What Do You Pray About?

 

When we are overwhelmed by the troubles and sorrows of life, we are to pray for wisdom amid the trials - that we may see trials as an opportunity for great joy and a means to cultivate perseverance as we remember God's sovereignty through it all.

When we are happy or in good spirits, we are to sing and praise God as we count our blessings and acknowledge that all good things come from our good Father.

When we are sick, we are to call upon the elders of the church to pray over us, trusting that the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well.

Faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.

A prayer made in faith is thus one that is made based on God's promises and with the conviction that God will keep His word and fulfill it in His good timing.
