Prayer

". . . and His ears are attentive to their prayer."

1 Peter 3:12

Prayer

Preparation . . .

All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God . . .
(Romans 3:23)

If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.
(1 John 1:8-9)

Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence . . .
(Hebrews 4:16)
