Never underestimate the power of prayer. Scripture never portrays prayer as a sentimental habit or a vague spiritual exercise—it is a blood-bought privilege purchased by CHRIST Himself (Hebrews 4:14–16). Prayer is not powerful because we are strong, but because GOD is sovereign, holy, and mighty to act (Daniel 2:20–21; Ephesians 3:20).
One small, sincere cry to GOD can alter the entire course of a life—not because our words contain magic, but because GOD hears the repentant (Psalm 34:17–18) and moves according to HIS perfect will (1 John 5:14–15). Yet Scripture also warns that the prayers of the unrepentant are not heard (Proverbs 15:29; Isaiah 59:1–2). Sin always separates; repentance always restores.
So let this truth strike the conscience:
If you live in cherished sin, your need is not merely to pray—it is to repent and turn to CHRIST in faith (Mark 1:15). And when you do, GOD delights to hear you. One humble appeal to HIM, offered with a heart surrendered to CHRIST, can indeed change everything. Not because prayer is powerful in itself, but because GOD is.
Seek HIM while HE may be found (Isaiah 55:6).
Forsake sin.
Run to CHRIST.
And know this: GOD takes the smallest cry of a repentant sinner and writes eternity with it.
