Prayer is both a communication and an encounter with God concerning many things. The Psalms help us to see the great variety of types of prayer. Today we're only going to look at two types in the Psalms. I just want you to start exploring your own prayers based on the Psalms.

The Holy Spirit proclaims to us the things of Christ, which are the things of the Father. When we hear and understand these things, we glorify the Son, which in essence means that to understand Him will always lead to worship Him.

We note also, and very importantly, that the Holy Spirit speaks the word of God...

The main theme of the ministry of the Holy Spirit is to proclaim to us the things of Christ, which are the things of the Father.

Joh 16:14-15
