Prayer doesn’t change God; but it ALWAYS changes us.
God knows everything but YOU DONT.. Humble yourself
Prayer is not about informing God, but rather about communicating with Him, expressing needs and desires, and aligning oneself with His purposes.
Prayer is about bringing ourselves into alignment with God. It’s a space where we pause, become present, reflect, and open ourselves to something deeper than our daily thoughts.
When we pray, we’re being real and vulnerable— about our fears, hopes, and struggles.
It teaches us to trust, to let go of control, and to open our hearts. Even Jesus prayed, not because God didn’t know, but because it kept Him connected to the Father.
