As you can see, prayer is communicating with God. Prayer is a one on one conversation with the only person who many times is the only one who can help. Prayer is conversation from the deepest part of your heart to the Almighty Creator. Prayer is telling God what is on your mind and what is in your heart.raying for others. When we pray for others, we become partners with God in his work of salvation, healing, comfort, and justice. God can certainly accomplish those things without us, but he gives us the privilege of being involved with him through prayer.

It may seem odd for me, a military man to adopt such a comparison. Truthfulness compels me to. I spent thirty- three years and four months in active military service as a member of this country's most agile military force, the Marine Corps. I served in all commissioned ranks from Second Lieutenant to Major-General. And during that period, I spent most of my time being a high class muscle- man for Big Business, for Wall Street and for the Bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism.
