  Hello, and welcome to divine five one five,
• 1:08
  today's episode.
• 1:10
  Today, I wanna empower you by sharing why
• 1:13
  prayer is essential.
• 1:15
  The scripture I'm coming from today is James
• 1:18
  five
• 1:19
  sixteen.
• 1:20
  The prayer of a righteous person is powerful
• 1:23
  and effective.
• 1:26
  Prayer is not just important
• 1:29
  to the believer.
• 1:30
  It is essential.
• 1:33
  Without prayer, our faith weakens,
• 1:35
  our perspective becomes cloudy,
• 1:38
  and our strength
• 1:40
  fades.
• 1:42
  Prayer connects us to God's wisdom,
• 1:44
  peace, and direction.
• 1:48
  It moves heaven,
• 1:50
  shifts atmospheres,
• 1:52
  and changes
• 1:54
  hearts.
• 1:56
  Prayer is how we stay spiritually alive and
• 1:59
  alert.
• 2:01
  God invites us to partner with him through
• 2:03
  prayer
• 2:05
  because it releases his will into our lives
• 2:08
  and into the world.
• 2:10
  When we pray,
• 2:12
  we are not just speaking.
• 2:14
  We are engaging
• 2:16
  in spiritual
• 2:17
  authority.
• 2:19
  Prayer keeps us from drifting and reminds us
• 2:23
  that god is our essential
• 2:26
  source.
• 2:28
  Let's pray.
• 2:30
  Dear Lord,
• 2:32
  help me never take prayer lightly.
• 2:36
  Remind me daily
• 2:38
  that I need you.
• 2:40
  Let prayer be the foundation
• 2:43
  of my faith
• 2:45
  and
• 2:46
  all of my decisions.
• 2:49
  Let me never underestimate
• 2:50
  what happens when I come before you,
• 2:53
  but trust that in all,
• 2:56
  you have everything
• 2:57
  under control.
• 2:59
  Thank you
• 3:01
  that you draw me closer
• 3:03
  and give me the opportunity
• 3:05
  to connect with you
• 3:07
  every time I pray.
• 3:10
  In Jesus' name, amen.
• 3:18
