Oração
A oração é o fôlego da vida cristã. É conversa íntima com Deus, pedido de socorro, ação de graças e intercessão. Jesus ensinou seus discípulos a orar e praticou a oração constantemente.
O convite a orar
Jesus disse: pedi e recebereis, buscai e achareis, batei e abrir-se-vos-á. Deus convida seus filhos a orar com fé e persistência.
Ask, and you will receive. Search, and you will find. Knock, and the door will be opened for you.
Ask, and you will receive. Search, and you will find. Knock, and the door will be opened for you. Everyone who asks will receive. Everyone who searches will find. And the door will be opened for everyone who knocks.
As bad as you are, you still know how to give good gifts to your children. But your heavenly Father is even more ready to give good things to people who ask.
If you have faith when you pray, you will be given whatever you ask for."
If you have faith when you pray, you will be given whatever you ask for."
So I tell you to ask and you will receive, search and you will find, knock and the door will be opened for you. Everyone who asks will receive, everyone who searches will find, and the door will be opened for everyone who knocks.
Jesus told his disciples a story about how they should keep on praying and never give up:
In a town there was once a judge who didn’t fear God or care about people. In that same town there was a widow who kept going to the judge and saying, "Make sure that I get fair treatment in court."
For a while the judge refused to do anything. Finally, he said to himself, "Even though I don’t fear God or care about people, I will help this widow because she keeps on bothering me. If I don’t help her, she will wear me out."
The Lord said:
Think about what that crooked judge said. Won’t God protect his chosen ones who pray to him day and night? Won’t he be concerned for them? He will surely hurry and help them. But when the Son of Man comes, will he find on this earth anyone with faith?
Everything you ask for in prayer will be yours, if you only have faith.
Everything you ask for in prayer will be yours, if you only have faith.

Orar em nome de Jesus
Tudo o que pedirmos em nome de Jesus, Ele fará, para que o Pai seja glorificado no Filho. A oração em seu nome tem autoridade.
Ask me, and I will do whatever you ask. This way the Son will bring honor to the Father.

Ask me, and I will do whatever you ask. This way the Son will bring honor to the Father. I will do whatever you ask me to do.
Stay joined to me and let my teachings become part of you. Then you can pray for whatever you want, and your prayer will be answered.
You did not choose me. I chose you and sent you out to produce fruit, the kind of fruit that will last. Then my Father will give you whatever you ask for in my name.
You have not asked for anything in this way before, but now you must ask in my name. Then it will be given to you, so you will be completely happy.
Orar sem cessar
A Bíblia nos exorta a orar em todo tempo. A oração constante nos mantém conectados com Deus e nos fortalece espiritualmente.

A oração do modelo
Jesus ensinou a oração do Pai Nosso como modelo. Ela cobre adoração, submissão, provisão, perdão, proteção e louvor.
You should pray like this:
Our Father in heaven,
help us to honor
your name.
Come and set up
your kingdom,
so that everyone on earth
will obey you,
as you are obeyed
in heaven.
Give us our food for today.
Forgive us for doing wrong,
as we forgive others.
Keep us from being tempted
and protect us from evil.
So Jesus told them, "Pray in this way:
‘Father, help us
to honor your name.
Come and set up
your kingdom.
Give us each day
the food we need.
Forgive our sins,
as we forgive everyone
who has done wrong to us.
And keep us
from being tempted.’ "
When you pray, don’t be like those show-offs who love to stand up and pray in the synagogues and on the street corners. They do this just to look good. I can assure you that they already have their reward.
When you pray, go into a room alone and close the door. Pray to your Father in private. He knows what is done in private and will reward you.

Oração eficaz
A oração do justo é poderosa e eficaz. Ore com fé, sem duvidar, pois quem duvida é como onda do mar levada pelo vento.
If you have sinned, you should tell each other what you have done. Then you can pray for one another and be healed. The prayer of an innocent person is powerful, and it can help a lot.

If any of you need wisdom, you should ask God, and it will be given to you. God is generous and won’t correct you for asking. But when you ask for something, you must have faith and not doubt. Anyone who doubts is like an ocean wave tossed around in a storm. If you are that kind of person, you can’t make up your mind, and you surely can’t be trusted. So don’t expect the Lord to give you anything at all.

But without faith no one can please God. We must believe that God is real and rewards everyone who searches for him.
He is forever able to save the people he leads to God, because he always lives to speak to God for them.

Three times I begged the Lord to make this suffering go away. But he replied, "My gift of undeserved grace is all you need. My power is strongest when you are weak." So if Christ keeps giving me his power, I will gladly brag about how weak I am.
In certain ways we are weak, but the Spirit is here to help us. For example, when we don’t know what to pray for, the Spirit prays for us in ways that cannot be put into words. All of our thoughts are known to God. He can understand what is in the mind of the Spirit, as the Spirit prays for God’s people.

of the dead
had coiled around me,
and death had set a trap
in my path.

when I called out to you,
but from your temple
you heard me
and answered my prayer.

to the Lord,
as you would pour water
out of a jug.
Beg him to save your people,
who are starving to death
at every street crossing.
Instead, we should think
about the way we are living,
and turn back to the Lord.
When we lift our hands
in prayer to God in heaven,

and say,

with all your heart.
Start crying and mourning!
Go without eating.
Turn to the Lord!
He can still be found.

or remains faithful.

and let our sins melt us away.

about my own nation
or about what I have done?

each of your concerns.

in a scorching desert.

who follow your commands
from deep in their hearts

from your commands.

everyone who is faithful
to be his very own,
and he answers my prayers.
Each morning you listen
to my prayer,
as I bring my requests to you
and wait for your reply.
God cannot stand the prayers
of anyone who disobeys
his Law.
Everything will soon come to an end. So be serious and be sensible enough to pray.
