Unanswered prayer directly relates to how we pray and to whom we pray.
In this episode, we highlight the key principles Jesus taught about prayer. Rather than simply directing our prayers towards a vague, impersonal divine entity, Jesus emphasized the importance of addressing "Our Father" - the personal, knowable God. Jesus taught His disciples to align their desires with God's will, saying "Your will be done." This suggests that authentic prayer is not merely a list of requests, but a means of conforming our hearts and minds to God's purposes.
Furthermore, Jesus linked prayer with the practice of forgiveness, teaching His disciples to ask for forgiveness "as we have forgiven our debtors." This underscores the idea that our words in prayer must be reflected in the way we live. Jesus' coupling of prayer with fasting, indicating that these two spiritual disciplines should go hand-in-hand.
Ultimately, when we pray in the manner Jesus taught, we are not approaching God as a magical genie who grants wishes, but rather as the merciful and kind heavenly King and Comforter, whom we can know and with whom we can have a meaningful, personal relationship. This deeper understanding of prayer, grounded in the teachings of Jesus, is presented as a vital aspect of the Christian spiritual life.
