What to do on your knees

Jesus when asked by His disciple to teach them to pray gave them what we call the model prayer. My grandmother Gladys Frazier taught me every thing I know about cooking. She taught me recipes and how to season food. A good cook understands his ingredients. I think the same thing is true when it comes to pray.... If prayer is going to be powerful we must have the right ingredients. 1. Acknowledge God as your heavenly Father 2. Praise God for Who He is and what He has done 3. Choose one of God's names and thank Him for being that to you 4. Present your day to the Lord 5. Present your body to the Lord 6. Confess your sins before God and ask Him to help you live His way 7. Ask God to help you to only speak words that bring life 8. Ask God for whatever you need 9. Pray for God's will in your life 10. Pray for other people around you Remember these are on ingredients and seasonings you can mix them and experiment with them to make it fit your personality
