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.
"Keep asking God for what you need. If you do that, he will give it to you. Confidently keep expecting God to give you the things that you need, and he will give them to you. It will be like [MET] looking for what you need and finding it. Keep on praying persistently to God. Then God will answer you. It will be like [MET] knocking on a door in order to enter a room. And the way will be opened {God will open the way} for you to get what you pray for.
"Keep asking God for what you need. If you do that, he will give it to you. Confidently keep expecting God to give you the things that you need, and he will give them to you. It will be like [MET] looking for what you need and finding it. Keep on praying persistently to God. Then God will answer you. It will be like [MET] knocking on a door in order to enter a room. And the way will be opened {God will open the way} for you to get what you pray for. Remember that God will give things to everyone who continues to ask him for them. He will give things to whoever confidently keeps asking. He will open the way for people to get the things that they keep persistently praying for.
You, who are evil, know how to give good things to your children. So God, your Father who is in heaven, will certainly give good things to the people who ask him."
In addition to that, whenever you ask God for something when you pray to him, if you believe that he will give it to you, you will receive it from him."
In addition to that, whenever you ask God for something when you pray to him, if you believe that he will give it to you, you will receive it from him."
So I tell you this: Keep asking God for what you need. If you do that, he will give it to you (pl). Confidently keep expecting God to give you the things that you need, and he will give them to you [MET]. It will be like looking for what you need and finding it. Keep on praying urgently to God. Then God will answer you. It will be like knocking on a door so that God will open the way for you to get what you pray for. Remember that God will give things to everyone who continues to ask him for them. He will give things to whoever confidently keeps asking. He will open the way for people to get the things that they keep urgently praying for.
Jesus told his disciples a parable to teach them that they always ought to pray confidently and not be discouraged if God does not immediately answer their prayers. He said, "In a certain city there was a judge who did not revere God, and did not care about people, either. There was a widow in that city who kept coming to him, saying, ‘Please decide what is just in the dispute between me and the man who is opposing me in court!’ For a long time the judge refused to help her. But later he thought to himself, ‘I do not revere God and I do not care about people, but this widow keeps bothering me! So I will make sure that she is treated justly. If I do not do that, she will exhaust me by continually coming to me!’" Then the Lord Jesus said, "Even though the judge was not a righteous man, think carefully about what he said! Similarly, ◄God will certainly show that what you have done has been right!/will God not show that what you have done has been right?► [RHQ] He will do this for you whom he has chosen. He will do this for you who pray earnestly to him night and day, asking him to help you. He may delay helping you. But I tell you, some day he will show that what you did was right, and he will do it quickly. But when I, the one who came from heaven, return to earth, ◄there may not be many people who will still be trusting that I will vindicate them (OR, who will still be trusting in me)./will there be many people who will still be trusting that I will vindicate them (OR, who will still be trusting in me)?► [RHQ]"
So I tell you, whenever you ask God for something when you pray, believe that you will receive it, and, if you do, God will do it for you.
So I tell you, whenever you ask God for something when you pray, believe that you will receive it, and, if you do, God will do it for you.
So I tell you, whenever you ask God for something when you pray, believe that you will receive it, and, if you do, God will do it for you.
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.
And whatever you, using my authority, ask me to do, I will do it, in order that I can show you how great my Father is.
And whatever you, using my authority, ask me to do, I will do it, in order that I can show you how great my Father is. Anything that you ask my Father to do, anything that you ask with my authority [MTY], I will do."
And whatever you, using my authority, ask me to do, I will do it, in order that I can show you how great my Father is. Anything that you ask my Father to do, anything that you ask with my authority [MTY], I will do."
If you remain having a close relationship with me and you keep living in accordance with my message, you can ask God to do anything for you, and he will do it.
You did not decide to become my disciples. Instead, I chose you, so that you would do many things that please him [MET]. The results of what you do will last forever. I also chose you so that my Father will do for you whatever you, using my authority, ask him to do [MTY].
Up to the present time, using my authority you have not asked God to do anything for you [MTY]. Now keep asking him for things that you need. If you do that, you will receive them, and then you will be completely joyful.
Orar sem cessar
A Bíblia nos exorta a orar em todo tempo. A oração constante nos mantém conectados com Deus e nos fortalece espiritualmente.
pray continually,
pray continually,
Be joyful ◄at all times/always►, pray continually, and thank God ◄in all circumstances/regardless of what happens►. God wants you to behave like that because of what Christ Jesus has done for you (OR, because you have a close relationship with Christ Jesus).
As you are doing that, keep praying to God at all times, and requesting him to do things for you and others; and let God’s Spirit direct what you pray. For this purpose, always be spiritually alert/watchful, and ◄always be persistent in/never quit► praying for all God’s people.

