Christians believe that God loves them and wishes to look after and support them. Just like a Father Prayer is the basic way in which Christians communicate with God. A little like talking to your Father Christians believe that God listens and answers their prayers but this is not necessarily in the way they might expect. When they pray, they are following the example of Jesus. Jesus put a big emphasis on prayer in his own life and encouraged others to do the same. Christians feel that when they pray they are entering into God’s presence where they receive divine strength and guidance.

Jesus told his disciples:
Ask, and it shall be given unto you; seek and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened unto you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened. (Matt 7:7-8) Jesus is not telling his disciples that all of their prayers will be answered That clearly does not happen. But Christians do believe that God will answer their prayers in His own way and in His own good time.

The Lord’s Prayer The Lord’s prayer is the most important of all Christian prayers. This is because it is the only one that Jesus actually taught his own disciples to use. Our Father in Heaven Hallowed be your name Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, On earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our debts as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation. But deliver us from the evil one. Matt Our Father in Heaven Hallowed be your name Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, On earth as it is in heaven.

Amen Pray together at religious events, not just inside a Church House Groups -Informal groups meeting for Bible Study, Prayer, friendship. Some are a continuation of the Church into the local community so that prayer and worship can continue outside the church setting Private worship Many Christians set aside a time each day when they read their Bible and pray quietly. Meditation they try to focus their thoughts quietly on God. They might do this by thinking about a particular Bible passage or by focusing on a piece of music or art(icon).
