Here’s today’s prayer suggestion — one the world certainly needs right now. Pray through it with all your heart, soul and mind.
Praying Hands
Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. (John 15:13)
We continue our PRAYER-O-RAMA 2021 festivities with a little story about the painting to the right …
Two struggling art students, Albrecht Dürer and Franz Knigstein, were having trouble making ends meet. Albrecht came up with a plan: he would work to support Franz’s studies and then when Franz had sold enough art to support both of them, Albrecht would quit working and go back to school. Franz liked the idea but insisted on being the first to work.
The HOW of Prayer
It’s PRAYER-O-RAMA 2021 here on GUWG. So far, we’ve looked at the WHO, WHAT, WHERE, WHEN and WHY of prayer. Today, we’ll look at the HOW.
So, how should we pray? First, let’s start with how NOT to pray:
- Don’t do it for show. Jesus said: “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men.” (Matthew 6:5)
- Don’t babble. Jesus also said: “And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like the pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words.” (Matthew 6:7)
So how SHOULD we pray?

The WHO of Prayer
The one concern of the devil is to keep Christians from praying. He fears nothing from prayerless studies, prayerless work, prayerless religion. He laughs at our toil, mocks at our wisdom, but trembles when we pray. (Samuel Chadwick)
