Prayer is the most powerful force known to man, so why don’t we want to turn to prayer to answer the problems in the lives of those we love? We should be quick to pray in the supernatural before we try to do anything in the natural. Prayer wields the power that unlocks heaven’s doors and brings the answers that you desire for you, your family, your pastor, and your church.

Prayer is laying hold of the unseen reality that lies before us. Prayer is accepting the rights and privileges of a citizen of heaven. Prayer is declaring once again that God is mighty and that He has our lives in the palm of His hands. Prayer is the method God chose to align our spirits with His. Oswald Chambers’ life was focused on prayer. That is why he declared, “Prayer does not fit us for the greater work; prayer is the greater work.”

The fact is that prayer is the hardest work we will ever do…and the most rewarding.
