2 Corinthians 4:17 (KJV) For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a

Why We Don't Pray? PDF Print E-mail

How do you feel when there is a prayer meeting? Most people blow it off and don’t think they need to attend. Why is that? If God has invited us to pray, promises all kinds of help when we pray, promises blessings if we pray, and then commands us to pray – shouldn’t we be “on ready” to pray?
