Ch7. Listening is the beginning of praying mother Teresa.
Interesting survey with putting people alone in room with nothing but their thoughts and a button to shock them. 67% men 25% women prefer to endure shocking themselves over being alone with themselves.
Can you bear God wo silence?
Early church didn’t have goals just a plan to share.
We need to create time for a quiet place, quiet time, and a quiet heart

Ch4 some need to position the body to evoke prayer, kneeling, lighting candle, etc
Matt chandler recommends pray until soul is happy, then you don’t seek human praise.
We are first made to follow not lead.
Pray like an addict, where you know it will only be Jesus that gets you out of this
Ch 5 if I can’t die, show me the way.
Jacob I will not let you go unless you bless me

You don’t always have to be long winded
Father forgive them
Father not my will but your will
Be healed
Little girl get up
Help me be still

Ch 2 is great ! Some favorite points is train to be a praying leader not a leader that prays.
Think of it this way someone who occasionally complains is not a complainer or someone who occasionally golfs is a golfer it’s when you do it so much it become your identity.
Spend time training your prayer life like you do a relationship with spouse or like you would to train a muscle at gym, be dedicated to get results

Chapter 1 is very insightful. I took a page and 1/2 of notes.
I appreciate the data of if corporate prayer is part of your proactive plan in business then
91% are more aligned with values.
85% believe God is more clear in the Mission.
70% have increased productivity
Again this has been a proactive prayer.
.
Prayer is simply be with God.
Prayer completes you (John 16:24)
Prayer completes/abundant joy you John 16:24
