Guidelines When You Pray

“But when you pray, go into your [most] private room, and, closing the door, pray to your Father, Who is in secret; and your Father, Who sees in secret, will reward you in the open”. When a person has made their lifestyle one of discipline, and structured to suit God’s ways and not their own, that person knows about not praying to impress the listener. When you pray to impress others, that’s the beginning and end of your return blessing, those few minutes of showing off with big words, or with that elizabethan tone in your voice. God wants us to simply talk to Him no different than we talk to other people, that’s prayer. But when you have grown beyond trying to impress others with the way you pray, that’s a sign of maturity. Now when you pray in your private time with the Lord behind closed doors, that’s when you’re getting things done in the spirit realm for success in the physical realm. God sees us praying like that in secret, He will then, reward us openly in front of others. The bible says, let your profit show, but not as if it were by your own doings, in a prideful way. Nothing great in this world has been accomplished without prayer or a man, or women of God working behind the scenes.