Pray to God persistently, and as you pray, be alert and be thanking God.
Rejoice because you are confidently awaiting what God will do for you! When you suffer, be patient! Keep praying and never give up!
A oração do modelo
Jesus ensinou a oração do Pai Nosso como modelo. Ela cobre adoração, submissão, provisão, perdão, proteção e louvor.
So pray things like this: Father, you who are in heaven, we (exc) desire that you be honored/revered {that people honor/revere you}. We (exc) desire that people let you rule over their lives. We(exc) want people who live on the earth to do what you desire, as those who live in heaven do what you want them to do. Give us (exc) each day the food [SYN] that we (exc) need for that day. Forgive our sins just like we (exc) have forgiven the people who sin against us (exc). Do not let us(exc) do wrong things when we(exc) are tempted {someone or something tempts us}, and rescue us (exc) when Satan the evil one tempts us to do evil things."
He said to them, "When you pray, say things like this: ‘Father, we want you (sg) [MTY] to be honored/revered. We want people to let you(sg) [MTY, MET] rule over their lives. Give us (exc) each day the food [SYN] that we need. Forgive us for the wrong things that we have done, because we forgive people for the wrong things that they do to us. Do not let us do wrong things when we are tempted {someone or something tempts us}.’"
Also when you pray, do not do what the hypocrites do. They like to stand in the Jewish meeting places and on the corners of the main streets to pray, in order that other people will see them and think highly of them. Keep this in mind: People praise them, but that is the only reward they will get.
But as for you, when you pray, go into your private room and close the door in order to pray to God, your Father, whom no one can see. He observes you where no one else observes you, and he will reward you.
But as for you, when you pray, go into your private room and close the door in order to pray to God, your Father, whom no one can see. He observes you where no one else observes you, and he will reward you. When you pray, do not repeat words many times as the people who do not know God do when they pray. They repeat meaningless words because they think that if they use many words, their gods will listen to them and give them what they ask for.

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.
So, because the Lord is able to heal the sick and to forgive sins, tell each other the sinful things that you have done, and pray for each other in order that you may be healed {that God may heal you} physically and spiritually. If righteous people pray and ask fervently for God to do something, God will certainly do it in a powerful way.

If anyone of you does not know how to act wisely in order to endure difficulties/trials well, he should ask God to show him what he should do, because God wholeheartedly/gladly helps all people who ask and does not scold anyone for asking. Those who ask, God will give them wisdom to know what they should do. But when you ask God, you should firmly trust him. You should not doubt that he wants to help you always, because people who keep doubting God are unstable/changeable [SIM] like a wave of the sea that is blown back and forth by the wind {that goes back and forth when the wind blows} [DOU, SIM]. Indeed, people who doubt should not think that the Lord God will do anything that they request him to do, because they are people who cannot decide whether they will commit themselves to God, and they are unstable/undecided in everything that they do.

