Hello brethren on Hive.,I would like to share what l learnt during the third (3) of mass indoctrination as brother Eli teachers on Prayer.
You can also watch my reaction video as follows.
PRAYER
I learnt that prayer is one of the doctrine of Jesus Christ and also a command from God.
God require us to pray and if that is the case, How do we pray?
If we are talking about prayer then there are things we need to do for God to hear our prayer.
Many people pray and their prayers are not been heard by God.This is a result of their sinful nature.
John 9:31
Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.
Proverb 15:8
The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD: but the prayer of the upright is his delight.
From the above scriptures l learnt that God will listen to those who are upright in heart.Therefore lets all leave away every sin that easily enslave us and come to God with a clean heart.
THE RIGHT WAY THE BIBLE TEACHES US ON HOW WE SHOULD PRAY
I learnt that there are three things we should do when praying.
- When we pray we should not use repetitive words thinking that, God is going to hear us as we repet our words
Matthew 6:7
But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
Dont think that the more you repetition of your word will enable God to hear you.Even the few word are heard by Him.
- We should not let the whole world see we are praying by showing off.
Matthew 6:5
And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
- Woman should cover their hair while men are not suppose to do that.
1 Corithians 11 :4-6
Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoureth his head.
But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven.
For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.
The bible should always be the basis for every act we do in the body of Christ.
