How Can We Thank God for the Privilege of Coming to Him in Prayer?

Pray Big

 In the book of Ephesians, the apostle Paul teaches that God can "do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think" (3:20). How do we rightly thank God for His goodness toward us? In his book Pray Big, Alistair Begg helps us pray big prayers to a big God who is unlimited in granting all that is in His will for us.

“Father in heaven, I thank you for the gift of prayer. Even though there are some things that are a mystery to me, I know that this is a necessity—and I exercise the privilege fully confident in both your ability and willingness to do far more than I could ever imagine or guess. Help me to ask then for big things, for the sake of your glory and through your matchless power. Enable me to pray big. For Jesus’ sake. Amen.”
