The closet of prayer—a spiritual storehouse

Evelyn B. Brookins

Why should we pray? How should we pray? How can we make our prayers more effective?

It may be helpful to recognize that while praying doesn't change God, it does awaken us to a clearer awareness of His presence and power—it helps us to know God. To know God is different from merely knowing about Him. Christ Jesus was able to heal instantaneously because his understanding of God wasn't limited to human knowledge. He was intimately acquainted with God as his Father, and he even stated that he was one with the Father. He said, "I am in the Father, and the Father in me" (John 14:11).
