PRAYER
What is prayer? Prayer, I believe, is our communion with the Almighty. There are numerous ways of communion with the Almighty. The bible says when my saints shall humble themselves and pray then shall I forgive their sins and heal their land. This is what this essay is all about. Our intercession and supplication laid before our heavenly Father.
There are different kinds of prayer. One of the main points is praying in the holy ghost and having the spirit of God direct us in our prayer. Secondly, praying with faith as Mark 11:24 praying with faith is believing with faith we have received the answers to our prayers according to the will of God. Praying with thanksgiving we must learn to thank God for our answers (Luke 17:17).
Prayer is petition (John 16:23-24). God is our Provider. He is Jehovah Jireh as John 16:23-24 tells us. We must learn to ask according to the will of God. Once in our home, when I was about 9 years old, we were living in Singapore during that time. We had no food in our home so we decided to pray for food. Miraculously, the next day, a lady from our prayer group came home with large packets of food because as she and her friend were praying, God gave her a vision of our empty refrigerator and told her and her friend to fill it up. God is good. We petitioned God and He answered our prayer.
Prayer is intercession. Intercession is when we share the burden of Christ for a person, circumstance or need anywhere in the world. We have become partakers of Christ’s suffering.

Therefore, intercessor fills the bridge between Christ and the need. Through Christ gaining victory in prayer. Prayer is therefore praise and worship, waiting on God, confession, intercession, petition and thanksgiving.
In conclusion I would like to say that God has bestowed on us this awesome gift of communing with our Creator, thanking our Provider, worshipping our Creator, loving our Heavenly father and listening to Him. Above all, experiencing His love and growing to be more like Him.
