Prayer is one of the ways in which man cooperates with God,

it is a means by which man calls upon God,

and it is the process by which man is moved by God’s Spirit,

the process by which man is moved by God’s Spirit.

It can be said that those without prayer

are dead people who are devoid of spirit,

which proves that they lack the faculty to be moved by God,

they lack the faculty to be moved by God.

Without prayer, it would be impossible to lead a normal spiritual life,

much less keep up with the Holy Spirit’s work.

To be without prayer is to break off one’s relationship with God,

and it would be impossible to win God’s approval.

As a believer in God, the more one prays,

that is, the more one is moved by God,

the more one will be filled with resolution

and the better able one will be to receive new enlightenment from God.

As a result, only this kind of person

can be made perfect by the Holy Spirit as quickly as possible.
