Prayer - Talking with God - Class #5 The word and Prayer (David Bailey)

Prayer: We live in an affluent age, when in the abundance of things possessed, many overlook their need of Yahweh and take for granted the material blessings of life.

Thus Worship tends to become cold and distant; and Prayer a mere, mechanical repetition of words without power, instead of the fervent outpouring of the heart unto God.
It is not an age of Prayer.
What a contrast to the attitude shown by faithful men of old. Experiencing want, and pressurised by persecution,
they found help in prayer.

It was a source of comfort in trouble, communion in loneliness, uplift in depression.
And it was powerful.
