What Happens When We Pray
10 spiritual realities that occur every time you lift your heart to God.
Prayer is not a one-way conversation. When you pray, something happens. Heaven responds. The unseen realm moves. God Himself acts on your behalf. Here are 10 spiritual realities that take place every single time you bring your heart before the throne of God.
"If you remain in Me and My words remain in you, ask whatever you wish and it will be done for you."
