Summary
Review: ~Prayer is not natural. It must be taught, learned, and developed. ~One of Jesus' greatest prayer habits was solitude. ~Every bit of power we have in prayer has come through Jesus. ~Prayer is aimed to the Father--Not for anyone else! ~Prayer should be fervent. ~Prayer should be simple. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What does "if it is your will" really mean? Can prayer change God's mind? God allows Himself to be effected by us because He LOVES us. The reason God answers prayers is because His children ask.
