Daniel was a man of prayer,daily he prayed three times (Dan 6 v 10).we do not have to be like Daniel,it would be good if we were.But one thing for sure we need to pray,it must be a priorty in all our lives,when should one pray,I have set times of prayer,but of course I pray regularly through the day.I very rarely close my eyes when I pray,especially when I'm driving.I love writing about prayer ,there is so much one can say about prayer. First let me say it is not something one does to impress people,or even God,or even ourselves.Prayer is a very personal thing,not something one should boast about,it is not to gain browie points,no its connecting with God,bringing all things to Him,praise,petition,and personal.Many people live very busy lives,with challenges each day,they may have deadlines to meet.God undersands all about us and the pressures's we are under,but the fact is because of those things we need to pray,and when we do we will receive the help we need,the wisdom we need,the guidance we need ,and the protection we need,and so on.The pressures's we face are not meant to drive us away from God,but to God, and so one must avail oneself to prayer,He will always welcome us into His presence,always. Although our Saviour told us to pray in secret (Matthew 6 v 5-6) understand why in its conext. It is not wrong to tell people you pray for them,it will encourage them,and even offer to pray with people,but don't be pushy.Remember as a Christian you have the Holy Spirit who will help you in your prayers,
