MASS INDOCTRINATION DAY 3
**Bro. Eli Soriano: Teacher**
Hello everyone, trust you all are doing great. I will be sharing what I learned from the teaching of mass indoctrination on the doctrine of our Lord Jesus Christ as it has to do with Prayer which impacted us in no small way.
Prayer is a request for help from God, it is how we talk to God.
THINGS TO NOTE ABOUT PRAYER.
** Matthew 6:7 "But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. The World English Bible translates the passage as: **_**In praying, don't use vain repetitions, as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard for **_their much speaking"
Avoid unnecessary repetition in prayer. This is because even before you say your prayers to God, He's already aware of your request. He is the God of all wisdom. Just like the popular saying goes; "A word is enough for the wise" He is a wise and Merciful God, whose wisdom transcend the wisdom of man.
Prayer must be made with a clean and righteous heart: Prayers made out of a grievous and wicked heart is an abomination to God and cannot be heard.
when you pray as a man, do not pray covering your head, and for the woman, don't praying uncovering your head.
Is there a Particular posture for prayer?
**- **there isn't a mandatory posture one must observe before praying to God, However it is preferred to kneel while praying as this shows an act of reverence and respect to God . Nonetheless, you can stand also stand praying but when you do, the bible advise that you do not do it to show off as the heathen do. "Prayer is not to show off some religious exercise" To avoid showing off, it is even advised to do it in your closets.
- Let word of God dwell in us richly
I payer that God will help us to live up to the standard of His word in Jesus name. Amen.
God bless you real good.
