Absolutely true!
PRAYER is where pride is abandoned, hope is lifted, and supplication is made. Prayer is provides the opportunity to humbly admit our need with claiming dependence upon God. Prayer is the needful of the Christian. Prayer is the genuine practice of our faith and hope.
Prayer is the privilege of every Christian. When we intercede in prayer we stand before Almighty God on behalf of someone or some situation.
[Romans 8:34: “Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us.”]
While Jesus is praying for us in heaven, the Holy Spirit is praying for us here on earth.
[Romans 8:26 “Now in the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know what to pray for as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words;”]
We ask through the power of Holy Spirit to come to our help. [“Pray at all times without ceasing in the power of the Holy Spirit.” Ephesians 6:18]
May God continue to Bless you.
