Many Christians feel defeated in their prayer lives. To pray even five-to-seven minutes seems like and eternity, and their minds wander much of that time. 'I guess it's me,' many conclude. 'I'm just a second-rate Christian.' No, if you are indwelt by the Holy Spirit and generally seeking to live in obedience to God's Word, then the problem likely isn't you, but your method... Let the words of Scripture be the words of your prayers... By praying through a passage of Scripture, you'll find yourself praying about most of 'the same old things,' but in brand new ways. You'll likely be able to turn to any part of the Bible and pray through it.
