A Prayer Room of Your Own

by Chere Williams

“But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. Matthew 6: 6-7

The most rewarding relationship that you will ever develop—is with God. If you don’t have a relationship with the Father then every other relationship in your life will suffer. God desires an intimate relationship with us. As Christians we want to continuously mature spiritually in our walk with the Lord. Being stagnant is not an option if you want to be a servant of God. Maturing in our faith requires study, prayer, and an open ear for God’s instruction. Life is demanding, but our prayer life must remain our main priority. You absolutely cannot ignore God; the moment you do you will feel lost and your growth as a Christian will be at a standstill.
