"I think it was because his heart had been renewed by divine grace. Prayer is a living thing; you cannot find a living prayer in a dead heart. No, sir, if you have not been made alive by the grace of God, you cannot pray. The dead cannot pray, and the spiritually dead cannot pray; but the moment you begin to pray, it is a sign that life has been given to you."
Amen! The only way we can pray and pray from the heart is because we have been renewed by grace! We are now ALIVE! Christ's death on the cross gave us access to the Father, which allows us to pray and communicate with Him. As it is stated in the Gospel Primer "We were elected to pray." Prayer is one of the many gifts given to us through saving grace. As with other gifts given to use we should use it. The gift of prayer is something I should use constantly, because I am now FREE to by the Blood of the Lamb!!!

Couldn't have said it any better myself. What a cause for celebration this is. Not only are we saved from sin and death, but are able to communicate with the One who saved us!
