do u ever feel an intense desire to pray?

I mean, like, you could be sleeping or doing work or something and all of a sudden u have a sudden... urge to pray for someone?

I know a while back i had a dear Aunt which i love so much, and i remember praying for her all of a sudden because i couldnt get her out of my mind. I didnt protest to this and i asked God to help her any way he could. Later i found out she was really going through some changes in her life...

I know its good to pray for everyone, which i do..but sometimes, i geta sudden call from the Holy Spirit and i feel its my duty to pray for myself orsomeone or a situation....sometimes not just once or twice..but for weeks on end..and i dont even know why ALL the time

i know GOD wants us to communicate with him all the time....is this God's way of showing me i need to dedicate more time to prayer? Is he trying to help me understand the need of a humble heart?

i am just wondering...does this happen to anyone else?

today i went up in church..i stood and asked th paster for prayer...this time i was seeking prayerfor myself...hmm

Yeah i get this often too.

I think God is Calling all of us to have a deeper relationship with him and to spend more time with him. Prayer is power and it puts us in direct connection with God.

I've just binstudying the story in Luke chapter 7 about the centurion who's servent was sick and because of his love for his friend he asked Jesus to come and heal him.This is a short version from my view.But as Jesus was going to see him the centurion met him half way and said if you say the words he will be clean and Jesus said "as thou hast believed," "so be it done unto thee. And his servent was healed in the selfsame hour."

I thought that this shows us what can happen in prayer. That if we pray in faith, others can be healed.

true jesus sent his word and healed (ps 107:20) and send that word or word thru the power of prayer is awesome dont you agree, i need to pray more and more as each day goes by because the events of time that are ahead, maybe mike is right GOD is calling for a better relationship with HIM and his saints so we are required to seek HIM more often because only HE knows what will happen and when.......

Who wrote that? is that Salinger?
