We are not spending a half hour sermon on prayer today because communicating with God is difficult. We are taking this half hour because of the importance of prayer!
How the Bible teaches us to pray:
1 Thessalonians 5:17 & Ephesians 6:18
For many Christians, prayer has become an escape from responsibility. Rather, prayer should lead us into the very acts and exploits for our God.
