Prayer is the simple act of communicating with God – whether it is asking God to do things in our lives, bringing Him our problems and struggles, thanking Him for what He has done, or simply spending time in silence allowing Him to speak to us. Prayer is not a formula – it’s all about a relationship with God!

It has been said that music is the universal language, helping people engage with one another and form relationships with one another. Praising God or worshipping God is the act of declaring that God is good and we trust Him. This can be as simple as thanking God for what He has done, declaring God’s goodness over your life and home, or even spending time singing, raising your hands, and dancing before the Lord.

If you are just getting started, challenge yourself to take 10 minutes daily to praise God – whether in prayer or through song. Don’t know where to start? Check out our worship playlist, curated for you!
