Pray effectively.

James 1v5-8
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him. BUT let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind. For that person must not suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.

Our prayers are rendered useless if we ask with out faith in the power of our God. Lets evaluate our prayer life today and ask ourselves; are we truly believing God to come through with our requests? Are we continuing to worry about what we just asked God to do? Or are we trusting and finding peace in the strength of who He is? James states it plainly in verse seven, we can’t expect for our prayers to be answered if our faith is unstable. The Lord gives GENEROUSLY to those who ask in faith, so let us pray boldly and in confidence of the God who created the universe.
