Sermon Title: “The Power of Prayer: Connecting with God”

Introduction:
Prayer is more than just a religious ritual—it is a powerful, life-changing conversation with our Heavenly Father. It’s the lifeline that connects us to God’s heart, opens doors for miracles, and strengthens our faith. Today, we’ll explore what prayer truly means, why it is essential, and how it can transform our lives.

1.The Purpose of Prayer
Scripture Reference: Philippians 4:6-7
Prayer is an opportunity to bring our needs, burdens, and praises before God. It is a time to seek His guidance, express gratitude, and align our hearts with His will. It is through prayer that we develop a deeper relationship with God, experiencing His peace and presence.

2. Prayer as a Source of Strength and Comfort
Scripture Reference: Psalm 46:1
In times of trouble, prayer is our refuge and strength. When we pour out our hearts to God, we find comfort and encouragement. Prayer reminds us that we are not alone—God is our ever-present help in times of need.
