Prayer
Prayer beads, wheels, mantras, and trances—Yahweh declares these to be empty rituals.
Real prayer is not a performance; it is a living relationship.
How do you pray? At its core, prayer is simply talking to God.
He listens to you when you speak. Yahweh deeply desires to hear from you—your honest thoughts, your raw feelings, and your desire to be a part of His global plan.
While He sometimes (not often) answers through supernatural miracles, He most often answers by inspiring the words of His servants, the prophets, to speak His truth directly into your life.
Prayer is how you truly learn to know God. Without it, there is no spiritual life in you. So start marching—and as you march, begin speaking to Him.
Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you.
The form of prayer looks like this:
”Holy Father, Beloved Yahweh,
Please forgive me for my sins (wrongdoings), forgive me for disobeying your Moral Law. Help me to do better, to live Your way more strongly. I am Your faithful warrior, Yahweh, and I seek to honor You more than anyone or anything in existence. I want You, Yahweh, more than anything, even life itself.
Thank You for all You have given me, all that I see and know from You, O Yahweh, for You are the Great and Almighty God, the One and only true Eternal God, the Creator of All Things.
In the name of Your son, Elijah, Your Commander whom You have given to us, I pray, Amen.”
This is only an example, so you can see the content and form of prayer. Do not quote it, but use it as a guide for the form of your prayers.
You can pray kneeling, standing, walking. But you must do so silently, in your own mind, to Yahweh. Our relationship with Yahweh is a true relationship; He is our Father, and you are all His sons and daughters if you have His Spirit.
You will not always pray in the name of Elijah. One day, when you are baptized, you will then pray in the name of the Passover, Joshua. But until you are baptized in water, you will pray in the name of Elijah. God has granted Elijah the authority to forgive or hold sins against His people, therefore, you shall ask forgiveness and pray for all things in his name.
You shall look with contempt upon the act of “displaying” religion, or ”making a show” of religion. When people pray out loud, to be seen of men, or wear “religious things,” or commit “noble acts to their gods” but yet they do so to be seen of men, for they are doing it to serve themselves, not Yahweh.
Yahweh looks at such things with contempt, and so shall you, His sons and daughters, look at such things with contempt.
You shall not look with contempt at the people who do such things. They are deceived, do not have the Spirit, and cannot help it. You shall pray to Yahweh, “O beloved Holy Father, please forgive them and give them the same strength you give me, according to your time for them.”
Nevertheless, you shall look with contempt upon ALL religion that DOES NOT come from Yahweh, for Him alone do we love and serve.
