Developing your spirituality and practicing prayer are important elements in achieving a well-balanced theology. The Creator of heaven and earth is Lord of the nations. God promised to bless the whole world through Abraham. Throughout history, different people have applied that promise as a right of privilege for themselves rather than a call to service to others. God calls people, then sends them.
If we are to be about the Father's business, we must be in constant communication with Him. This is what prayer is all about. During prayer we tell God of our hurts, our worries, our concerns, as well as our joys and thrills (Philippians 4:6). We hold nothing back and ask for His guidance, care and protection (Matthew 6:10,13). We confess our faults and seek His forgiveness (Matthew 6:12).
