dictionary, Concordance,<br />

or Thesaurus. This is your homework.<br />

Out of an effort of study and meditation, I was blessed with this poem:<br />

The Lord’'s Prayer<br />

<strong>My</strong> Father, who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy name.<br />

Since the day I met you, my life has not been the same.<br />

Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done as in Heaven, so be it on earth.<br />

Your name stands above all names, none can match its’ worth.<br />

Give me this day, my daily bread, food for my spirit and my soul.<br />

Oh, how I thirst and hunger, as if after the purest gold.<br />

And forgive all my debts, as I forgive my debtors.<br />

Teach me true forgiveness, as I feast on your love letters.<br />

Lead me not into temptation, but deliver me from evil.<br />

Help me keep my mind stayed on you lest my life becomes upheaveled.<br />

For thine is the Kingdom, the glory, and the power.<br />

And I’m honored to give ecstatic praise in this your finest hour.<br />

Psalmist Gwen Johnson
