"Prayer is the soul's sincere desire, Uttered or unexpressed." Prayer in man is a conscious expression of the upward trend of nature found everywhere. So every impulse or desire of the soul for life, love, light, is a prayer. Eliphaz repeated a prayer formula when he said, "Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee." Jesus put the same idea in these words: "Whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do." All growth and unfoldment from atom to sun is based upon this law of soul urge. What you earnestly desire and persistently affirm will be yours, if you "faint not." When we frame our desires in sound words and place them before our indwelling Lord, we are using intelligently the supreme law of God in bringing into manifestation that which He has implanted in us. A prayer without desire in it, a prayer without sincerity in it, a prayer without soul in it, a prayer without Spirit in it is a fruitless prayer.
