How do you respond to the frequently heard critique that prayer is “not enough”? How can prayer instead be action of the most practical kind?
-
Prayer is most important. Prayer is where you can tell God of all of your troubles also in prayer you can stand in the gap for others. Prayer is talking to God so I know that it is the one of first you need, and it is enough.
-
I believe that prayer is action it is the starting point in any situation. Through prayer God can move in the situation and lead us to know any actions that we should or should not take. He can make the crooked path straight and put the right people in place. Prayer is always the right first step.
-
I will now respond that it is enough. I used to think it wasn’t enough. I always thought people needed money or resources in addition to prayer. I can make an effort to make it an action. To not be afraid that I really don’t know how to pray that well for others especially. When I say I will pray for someone, to really mean it and not have it be just words.
-
My power is very limited, but God’s is unlimited, wise and just.
-
We often hear that Prayer is “not enough” because, after their continued praying, they don’t see the change they anticipated. Further, some don’t feel “thoughts and prayers” make any difference at all.
As a believer who has experienced God’s presence and support in my life constantly, I know the most significant thing we can do is pray. God can do more than I can do, so I want His help. However, Prayer is not enough if we are not doing what we can to help. Praying should never be an excuse for not moving with any action.
