Prayer is the privilege of talking with the Living God! Through the sacrifice of Jesus for us on the Cross, we now have the privilege of coming into the Presence of God the Father without fear, shame, guilt, or condemnation! We come before Him in the Righteousness of His Son, Jesus; not our own.
Romans 8: 15-16
Jesus literally invites us to partner with Him through prayer in accomplishing His purpose and will in the earth! Prayer is when we spend time quietly before the Living God just listening; not saying a word; waiting in His Presence. It is in this waiting that we hear the voice of God and learn about those things that are upon His heart! It is there in the quietness that He speaks to us, by His Spirit and by His Word, the Bible.

- The lost are saved and the family and the community is transformed by a fresh, new encounter with the Living God. It is only through prayer that the Lord chooses to accomplish this.
