Levels of prayer

Scripture also shows us that there are different levels of prayer. We can engage in most of the kinds of prayer listed above, but with practice can move beyond immature exercise of the principles into a deeper and more mature expression.

Jesus Himself spoke of different ‘kinds’ or ‘levels’ of prayer when He said:

“Ask,

and it will be given to you;

seek,

and you will find;

knock,

and it will be opened to you.”

(Matt 7:7 NKJV)

Beyond this we will also be called upon to add fasting to our prayer, and at times enter into seasons of much more intense wrestling and warfare.
