2. We Must Give God Our Attention “But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.” Matthew 6:6

3. Go Through the A.C.T.S. of Prayer Adoration - Matt. 6:9 Confession - 1 John 1:9; Ps. 32:5 Thanksgiving - Eph. 5:20; Phil. 4:6-7 Supplication - Phil. 4:6; 1 Tim. 2:1
