Being Prayer Ignorant
By Mark Flippo
Matthew 6:7-13 (MSG)
“The world is full of so-called prayer warriors who are prayer ignorant. They’re full of formulas and programs and advice, peddling techniques for getting what you want from God. Don’t fall for that nonsense. This is your Father you are dealing with, and he knows better than you what you need. With a God like this loving you, you can pray very simply.
Well God told us. He does not want fancy prayers. He does not want us to be like the pharisees of the Bible that stood in the high places so all would see how Pius (phony holiness) they were. He wants us to be genuine and honest in all we do, especially prayer. He knows a phony before they ever speak. They will not be heard. Be Humble in your approach to God like Esther of the Old Testament. Then you will have His attention and you may ask of Him about your needs.
