What is prayer for? Everyone answers this question for himself. Prayer helps someone to keep their mind calm, someone asks God for love and protection. The most important thing to understand is that prayer has the power to change a person's destiny. Gives strength, enthusiasm to live and act, to do the right thing.
It is known that 5 to 20 minutes of attentive prayer a day can calm a person's mind. If he prays for 20 minutes a day, his destiny for that day becomes favorable, but a new destiny is not created. If 40 minutes a day, then fate is already changing. If one prays for more than 40 minutes a day, then knowledge appears in the heart of how to change what causes anxiety. And more than 1, 5 hours of prayer a day not only give knowledge of how to change one's destiny, but also the strength to change!
The most favorable time for prayer is early morning, before 6 am. At this time, the praying person will not be distracted by extraneous thoughts. The higher the sun rises, the harder it will be to pray. You may not have the motivation to get up so early yet. But try to do this as early as possible. And then the desire to get up early will appear on its own when you see and feel the changes in your own life. In the evening, after sunset, it is also very beneficial to clear your mind with prayer, to get rid of the negative consequences of the day lived. Evening prayer - like an energetic shower, is invaluable for our consciousness!
To feel the power of correct prayer, you need to sit with your back straight in front of the image of a holy person, an icon or an image of the Lord. You can put the scriptures in front of your eyes, if it is so customary in your faith. Then you need to turn on the sound of a holy person, this can be the sound of a choir or a prayer.
As you listen carefully to the sound of a person or group of people remembering the Lord, begin repeating the prayer. It is better if in prayer there is an appeal to the Lord or his names. Try to listen attentively to the audio recordings of those praying and try to adopt their frame of mind during prayer. There are three moods with which it is very good to pray - longing for the Lord, a mood of service, and love for the Lord. Don't worry if you don't feel anything special at first. After some time of practice, you will begin to manifest such emotions and feelings. The main thing during prayer is not to let extraneous thoughts enter your head and try to concentrate fully on repetition.
As you pray, be grateful to the Lord for what you have. You do not need to think about problems during prayer, about your requests to the Lord. There is no need for this, they will automatically resolve if you constantly practice prayer in the morning. Remember, you need to focus on the sound, it is he who has the power to change fate.
