God is not looking for perfect prayers he is looking for genuine, humble, love filled prayers. Prayers that we truly believe in, not just empty mumbling to check the prayer box for the day. But a devoted, honest conversation with the Lord. Don't get discouraged when you hear someone else pray, and think wow that was so good I wish I could pray like that. The Lord does not need fancy prayers for you to come to him. The closer we get to God and the deeper our relationship is to the Lord, our prayer life can begin to look and sound different. This doesn't mean how we pray now is not good enough, it just simply means our relationship with the Lord is growing and as it does we will begin to see changes. As long as you are genuine in your words, the Lord will hear you.
Prayer:
Lord we thank you for your goodness. Help us to not pray purely for routine. Help us to be humble and genuine in all our prayers. Forgive us for the times we were just walking in a routine. Fill us with a desire to pray and talk with you, in Jesus name we pray Amen.
Verse:
I call upon you, for you will answer me, O God; incline your ear to me; hear my words.
Psalm 17:6 ESV
