Why Pray? (Luke 6:12-30, Romans 12:12)
Jesus regularly drew away to secluded places to pray and spend time in The Father's presence. Jesus found this connection vital to carrying out His mission on Earth. Jesus is our example, and if we are to rise above life's circumstances and be the over-comers that He calls us to be, it is vital that we cultivate our prayer life and spend quality time with Him.
Without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who diligently seek him. (Hebrews 11:6)
