Pray In the Spirit
God wants to help each of us with our weaknesses. We all have problems and God has set up a plan to help us.
It won't surprise you to know that a big part of that solution is PRAYER. When we pray, God works. But, the hard thing sometimes is to know what to pray. That's what Paul was talking about in Romans 8. He said,
"the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes (prays) for us with groans that words cannot express. And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit,...and we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him..." (vs.26-28)
You see, God wants to help us...and one of the main ways is that he helps us pray. We do not know what we should pray for...but God does! So, he HELPS us pray. The Holy Spirit is our helper.
Here's a few more verses to read and consider:
1 Corinthians 14:1,2 and 15
Jude 23
Acts 19:1-6
God can help you pray in language you know, and He can also help you pray in languages that only HE knows. "Really?" you ask. Well, Jesus said, "With God, all things are possible." (Matthew 19:26)
