Praying Like Elijah

Prayer is powerful and effective (not a contradiction with God’s sovereign plan), and powerful prayer is accessible to us because Elijah was subject to the same human weakness as we are But God responded to His prayers because 1) he was righteous, 2) he prayed earnestly, and 3) he prayed for what God wanted to do. Ask God to burden your heart with some great thing He wants to accomplish through your prayers.
