"But when you pray, you should go into your room and close the door.

Then pray to your Father. He is there in that private place. He can see what is done in private, and he will reward you.

“...Your Father knows what you need before you ask him.

Matthew 6:6,8 (ERV)

As Christians, we believe Jesus taught us how to pray and experience the power of prayer working in our daily lives.

Jesus teaches us that the simple act of privately going to him with your needs will reap rewards. It is not about the end result or the physical needs we place before Him that he is seeking to fulfil, but instead the simple act of acknowledging our Father in heaven loves us profoundly and is in control of the world we are a part of.

It is the act of placing our trust and our faith in His will be done, not ours; and that we achieve things in life through the strength He provides us with, not our own. Jesus tells us to do this privately and give your trust in him to work His will in your life.
