Prayer is not a ritual to relieve guilt

Some of you grew up where you were taught if you sin and if it’s a really big sin, you have to say a certain number of prayers. That’s not in the Bible. Prayer is not punishment for your sins.
Jesus specifically told us NOT to repeat the same thing over & over.
Matt 6:7 says,” When you pray DO NOT use meaningless repetition thinking you will be heard for your many words.”
What I want to do   is  to demolish misconceptions with the truth. We are going to look at the basics, the foundation of prayer. You’re going to see that prayer is not as a duty but a delight, Not a burden but a blessing .
