(Daily prayer follows after this short introduction)

What kind of prayers does God listen to?

Prayers for strength...requests for good health... for healing... for a happy marriage... help for a loved one... help for your finances... for a better life...a stable life...a peaceful life... to save your relationship...find someone special for you...to deal with any personal problem... help you with your fears... your anxieties...your loneliness...help you control your emotions (such as anger, hate, jealousy, envy, apathy, depression...etc.)...your disappointments...addictions (whether it's drugs, alcoholism, obsessive spending...etc.)...??

What if I were to tell you that He listens to none of that, would it shock you or even surprise you?

I hope not.

First, God listens to your heartfelt desire to communicate with Him because you love Him as your Father; words without faithful love for Him mean nothing...so speaking to God because you want something for yourself means nothing...

Secondly, when you love God, you don't "pray" to Him, like some kind of formality...communicate with Him as someone you genuinely love...

This is what Daily Communication Prayer to God is all about; to teach you how to communicate with the Lord the way he wants to hear from you...

Good Day Father!

This morning, I looked at my Christmas tree Father, all lit and beautiful, all decorated...a fun expression of joy...

In my admiration of this magnificent tree that has adorned my home this holiday season, I am inspired by your creation Father to declare in this morning's daily prayer to you:

By looking at this wonderful pine tree, all decorated by the ornaments made by other people to enjoy...

That you Lord are good...you have made us creative...

We have powerful imaginations...

You have inspired us and lead us throughout the ages to develop...

Lord, you have taken us out of the natural ignorance of this world, and to follow your ways of genius...

We have developed and progressed...

It hasn't been an easy progress...

The Evil One has placed turmoil in our evolution, always trying to cut us off from you Father...

The Evil One has delayed our progress through wars and petty misunderstandings...sometimes placing ignorant people to unknowingly (even knowingly) lead the world backwards...

(Read about Satan's ultra-secret weapons he uses against you...)

But you are always there Lord to lead us...

You inspire us to follow the uncomplicated way to life and to enjoy our creativity...

Your Ultimate Champion of the world, Jesus, mentors us to the simple ways of faithful contact with you...

You let us tune-in to you, to reach you spiritually...

And you do remain faithful to those who are faithful to you in Christ...

To those of us who agree to remain in your covenant you make the challenges of life less daunting...

For both faithful and unfaithful must undergo the challenges of life...but the burden of those who are faithful is light, the fruits of their labors are better enjoyed...

I know it Father, I have experienced it...

This is why Lord I declare that you forgive my sins, and to allow me to continue in my progress with your blessings and favor...

Let your increase in my life equal all the needles of all the pine trees standing in the world today...

Let the fragrance of your blessings be as wonderful as the fragrance of a Christmas pine tree...

Thank You Lord...
