Pray? Why Pray?

Should I pray? The next question is , WHY?

The simple answer is , Yes I should. The why is easily answered , because HE did. The Lord gave us the good example of doing it. He didn't ask us to do something that He wouldn't do himself. Nice! He prayed. He instructed the disciples to pray while He was still with them. He told them before He ascended that He would give a gift of the Holy Spirit who would comfort us, convict us of sin( or missing the mark) , teach us truth, and live inside of us. The Holy Spirit is helping us with our weaknesses. Double Nice! When we don't know how to pray the Holy Spirit does and He intercedes for us. Romans says it best, Romans 8: 26, 27 NIV
Notice that "the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with God's will." We are saints if we have had a new birth experience. So we are getting help all the time.

If you are reading this and you have no idea what the difference is , then please read this: Jesus is reaching and teaching Nicodemus (funny name, just insert yours and ask the same question) John 3 Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a member of the Jewish ruling council. He came to Jesus at night and said , "Rabbi, we know you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the miraculous signs you are doing if God were not with him." In reply Jesus declared, "I tell you the truth , no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again." How can a man be born when he is old?" Nicodemus asked. " Surely he cannot enter a second time into his mother's womb to be born!" Jesus answered, "I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. You should not be surprised at my saying, " You must be born again. The wind blows, wherever it pleases. You hear its sound but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit." Nicodemus asked "How can this be?". " You are Israel's teacher, said Jesus, " and do you not understand these things? I tell you the truth , we speak of what we know, and we testify to what we have seen, but still you people do not accept our testimony. I have spoken to you of earthly things and you do not believe: how then will you believe if I speak of heavenly things? No one has ever gone into heaven except the one who came from heaven---the Son of Man. Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the dessert, so the Son of Man must ge lifted up, that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life."
" For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemened, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son."
"This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God."

Reader, God loves you! If You are lost, You don't have to stay that way. If You are "Born Again" You and I are to pray for the lost. Believer's join in with me to pray. Stay focused- this blog is about two things.
The first is prayer. Now is the time to pause and pray! (PzNprA) Notice my creative use of letters- ( PzNprA) The second is to be revealed soon.
