What is prayer?
What then is prayer all about? Is it just an exercise to bring comforting
thoughts into our minds? Is it a way of miraculously solving impossible
situations? Is it simply a religious ritual by priests on behalf of their
congregations? Is it the public recital of noble thoughts and ideals or the
repetition of certain words and phrases?
This booklet is concerned with Bible teaching on the subject. This is
because those who are truly followers of the Lord Jesus Christ must, like
him, be guided in all things by what the Bible teaches, for it consists of
“the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation
through faith which is in Christ Jesus” (2 Timothy 3:15).
The Bible leaves us in no doubt that believers ought to pray:
“Then he spoke a parable to them, that men always ought to pray and not
lose heart.” (Luke 18:1)
“Pray without ceasing.” (1 Thessalonians 5:17)
