What the Bible Says about Prayer:

Birth Announcement

“Everything that God has created is good; nothing is to be rejected, but everything is to be received with a prayer of thanks.” – 1 Timothy 4:4

 In Sympathy

“Do all this in prayer, asking for God’s help. Pray on every occasion, as the Spirit leads. For this reason keep alert and never give up; pray always for all God’s people.” – Ephesians 6:18

 Illness

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” – Philippians 4:6

 “Are any among you suffering? They should pray. Are any cheerful? They should sing songs of praise. Are any among you sick? They should call for the elders of the church and have them pray over them, anointing them with oil in the name of the Lord. The prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise them up; and anyone who has committed sins will be forgiven. Therefore confess yours sins to one another, and pray for one another, so that you may be healed.” – James 5:13-17

“Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.” – Romans 12:12
