Matthew 6:31-32
"So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' For the pagans run after all these things, and YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER knows that you need them."
Sometimes prayer is not about asking for anything!
People often associate prayer with NEED & the FULFILLMENT of that need!
Sadly, we always seem to focus on NEED, instead of RELATIONSHIP!
God
instituted prayer as part of the Christian Daily Life, so that we could have personal, intimate conversations with Him in order to get to know Him better. (He already knows everything about us!)
We already know that He wants to meet our needs, but there are other things about His character that He wants to reveal to us through conversation.
Therefore, next time you approach God in prayer, be mindful, that He already knows what you are in need of & that's why He wants to reveal other areas of Himself to you!
"OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD MAY HAVE BEGUN DUE TO A NEED, BUT IT SHOULD NEVER REMAIN AT THE NECESSITY STAGE!"
