When And What We Should Pray For

By April Briggs


We live in a time that people tend to believe in themselves more than they believe in God. In this article, we will focus the attention on what should we pray for and how praying will change our life for the better. Our primary focus will be on the things that we can ask God to help us in times of happiness and times of distress. We cannot live a life as though we do not have a person that is up in heaven that understands our predicament.

Selfishness and the zeal to make it big has been the greatest undoing that we have in the present times. If we could regularly be praying, we would face very little complications in our relationship with other people. But the problem of everyone for themselves has become so serious that we live on two ends of the world.

It is important to note that faith is an integral aspect of our life if we are to make any progress in the things that we want to do. Some member in the Christian circles prays for the wrong reason. They pray for things that do not have a heavenly dimension that is bent to harm other people, or it is of selfish interest.

We are a mind, body and soul and the three aspects of human beings need to be nourished at all times. If we are in the habit of eating good food to the body and we miss the important aspect of feeding our spirit at some point, we will feel empty.

That means that we need to highlight and discuss with him why we need the thing that we are asking. On the same note, it needs not be a self interest kind of intercession such that it is centered towards us. If we keep praying just by asking without giving thanks and praising then, we make it complicated.

We have free breathed air, and we can plan our things that will succeed according to his will and glory. The next important aspect that makes us a family is the fact that we intercede for each other. Praying for other people gives us the energy to see them us part of the family.

It makes us aware the we are brothers and sisters in this world such that we need each other, and we share common problems for all. Intercession means that we can offer the requests that are in the interest of God and that of those around us.

As we focus on the other things in this life the only way that we can know that we have given our best to we get time to give back to the society and through prayer at all times. Praying makes us conscious of the wishes of God in our time and that of those close to us. If we could be the kind of individuals that see the importance of praying, then we would sort so much in our lifetime.