There are things that you very much desire to have, but you do not get those things, so you want to kill [HYP] those who hinder you from getting them. You desire what other people have, but you are unable to get what you desire, so you quarrel and fight with one another [HYP]. You do not have what you desire because you do not ask God for it.
Come near spiritually to God, and as a result he will come near to you. You who are sinners, stop doing what is wrong, and do only what is good [SYN, MET]. You who cannot decide whether you will ◄commit yourselves to God/obey God completely►, stop thinking wrong thoughts, and think only pure thoughts [MTY].
Deus ouve e responde
Clama a mim e te responderei. O Senhor ouve os que clamam a Ele com sinceridade e responde com poder e fidelidade.
Call out to me, and then I will tell you great and wonderful things that you have not known before.’
Call out to me, and then I will tell you great and wonderful things that you have not known before.’
At that time, when you pray, I will heed you.
If you earnestly desire for me to bless you, you will experience me blessing you.
because you answer our prayers.
People everywhere will come to you
He does not despise or ignore those who are suffering;
he does not hide ◄his face/himself► from them.
He has listened to them when they cried out to him for help.
And pray to me when you have troubles.
If you do that, I will rescue you, and then you will praise me.
I called out to him to help me,
and I praised him while I was speaking to him [MTY].
If I had ignored the sins that I had committed,
the Lord would not have paid any attention to me.
If I had ignored the sins that I had committed,
the Lord would not have paid any attention to me.
But because I confessed my sins, God has listened to me
and he paid attention to my prayers.
I love Yahweh,
because he hears me when I cry for him to help me.
He listens to me,
so I will call out to him all during my life.
But when I was very distressed, I called out to Yahweh,
and from his temple he heard me.
He listened to me when I cried out for help.
You will listen to the prayers of your people who are homeless,
and you will ◄not ignore them/do what they request► [LIT]
when they plead with you to help them.
However, Yahweh always heard them when they cried out to him;
he listened to them when they were distressed.
For their sake, he thought about the agreement/promise that he had made to bless them,
and because he never stopped loving them very much,
he changed his mind about punishing them more.
Yahweh ◄comes near to/is ready to help► all those who call out to him,
to those who call to him sincerely.
Confiança nas promessas
Se pedimos algo segundo a sua vontade, Ele nos ouve. A confiança na oração vem de conhecer e confiar em Deus e suas promessas.
Because we have a close relationship with him, we are very confident that he hears us when we ask him to do anything that is in accordance with ◄his will/what he desires►.
Because we have a close relationship with him, we are very confident that he hears us when we ask him to do anything that is in accordance with ◄his will/what he desires►. And since we know that he hears whenever we ask him for something, we also know that it is as though he has already done what we requested him to do.
And since we know that he hears whenever we ask him for something, we also know that it is as though he has already done what we requested him to do.
And, when we confidently pray to him and request something from him, we receive it because we do what he commands us to do, and because we do what pleases him.
So, let us come boldly to Christ [MTY], who rules [MET] from heaven and does for us what we do not deserve, in order that we might experience his acting mercifully toward us, and in order that we might experience his helping us in a kind way whenever we need help.

It is possible for people to please God only if they trust God, because anyone who wants to come to God must first believe that God exists and that he rewards those who seek to know him.
So, he can completely and eternally save those who come to God by trusting in what Jesus has done for them, since he lives forever to plead with God to help them.
Diversas formas de oração
A oração inclui adoração, intercessão, súplica e ação de graças. Levante mãos santas, ore pelos outros e clame em todo tempo.
Do not worry about anything. Instead, in every situation, pray to God, tell him what you need, and ask him to help you [DOU]. Also thank him for what he does for you. As a result, God will enable you not to worry about anything [MTY] (OR, God will protect your minds in every way) [PRS]. That is, he will cause you to have inner peace because you have a relationship with Christ Jesus. You will not be able to understand [PRS] how you can be so peaceful in such difficult circumstances!!

Moreover, God, whom I serve, has an unlimited supply of everything that we(inc) need. And as a result, because of your relationship with Christ Jesus, he will completely supply everything that you need.
I desire that in every place where believers worship, the men who pray publicly [MTY] should be men who are not practicing sin. When they pray, they should not be angry with anyone and they should not doubt that God will answer their prayers (OR, should not quarrel with anyone).

Three times I prayed to the Lord about it, begging him to take this away from me. But he said to me, "No, I will not take this away from you. Instead, I will kindly help you, and that will be all that you need, because it is when you are weak that I can best work powerfully to help you." So, because of what the Lord said to me, I will very gladly boast about the things that make me seem weak, so that people may realize that it is Christ who gives me power to serve him.
Similarly, in addition to our continuing to wait for what God will give us, God’s Spirit helps us when our spirits feel weak. We do not know what is proper/necessary for us to pray. But God’s Spirit knows, and he prays for us when we groan (OR, he groans) in a way that cannot be expressed in words (OR, prays with us, groaning in a way that cannot be expressed in words). God, who examines our inner feelings, understands what his Spirit desires. What God understands is that his Spirit prays for us who belong to God exactly as God wants him to pray.

