Lesson 12: Prayer The Lord desires to hear the prayers of His faithful children and His eyes are watching out for them. What a great and wonderful blessing this is. When we pray to God, we must be humble and not self-righteous. Our Lord gave a parable which illustrates this requirement very well.

For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord." We must have faith in God and if we are faithful and obedient to Him then He will hear and answer our prayers, otherwise we will receive nothing. Jesus says in Mark 11:24, "Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them."
