Did you ever wonder if theres a better way to pray? Did you ever study prayer in the Bible? Did you ever study prayer within the proper context the Bible was written in? Heres a study on the context to prayer. When Jesus points out how to pray by ourselves, He is pointing to the close and personal relationship with God He came to teach about. He also points us back to David’s prayer which takes on a who new meaning when we put it into the personal context Jesus teaches about. “O LORD, hear my plea for justice. Listen to my cry for help. Pay attention to my prayer, for it comes from honest lips.” Look at this prayer not only from David’s view point, but Jesus’. It’s a plea to God to listen. We know God is always listening, sees everything, and is always with us. Why would we have to ask God to listen? Why would David or Jesus ask God to listen? Prayer works in stages. In essence, prayer is approaching God’s throne. adventbiblestudy.wordpress/2013/11/09/psalms-171-15-hear-my-plea/
