example of simple prayer
Heavenly Father,
Your Word says, "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God" (Matt. 5:8). I want to enter into Your presence. I want to be in the place where You meet me. Guide me to that place. Forgive me for being careless and unthinking in the way I approach You. I acknowledge that You are a holy and righteous God. I receive the cleansing of my sins through the blood of Jesus. I worship You in humility and love. Thank you for the privilege of being able to enter with confidence into the place where You dwell, because of the atonement that Your Son has made on my behalf. I pray this in the name of Jesus, the Lamb of God who takes away all our sin. Amen.
Ask yourself:
1. In what attitude or manner do I approach God in prayer?
2. Am I being casual about the sin in my life, without regard for God's holiness?
3. Do I think I can get God to hear my prayers by doing good deeds---or do I come to Him through Christ alone?
