In part 3 of the Out With the Old in With the New series, we learn that the importance of a life devoted to prayer for believers, highlighting prayer as the most powerful tool for navigating life. It explains that God respects human free will and will only intervene in our lives if invited through prayer. Prayer allows God to act on our behalf, not because He is subject to us, but because of His love and our willingness to choose life over death.
☛ Lord, Jesus, I invite you into my life. I admit that I am a sinner and have sinned against you. I believe that Jesus is Lord and that He died and rose for my sins and my life. I ask You now, Holy Spirit, to come into my life, to teach me, to lead me, and to guide me. Lord, you say if anyone lacks the Holy Spirit and the evidence of speaking in tongues, all they have to do is ask You, and You will give it to them. So, Lord, we ask you for the Holy Spirit and the evidence of speaking in tongue. In Jesus’s name, I pray. Amen.
