"Woman, believe Me, the hour is coming when you will neither on this mountain , nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father. . . . But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship Him in spirit and truth." (John 4:21-24)So . . . PRAY everywhere, everyday, every time we are so moved to PRAY!

The Attitude of Prayer
Prayer in public should not be done for men to hear and for the ones praying to be exalted, but it should be done solely as led by the Holy Spirit and to seek the Lord. The Pharisees did many things to be seen and heard and they sought the praise of men. Matthew 6:5-8 therefore has Jesus' instructions to not pray in the synagogues and street corners simply to be heard. However, Paul urges us to pray everywhere and without doubting, lifting up holy hands. So the issue is attitude, not prayer!
As Jesus talked to the Samaritan, He made it clear . . .
