| Prayer is a way of drawing closer to God, finding solutions to dilemmas and problems, and receiving forgiveness.
We pray in order to prove our belief in God, because he will do as he has promised and bless our lives. Prayer is for our own sakes - when we pray and ask something of God we are in fact strengthening our belief that only he can fill the lack in us.
Believers hold that prayer will create further abundance – of happiness, peace and all good. When we make an effort to pray we gain abundance in this world and in the world to come.
Prayer can heal us from sin.
Prayer is not always fulfilled. Some believe that the more we pray the more we increase our chances of receiving our prayers. And sometimes it is to our benefit that we do not receive what we pray for right now, because perhaps what we are asking for will work against us.
