Next Sunday we will finish up our month of study of prayer with the story of Hannah from the Old Testament. Hannah had not been able to have children, although she very much wanted a son. She prayed to God at the tabernacle, which was in Shiloh at that time. God answered her prayer and she had a son, who became an important spiritual leader of Israel—Samuel, the last of the judges and the first of the prophets who spoke for God.
We can pray to God about anything. Even though God knows what we need, like our daily bread (food), He still wants us to pray to Him about our needs. Jesus taught us this in the Model Prayer. We can also pray to God about things we want. God has not promised to give us all the things we want, but He sometimes will give us “the desires of our heart.” But there are some things which we really shouldn’t pray for. The Bible talks about “asking amiss” for things which are really not good for us, or which God has commanded us to avoid. Selfish prayers are never a good idea.
We’ll look more at the kinds of things we should and should not pray for Sunday. You’ll want to be there, and you’ll want to bring a friend!
