Building a lifestyle of consistent prayer

However, a child may be born sick, a friend hurt badly in a car wreck, or someone finds out they have an incurable illness just to say.

The Quran suggests that those who are struggling can ‘seek help through patience and prayer. Indeed, Allah is with the patient,’ (Surah 2:153). This highlights that those adherents who dedicate time to being attuned with themselves and their natural surroundings through Salat will be brought closer to Allah, for he is with the patient. Salat is lived out by Prophet Muhammad during the Laylatul-Qadr, the night where Angel Jibril first revealed the Qur’an to Muhammad. Muhammad then received the instruction of Salat and guided adherents to follow his example and complete "prayer…for Allah".

For this strategy Screwtape instructs Wormwood in leading his patient astray by convincing him “to estimate the value of each prayer by [his] successes in producing the desired feeling…”(Lewis 17). This type of prayer is especially dangerous because it is superficial compared to sincere, true prayer. Screwtape illustrates how even in the middle of something holy and moral like prayer, it is easy for people to deviate from the true purpose of prayer, and from God. Prayer is essential for growing spiritually, as it is a way for one to know and communicate with God. If prayer just becomes a means society relies on to achieve a certain sort of feeling the true meaning of prayer is lost.

His theology of contemplative prayer contains the man’s real life that consist continuous search for communion with god also with the ways to search god into own. For Merton prayer has one function and that is to bring man to a personal awareness of his union with god but the man will achieve this awareness if he discovers his true self. The awakening of the presence of god within man is really the result of man’s surrender of his being to god by the man entering into the deepest level of himself and then passing through the centre to his true self where he discovers the freedom that his as a son of god where man is no longer conscious of self but having transformed his consciousness now recognizes himself as a self in god. As this prayer can make people more aware than before of the significance and the value of prayer in his life.

As Screwtape advises his nephew, "When they meant to pray for courage, let them really be trying to feel brave. When they say they are praying for forgiveness, let them try to feel forgiven. Teach them to estimate the value of each prayer by its success in producing the desired feeling, and never let them suspect how much success or failure of that kind depends on whether they are well or ill, fresh or tired, at the moment" (Lewis, 16). The emotional rush that occurs when drawing near to the Holy Spirit is a feeling almost every Christian has experienced. New believers tend to use this feeling as their sole motivation for prayer, study, and worship.

Prayer Changes Things "When you get in a spot, you don't seem like you know your way out, when you get confused, if you feel like you can't find the way, if you're feeling like you just ain't got no answers... don't be ashamed to pray and don't ever be too proud to pray because prayer, prayer changes things." - Steve Harvey Steve Harvey said his mother taught him this lesson, and I'm glad to be including it in this list of uplifting quotes because it is a powerful one! Prayer has been shown to help people handle difficult emotions, which means it can help you transcend a negative mood and move into a more positive one. Prayer helps you feel more connected to a higher power. It helps you clear your mind enough to stop focusing on your problems and start hearing or seeing some solutions to them.

He prays nearly all the time, day and night, and in such agony of mind that I do not know what to make of it. Sometimes he cannot even stand on his knees, but will lie prostrate on the floor, and groan and pray in a manner that quite astonishes me.' I said to the brother, 'I understand it: please keep still. It will all come out right; he will surely prevail.'

Islam is a religion that is prominent throughout the whole world, specifically the Middle East. Islam started when the man Muhammad started having visions telling him of clarity, he would go and meditate at mount HIra, then one day he was visited by Archangel Gabriel and told him to recite in the name of your lord, this started the many ideas and beliefs that would become the Qur’an. While overwhelmed by the event he found support in his family and a small group of people, but his strong monotheistic beliefs angered the merchants because they believed that the gods of trade protected them and this belief that there was one god angered them, so Muhammad was ostracized in his tribe, the only protection that he had was from his wife and uncle,

Pal Buddhist develops student’s spiritual growth through their transformative learning to achieve self-actualization, purpose. A student on average will witness poverty locally, internationally, digitally or face to face in their everyday life this may result in questioning of the meaning of life for people in poverty and their own meaning. Understanding the concept of poverty spiritually and materialistic in the Tibetan tradition is to understand as an individual matter, social matter and religious matter. In the Tibetan tradition, when approached with poverty it teaches the “third aspect of ethical conduct in the eightfold path and involves livelihoods which do not break the undertakings of precepts such as not harming life or taking what is not freely given.” (Morgan, 2004)
