Pray More
Dream Date: 4/12/20
Today’s Date: 8/14/24
I was dreaming I was in the church I grew up in. I was sitting in a pew. The Pastor said “Do you want to know the key to grow spiritually? Come close to hear.” I moved closer with some others. He said “Pray more and ask for the desire to pray more.”
Obviously, the Bible is the place to go to hear, read, and learn about prayer.
Prayer is spiritual communication between man and God, a two-way relationship in which man should not only talk to God but also listen to Him. Prayer to God is like a child’s conversation with his father. It is natural for a child to ask his father for the things he needs.
There are many promises in God’s Word to encourage us to pray, such as: “He shall call upon me and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honor him” (Psalm 91:15); “And it shall come to pass that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear” (Isaiah 65:24); “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you” (Matthew 7:7). The Scriptures tell us that we are to pray for one another and also assure us that God hears and answers prayer.
When you receive Christ into your heart, you become a child of God and have the privilege of talking to Him in prayer at any time about anything. The Christian life is a personal relationship to God through Jesus Christ. And best of all, it is a relationship that will last for all eternity.

I believe this was a dream from the Holy Spirit. I believe the purpose of this dream was simply to encourage me to follow this simple plan for success.
I do pray, and have asked God on occassion for the desire to pray more. However, I can’t say that is a normal request of God.
There are different types of prayer depending on the circumstance your in. Sometimes I just toss up a quick prayer. Usually my prayer time is while I am driving to work. I often pray for my family, my wife, friends, my church leaders, country leaders, and whatever God brings to my heart.
Here is a quick 3 minute blessing prayer by notable Author, Dream Interpreter, and former founder of Streams Ministries International, John Paul Jackson.
