Bible Study: Do You Pray and Fast?
Some say fasting is a thing of the past. Not so with Christian living. If you pray for something and are willing to let a meal go by, or just some food that you like, and your prayer is not for self gain, that is the kind of prayer your Lords wants to answer. Never just say a prayer and expect to hear some good come of it. Prayer with Jesus is O-K- when all the conditions are met. First you must believe and know that you are right with your Lord. If you have sin in you (he only answers a sinner’s prayer for himself). One other thing is, if you have doubts or unbelief, while you are praying you might as well get in a chair and try to fall  asleep. Some do set down and write a prayer, then pray and think all the time that your God may answer your request. To us mortals, it is always up to a true and living God whether to answer or not. You can know by your Lord’s action back to you. And it does not have to be loud. To answer is his choice. Never try to get up an argument with your Lord. That is very unwise. Many things have happened to people who are foolish enough to try that. Good day, good prayer time. The only prayer that a true and loving God is interested in is when the prayer comes from a humble heart. We have some preachers that will not call on someone in the audience to pray. Some will pick out a certain person to pray, usually that is good for those listening. A business man told me he could not understand all praying at one time. I gave an answer to him. I looked up the word rich in a good bible and it was used twenty six times.
