“The minimum that God requires of man is that man be able to open his heart to Him. If man gives his true heart to God and speaks what is truly in his heart, then God is willing to work in him. What God desires is not the twisted heart of man, but a pure and honest heart. If man does not speak from his heart to God, then God will not move his heart or work in him. Therefore, the crux of prayer is to speak to God from your heart, telling Him your shortcomings or rebellious disposition, laying yourself completely open before Him; only then will God be interested in your prayers, or else He will hide His face from you” (“Concerning the Practice of Prayer”).
Worship Songs About Prayer | 932 There Is No True Service Without True Prayer
Verse 1
Prayer is true communion with God, has lots of meaning.
It can be seen from people’s prayers
God they’re directly serving.
Pre-chorus
If you take prayer as ceremonial,
then God you won’t serve well.
Chorus
Without prayer, you can’t work.
Prayer brings service, it brings work.
If you’re a person who serves God,
but you’ve never been serious,
not devoted when you pray,
you will fail in serving this way.
Verse 2
It can be said that if your prayers
aren’t true or earnest,
then God won’t count you, you’ll be ignored.
The Holy Spirit won’t work in you.
Pre-chorus
If you take prayer as ceremonial,
then God you won’t serve well.
Chorus
Without prayer, you can’t work.
Prayer brings service, it brings work.
If you’re a person who serves God,
but you’ve never been serious,
not devoted when you pray,
you will fail in serving this way.
Bridge
If you often come to God and pray,
it proves you take Him seriously.
If you work yourself and do not pray,
and behind His back do that and this,
you’re doing your own thing,
(you are not serving God,)
you’re doing your own work.
(Condemned then, are you not?)
Verse 3
It seems like God you have not blasphemed,
done no disturbing,
but doing your thing is interrupting.
By nature, you resist God.
Chorus
Without prayer, you can’t work.
Prayer brings service, it brings work.
If you’re a person who serves God,
but you’ve never been serious,
not devoted when you pray,
you will fail in serving this way.
