  Daily Dose ♥ Matthew 6:5-8 (NLT)

Teaching about Prayer 

5 “When you pray, don’t be like the hypocrites who love to pray publicly on street corners and in the synagogues where everyone can see them. I tell you the truth, that is all the reward they will ever get. 6 But when you pray, go away by yourself, shut the door behind you, and pray to your Father in private. Then your Father, who sees everything, will reward you.

7 “When you pray, don’t babble on and on as people of other religions do. They think their prayers are answered merely by repeating their words again and again. 8 Don’t be like them, for your Father knows exactly what you need even before you ask him!

Please take heed to these verses as tools to effective Prayer.  I just want to stress on the importance of privately seeking God I know I mentioned this in another post but here is a scripture that backs what I have been saying.  Being an effective Christian to me is most importantly whats in the heart, your deeds, your works NOT criticizing others or looking down on others because you have memorized a few scriptures or have read the entire Bible yet you are still an empty vessel.  Yes, you may have been obedient in avoiding fornication and when you hear of a fellow Christians pitfalls you use that to judge them even though you may be dealing with lust inwardly or even mastubating.  That my dear in NOT Christianity!  As stated in the Bible you are a hypocrite!  Nobody is perfect.  We should ALL be holding hands and building each other up as Christians it's not a competition.
Through my walk in Christ it's really sad but I trust no one but my Savior.  I seek him privately and trust me if it's done right you will get that peace, joy & answers you have been seeking.  Now there are times that as weird as it may seem you may just don't have anything to pray about which is extremely strange:-) but hey we get those days when you are so overwhelmed and just don't know where or how to start.  Here are a few tools, hope this helps:-)  TGIF!  Have a Blessed day:-)