he did not doubt at all that God would do what he had promised. Instead, he trusted in God more/very strongly, and he thanked God for what God was going to do. He was also convinced {very sure} that the thing that God promised, God was able to do.
Oração e perseverança
Persevere na oração. Mesmo quando parece que não há resposta, Deus está agindo. O que impossível aos homens é possível a Deus.
God is able to do much ◄greater things/more► than we could ask him to do, or even that we might think that he can do, by his power that is working within us.
God is able to do much ◄greater things/more► than we could ask him to do, or even that we might think that he can do, by his power that is working within us.
Keep this in mind: Whatever you decide on earth about punishing or not punishing a member of your congregation is what has also been decided by God in heaven {what God in heaven has also decided}.
This is true, because wherever at least two or three of you assemble because you believe in me [MTY], I am spiritually present with you. I will hear what you ask for and I will ask God to do it for you."
He answered us, "It is because you did not believe very much in God’s power. Think about this: Mustard seeds are very small, but in this area they grow and produce large [MET] plants. Similarly, if your faith grows until you truly believe that God will do what you ask him to, you will be able to do anything [LIT]! You could even say to this hill, ‘Move from here to there!’ and it would go where you told it to go."
After going a little further, he threw himself face down on the ground. He prayed, "My Father, if it is possible [MTY], do not make me have to endure the suffering that is coming now. But do not do as I want. Instead, do as you want!"
"But I say this to each of you disciples who are listening to what I say: Love your enemies as well as your friends. Do good things for those who hate you! Ask God to bless those who curse you! Pray for those who mistreat you!
"Simon, Simon, listen! Satan has asked God to let him test you, and God has permitted him to do it. Satan wants to cause you to suffer distress (OR, distress you) so that you will not believe/trust in me any more/longer. He wants to shake you, just like a man shakes wheat in a sieve to sift it [MET]. But I have prayed for you, Simon, that you will not completely stop believing in me. So when you (sg) restore your relationship with me, help your fellow apostles to trust in me more!"
All these apostles agreed concerning the things about which they continually were praying together. Others who prayed with them included the women who had accompanied Jesus, Mary who was Jesus’ mother, and his younger brothers.
About midnight, Paul and Silas were praying aloud and praising God by singing hymns. The other prisoners were listening attentively to them.
" almost died [PRS]; it was like [MET] a huge wave had crashed over me,
and almost destroyed me like a flood.
I thought that I would die; it was as though death wrapped ropes around me;
it was as though I was in a trap where I would surely die. [PRS, MET]
But when I was ◄very distressed/in great trouble►, I called out to you, Yahweh;
I cried out to you, my God.
And from your temple you heard me;
you listened when I called to you to help me.
Get up every night and cry out;
tell Yahweh what you are feeling.
Raise your arms to plead to him
to act mercifully to prevent our children from dying;
they are fainting on the street corners
because they have no food to eat.
Instead, we should ◄examine/think carefully about► our behavior;
we should turn back to Yahweh.
We should pray [IDM] sincerely and lift up our arms
toward God in heaven, and say,
But Yahweh says,
"In spite of these disasters that you have experienced,
you can return to me with all your inner beings.
Weep, and mourn, and ◄fast/abstain from eating food► to show that you are sorry for having abandoned me.
Seek to know me while it is still possible for you to do that;
call to me while I am near!
None of our people worships you,
and no one is completely dedicated to [IDM] you.
You have turned away from us.
It is as though you have caused us to be forced to continue our sinful behavior.
Before they call to me to help them, I will answer;
I will answer their prayers while they are still praying for me to do something for them.
Before they call to me to help them, I will answer;
I will answer their prayers while they are still praying for me to do something for them.
You people who live in Jerusalem [DOU], some day you will not cry any more. Yahweh will be kind to you when you call out to him for help. He will answer/help you as soon as he hears you call.
Yahweh, the Holy One of the Israeli people, the one who created Israel, says this to them:
"◄Why do you ask questions about what I do for you, my children?/You should not ask questions about what I do for you, my children.► [RHQ]
◄Why do you tell me about the work that I should do?/You should not tell me about the work that I should do.► [RHQ]
Postura na oração
Ore no secreto, e o Pai que vê em secreto recompensará. A oração não precisa de muitas palavras, mas de coração sincero.
Be quiet in Yahweh’s presence, and wait patiently for him to do what you want him to do.
Do not be bothered/upset when what evil men do is successful,
when they are able to do the wicked things that they plan.
Each morning and each noontime and each evening I tell him what I am concerned about, and I moan,
and he hears my voice.
You my people, always trust in him.
Tell him all your troubles,
because he is ◄our refuge/the one who protects us► [MET].
(Think about that!)
God, you are the God whom I worship.
I greatly desire to be with you
like [SIL] a person in a dry hot desert greatly desires some cool water.
Yahweh is pleased with those who ◄obey his requirements/do what he has instructed them to do►,
those who request him with their entire inner beings to help them to do that.
I try to serve you with my entire inner being;
do not allow me to ◄wander away from obeying/disobey► ◄your commands/what you have commanded►.
All those who are loyal to Yahweh,
he has chosen them to belong to him.
Yahweh listens to me when I pray to him.
Listen to me when I pray to you each morning,
and I wait for you to reply.
If people do not obey [MTY] God’s laws,
God ◄detests their prayers/considers that their prayers stink►.
It is almost the time when everything on this earth will come to an end. Therefore, keep thinking sensibly/reasonably and control what you think [DOU], so that you can pray clearly.
