Matthew 6:6 ” But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, Who is unseen. Then your Father, Who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.”

Praying shouldn’t be a publicity stunt for the cameras while seeking  15 minutes of fame. For it’s our personal, intimate conversation with God…and He takes prayer very seriously…and so should we.  As a Believer, I’ve seen the power of prayer and witnessed how intercessory prayer can literally  change the atmosphere.  But we tend to think of prayer as some sweet little poem we recite at the dinner table before meals and not the authoritative commands we can speak under the power of  Jesus’ blood.   To paraphrase I John 4:4, Greater is He who is in me, than he who is in the world.  And if we could but grasp a glimpse of just how powerful our prayers are…this world would be shaken, and all the evil in it.   May I then be so bold as to encourage  you to prayer walk around your town…around your schools…around the area you live in.  For we are all asking ourselves the same question, “What can I  do  in the face of all this evil in the world?”  The answer is prayer…bold, impassioned prayer.
