31 DAYS TO A BETTER PRAYER LIFE | DAY 31: PRAY BOLD PRAYERS

One of the things I have noticed about most people is that they pray for average every day things.  Now there isn’t anything wrong with that because God cares about the smallest details in our lives.  However, many people wonder why there doesn’t seem to be anything extraordinary in their prayer life.

Let me make the following suggestion as a hypothesis.  I believe many people have a hum drum prayer life because they don’t pray for anything that requires a supernatural response from God.  Many of the prayers we pray will come to pass if we put in enough time and effort or simply just wait long enough for it to come to pass.

31 DAYS TO A BETTER PRAYER LIFE | DAY 27: IT’S OK TO QUESTION

Everyone that has ever prayed has asked God questions.

Usually those questions are something like this:

· God, what do you want me to do in this situation?
