And when you pray, do not heap up phrases (multiply words, repeating the same ones over and over) as the Gentiles do, for they think they will be heard for their much speaking.— Matthew 6:7 (AMPC)

An Effective Prayer

Too often we get caught up in our own works concerning prayer. Sometimes we try to pray so long, loud, and fancy that we lose sight of the fact that prayer is simply conversation with God. The length or loudness or eloquence of our prayer is not the issue—it is the sincerity of our heart and our faith that God hears that is important.

You must develop simple, believing prayer. You need the confidence that even if you only say, “God, help me,” He hears and will answer. You should believe that God wants to help you because He is your Helper (see Hebrews 13:6). You can depend on God to be faithful to do what you have asked Him to do, as long as your request is in accordance with His will.

Prayer of the Day: I thank You today, Father, that prayer doesn’t have to be long and complicated. You hear even my short, heartfelt prayers. I am grateful that I can have a continuous conversation with You all through the day, and that You hear and answer me.
