An online, daily devotional website, named Drawing Near is going to spend the month of March focusing on prayer.
God wants you to be diligent and faithful in prayer. With that goal in mind we will devote this month to a study of prayer from two texts: Daniel’s prayer in Daniel 9:1-19, and the disciples’ prayer in Matthew 6:9-13. Both are models of majestic, effective prayer.
Won’t you join me?
