Five of the most important words you will ever say are, LORD TEACH US TO PRAY.  We all share a common problem..none of us were born with a prayer life.  This only comes through the teaching of the Word and by the power of the Holy Spirit at work in your life.

 Many Christians never get beyond the elementary stage of prayer and remain there all the rest of their lives.  What a tragic commentary on a life that could otherwise be full of fresh miracles and a daily adventure with the Lord.

 Prayer was never designed to be a playground…it is rather a battleground.  Hard work and discipline are required, but the results are well worth the investment.    Talk to any prayer warrior about what prayer means to them and you will get an incredible response.  They know what happens when you spend time with God.  They have taken seriously those five powerful words: LORD TEACH US TO PRAY.

 I am thankful for Christian parents who had prayed that prayer and set an example before their children.  Yes, prayer is the key to power through the Holy Spirit.
