Everything by Prayer Eugene Smith Sr

Prayer is one of the most important subjects in my life. It's the birthplace of kingdom power and productivity, and I believe we should never do anything without praying. We shouldn't embark on a new project, move forward in the marketplace, go forth in ministry, or try to function in any area of the 5-fold ministry until we have developed a prayer life. It's very important that we know the worth and value of prayer. In Psalm 127:1, the Bible says, "Except the Lord build the house, they that build labor in vain." Again, nothing should be done without prayer. How many of us have given our energy and affection to projects, ministries, or businesses only to realize in the middle of it, "I didn't pray," or "I didn't get an okay from the Lord and now it seems that my work, my labor, my affection, and my time has been wasted." Well, how do you know if the Lord is building your house? You pray about it. You must get in God's face and go before Him in prayer. You must talk to the Lord and get permission and direction from Him before you start anything. The method in which God models prayer will challenge your preexisting perception of what prayer really is. In the following chapters, I will explain what the Lord revealed to me as it relates to praying or having a conversation with God. It's simpler than you think! If you read Genesis, you will find that God initiated prayer in the Garden of Eden with Adam. This book explains what the Bible tells us about prayer.
