Teach Us To Pray

March 4, 2019

By Rafael Martinez / Greater Heights UMC

Orar es hablar con Dios. El cristiano ora para tener una comunicación personal y directa con su creador, de esta manera podemos conocer mejor la voluntad de Dios para nosotros y esta espiritualmente más capacitados. En la biblia tenemos muchos ejemplos de oraciones, en diferentes circunstancias y momentos. Por lo que para orar solo tienes que abrir tu boca o tu mente y expresar tu amor y agradecimiento a Dios por todo lo que recibes, sea bueno o malo. Puedes expresar tus inquietudes y problemas, no para que Dios se entere, porque él lo sabe todo, sino para que él sepa que tu confianza y seguridad están en él. Puedes presentar la situación de otras personas que necesitan que la misericordia de Dios llegue a sus vidas. Puedes también solo hacer silencio y tratar de escuchar en el interior de tu mente la voz de Dios a través de tus reflexiones. Puedes usar la oración para pedir a Dios que te de capacidades espirituales para servirle a él y a los demás con mayor efectividad. La oración es un arma con la que podemos enfrentar de nuestras debilidades, temores y alcanzar la fortaleza que viene de Dios.

Translation
To pray is to talk with God. The Christian prays to have a personal and direct communication with his creator, in this way we can better known God’s will for us which makes us spiritually more capable. In the bible we have many examples of prayers, in different circumstances and times. To pray you just have to open your mouth or your mind and express your love and gratitude to God for everything you receive, be it good or bad. You can express your concerns and problems, not so that God finds out, because he knows everything, but so that He knows that your confidence and security are in him. You can present the situation of other people who need the mercy of God to come into their lives. You can also just make silence and try to listen to the voice of God through your thoughts inside your mind. You can use prayer to ask God to give you spiritual abilities to serve him and others more effectively. Prayer is a weapon with which we can face our weaknesses, fears and reach the strength that comes from God.
