Introduction: Prayer as Transformation
Prayer isn’t just about asking for what we need, it changes us from the inside out. When we spend time in God’s presence, our hearts are renewed, our minds are aligned with His truth, and our spirits are strengthened.
Prayer is the workshop where God molds our character, rewires our thinking, and equips us to live victoriously.
