prayer solidifies our relationship to God
God desires to hear from His children. He listens to every one of our prayers. And because He hears us, we know we have the requests which we have asked of Him (1 John 5:14-15). The Bible tells us that prayer is powerful and effective (James 5:16b) and it changes lives. We believe prayer can not only change our circumstances, but God uses it to change our heart. We believe that the prayer of the righteous accomplishes much; therefore, we seek to make prayer our first response rather than our last resort.
