THREE BIG PRAYER MISTAKES:

In the beginning, let's address three common mistakes in prayer:

Formality Prayers not Authentic prayers: Our prayers should be authentic expressions, not bound by formality.

Small Rushing Prayer not Develop patience in waiting on God: Patience is key; rushing through prayers hinders the development of a deep connection with God.

1. OUR PRAYERS ARE TOO FORMAL.

2. OUR PRAYERS ARE TOO GENERAL.

3. OUR PRAYERS ARE TOO BUSY.
