Sinopse

Is prayer to you just words? 
Or have you ever felt, even once, that you were standing before God with your whole being… and your heart was embracing heaven? 
🎙️ In this rare and powerful sermon, His Holiness Pope Shenouda III speaks to us about the greatest spiritual relationship a human being can ever live: Prayer. 
✝️ Prayer is not just a form of piety… 
Not a routine… 
Not an obligation… 
Not even a request… 
Prayer is an encounter… a connection… a love… a divine presence. 
It is the golden bridge that links heaven to earth. 
It is Jacob’s ladder, stretching from your heart to the throne of God. 
📖 The Bible says: 
“Let my prayer be set before You like incense, the lifting up of my hands like the evening sacrifice.” (Psalm 141:2) 
“With my whole heart I seek You; do not let me wander from Your commandments.” (Psalm 119:10) 
“My soul thirsts for God, for the living God.” (Psalm 42:2) 
“My house shall be called a house of prayer.” (Isaiah 56:7) 
⛪ Prayer is not only spoken words… 
Prayer can be:A tearA glanceA silent acheA sacred silence 
🕊️ Pure prayer is:Comfort for the sufferingRest for the lonelyA weapon for the spiritual warriorA terror to demonsA breath of life for the saints 
✝️ Even Christ Himself prayed… 
He would withdraw and spend long hours in prayer, teaching us: 
“Men ought always to pray and not lose heart.” (Luke 18:1) 
“Enter into your inner room, shut the door, and pray to your Father who is in secret.” (Matthew 6:6) 
💧 Prayer is:A spiritual incense rising from the heartA dialogue of love from the soul to the Spirit of GodThe longing of the limited toward the embrace of the Infinite.
