There are many things that the Lord Jesus teaches us as we read through the Bible. As we look into the scriptures, we can see that Jesus was never asked by His disciples to, “teach us to preach”, “teach us to speak in tongues”, “teach us growth strategies”, or even “teach us how to do an altar call”. Jesus was asked one of the most important and poignant questions ever asked as we can see written in *Luke 11:1 Now it came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, that one of His disciples said to Him, “Lord, teach us to pray…* Jesus lived a life of prayer, He was a man of prayer. How did the disciples know? They had seen it before as it is written about in *Luke 5:16 So He Himself often withdrew into the wilderness and prayed.* My world is so filled up with noise and distractions it is challenging at times for me to hear from God because I don’t have uninterrupted prayer time with Him. Some of the most intimate times I have had with God are when I turn off my phone, leave my home, and go for a walk, just God and me. I am convicted by what Charles Spurgeon said, “We do not forget to eat: we do not forget to take the shop shutters down: we do not forget to be diligent in business: we do not forget to go to our beds to rest: but we often do forget to wrestle with God in prayer, and to spend, as we ought to spend, long periods in consecrated fellowship with our Father and our God.” My beloved, if you do not pray you will never know what God can do, but if you do pray, you will be amazed when you realize what He has already done. Brethren, be sure to pray, and when you think you are done, you might want to pray some more. I am encouraged by what John Bunyan said, “Pray often, for prayer is a shield to the soul, a sacrifice to God, and a scourge to Satan.”
