Prayer is one of the most basic activities of the Christian faith. Prayer is simply talking with God. While at times people or religions have made prayer seem very complex, prayer is no more complex than speaking with a good friend, with your spouse, or with a relative. To talk to God, we don’t need complex methods in order to pray. In order to communicate with God, we don’t need a priest or someone to talk to God on our behalf. Prayer does not require advanced education. We do not need to have a lot of knowledge to pray. Today, all that we need to pray is to take the time to talk to God. We can always talk to God, wherever we are and in whatever situation we are in.
As Jesus’ followers saw Jesus praying, they asked. “Lord, teach us how to pray just as John taught his disciples” (Luke 11:1). Jesus’ followers never asked Jesus to teach them to heal the sick. Jesus’ followers never asked Jesus to teach them to teach or preach to the masses. This is one of the only occasions when Jesus’ followers saw Jesus do something, and then asked how to do it for themselves. Certainly the way Jesus talked to His heavenly Father must have been something so spectacular they wanted to do it for themselves.
In response to this question. Jesus gives us a brief glance into His conversation with the Father, and shows us how to pray! This special collection of stories highlight the importance of prayer.
