I want to share the point I learned from the teaching by BRO ELISORIANO
HOW TO CALL UPON GOD
There are situations in life that we meet ourselves that we have no one to talk to, in terms of tribulations or challenges, the only one we can turn to then is God, and if you want to call upon God, you must come to him in a rightful manner so you won't speak in vain. The only way to call upon God is by praying.
John 9 vs 31; we were made to understand that God doesn't listen to sinners but to his worshippers and hears those that do his will.
Prov 15 vs 8; also that the sacrifices of the wicked is an abomination buy the prayer of upright he fits delight. So before we come to God we must be righteous
I also learn the right manner of praying that is in accordance with the word of God
HOW IS THE RIGHT MANNER OF PRAYING
- I learned that we should not pray in rosary, its not biblical, it makes one pray repetitiously. The rosary contains 59beads, so when you pray in rosary that means you're repeating the same prayer over and over again, God is not deaf nor dumb to hear
Isa 65 vs 24; makes us understand that, if you're righteous, even before you ask God will answer
Praying in rosary and praying repetitiously isn't good
Eccl 5 vs 1-2; I learned also that whenever we want to pray, we should always keep our foot while going to thee house of God and not to rash with our mouth.
Whenever we want to pray, we should speak and ask directly
God is in heaven and we are here on earth, we should make our words few
Mat 6 vs 5-6; I also learned that we should never pray to show off like the hypocrite which love to stand while praying so that others could see them, they already have their reward, but if we want to pray, we should go to our closet and pray to God in secret and our father that sees us in secret will reward us openly
Mark 11 vs 25; I also learned that before we come to the presence of God, we should have the heart of forgiveness to forgive all that has sinned against us.
Act 20 vs 35-36; I learned also that we should always kneel down while praying to God and positioned ourselves horizontally (tithemi in greek). We can stand praying but not all the time, its only allowed when the environment is not conducive.
1 Cor 11 vs 4-5; lastly I learned that when a woman wants to pray, she must have a covering on her head as the man must not have covering on the head because any man praying with coverage on his head dishonored his head and the same to woman because the hair of the woman is a glory onto her
MY PREVIOUS BELIEF
I pray repetitiously before and speak more in prayer with my shoe on and also stands before praying but now its all cleared to me thanks be to God
HOW THE TEACHING AFFECT ME
I now know the truth and will always kneel while praying, never pray repetitiously, make my prayer few, always forgive and keep to the whole thing I've learned
Thanks be to God
