How Should One Pray to GOD

Though HE knows us better than we know ourselves and knows already our wants and desires and needs we are still called to pray without ceasing....

Below is a way we should approach our GOD in prayer:

Adore HIM by lifting our eyes up, raising our arms up, hands uplifted and hearts lifted to HIM giving our undivided attention to HIM with our mouths in worship.

Confess to HIM being repentant of our sins and guilt and getting rid of our self righteous attitudes, fearing our Lord and considering HIS anger at our sins by asking forgiveness of them.

Petition HIM by seeking HIM with all our hearts, mind and soul asking HIM to heal and fix whatever is wrong deferring to HIS wisdom and authority.

Thanking HIM by giving glory due and being grateful for what HE has provided for you by giving thanks, singing, clapping of hands, worship and song uplifted to HIM.

Intercession Prayer for others is a must as we are called to prayer for others, our family, our neighbors, our friends, yes, even strangers and asking HIM to reveal HIS salvation to all.

Conclude the Prayer by asking HIM to direct our hearts to do HIS will, and asking HIM to restore us, strengthen us, confirm us and establish us and to provide always for us more than we could think of asking for or think of.
