Teach Us To Pray- Pray AND Ask
Read Philippians 4:6-7
In this short verse Paul is teaching on prayer and makes the point that relationship and connection with God is the main goal of prayer. Any relationship that is primarily transactional and about getting our own needs met isn’t a healthy relationship. That’s not the kind of relationship we want with God. In prayer we seek a sense of connection, freely sharing ourselves, a sense of peace, a safe place to express all our emotions... and we make requests.
What is one of the most powerful prayer experiences you’ve had?
Paul distinguishes between prayer AND supplication or “asking” for things. What do you think is the difference?
One thing emphasized here and other passages is that prayer is about connection to God first. Why is it so important that it’s a prayer of connection first and foremost?
Paul instructs us on how to make requests when he says, "with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” Why is that important?
VS 7 sounds like it’s the result of praying how we are instructed to in VS 6. "And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” The result of praying this way is peace. Why is that?
