You'll find little argument from people about the importance of prayer. Most people pray. Everyone needs it. But the reality is, prayer is often disappointing when we don't get the results we desire..
Let me share with you why: It's found in the Bible, in the book of James..
"You ask and do not receive because you ask selfishly."
Prayer is not so much about asking God for what we want but rather more about finding out what He wants and finding the strength to do it.
Selfish prayers will always disappoint.. Period.
When we remove ourselves from the question and pray to know God, to find strength and to do His will, it is this kind of prayer that brings about tremendous results.. sometimes even supernatural results! This kind of praying is powerful because you're getting plugged into the ultimate power source--which is the God of the universe.
How's your prayer life? Fulfilling or disappointing? Remember your motive, for your heart is the key.
