4 Bible Reasons Why We Must Pray
Willie A. Alvarenga
A careful study of the Bible helps us to understand that prayer is not an option in the Christian’s life, but a command from God.
In , we read, “Pray without ceasing.”
The verb “pray” comes from the Greek word proseuchomai, which is found in the imperative mood.
This means that God commands us to pray all the time.
With this in mind, let me provide a few reasons why we as Christians must pray.
We must pray because prayer helps us to defeat temptations.
In we find the text which tells us that prayer can help us to overcome temptations in our lives.
The more we pray, the better we will be able to say NO to temptation.
We must pray because Jesus is our example in prayer, and we must be imitators of Him.
We are encouraged to follow the steps of Jesus ().
Jesus was a man of prayer (; ); therefore, if we want to be like Him, we must also practice prayer every day.
We must pray because Jesus has told us that God will answer our prayers.
Jesus told His disciples to pray to God in His name ().
If we do so, then God will hear our prayers and will grant the desires of our hearts ().
We must pray because praying shows God that we want to obey His commandments.
As stated early, prayer is a command from God.
If we pray, then God will see that we want to do His will.
Prayer not only shows God that we want to obey Him, but also shows God that we depend upon Him for everything.
May God help us to take prayer seriously!
To God be the glory!
