Prayer

Prayer is not just asking GOD something we want.

Prayer should also include confession of sin, and

praise to GOD for who He is and what He has

done for us.

Prayer should have an additional

element, and that is thanksgiving.

 It is easy to be

thankful when GOD blesses us with something good.

But we should "give thanks in all circumstances, for

this is GOD's will for us in Christ Jesus" (1Thess. 5:10)

Thankfulness drives a sour or prideful spirit.
