Billy Graham’s daily devotional June 30, 2017 - Prayer Is a Conversation

Topic: Prayer Is a Conversation [Friday June 30, 2017]

And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive. — Matthew 21:22

Prayer is a two-way conversation; it is our talking to God, and His talking to us. As a Christian, you have a heavenly Father who hears and answers prayer. Jesus said, “All things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.” Every man or woman whose life has counted for the church and the Kingdom of God has been a person of prayer. You cannot afford to be too busy to pray.

A prayerless Christian is a powerless Christian. Jesus Christ spent many hours in prayer. Sometimes He spent the night on a mountaintop in solitary communion with God the Father. If He felt that He had to pray, how much more do we need to pray!

Wondering how to pray? Or why God isn’t answering? Read Prayer 101.

Prayer for the day: There is inexpressible joy as I come to You in prayer, my heavenly Father.
