True prayer—true power
“Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.” Mark 11:24
Suggested Further Reading:
Matthew 6:5-13
Allow me to quote what an old preacher said upon the subject of prayer, and give it to you as a little word of advice—“Remember, the Lord will not hear thee, because of the arithmetic of thy prayers; he does not count their numbers.
He will not hear thee because of the rhetoric of thy prayers;
he does not care for the eloquent language in which they are conveyed.
He will not listen to thee because of the geometry of thy prayers; he does not compute them by their length, or by their breadth.
He will not regard thee because of the music of thy prayers; he doth not care for sweet voices, nor for harmonious periods. Neither will he look at thee because of the logic of thy prayers, or because they are well arranged.
But he will hear thee, and he will measure the amount of the blessing he will give thee, according to the divinity of thy prayers.
If thou canst plead the person of Christ, and if the Holy Ghost inspire thee with zeal and earnestness, the blessings which thou shalt ask, shall surely come unto thee.”
Brethren, I would like to burn the whole stock of old prayers that we have been using this fifty years.
That “oil that goes from vessel to vessel,”—that “horse that rushes into the battle,”—that misquoted mangled text, “where two or three are met together, thou wilt be in the midst of them, and that to bless them,” and all those other quotations which we have been manufacturing, and dislocating, and copying from man to man.
I would that we came to speak to God, just out of our own hearts. It would be a grand thing for our prayer meetings.
For meditation:
There is a world of difference between performing prayers and real praying (Luke 18:10-13).

If you are not a believer in Jesus Christ,
you can be accepted into his kingdom.
I invite you to let him to make of you,
what He always wanted.
"PRAYER"
Marvelous God Almighty,
I come to you in the precious name of Jesus, who died for me to make me free of sin,
I want Jesus to enter in to my heart and make me free.
I confess that He is the son of God.
I ask to change my heart and to give me wisdom to understand your Holy Word full of promises of eternal value,
not only to live on this earth,
but to be expectant of my life in heaven.
In the precious name of Jesus I ask.
Amen

must lie, not in its fashion and manner,
but in the truth which it contains.”....
