What is prayer?_ Prayer is the child-like communion of our hearts with God, in which we tell Him all our needs, and earnestly seek some gift from Him. _266. Who should pray?_ All should pray; even little children. _267. But can all pray in this manner?_ No, not the impenitent; their hearts are not right with God, and they do not seek Him earnestly. _268. In whose name must we pray?_ We must pray in the name of Jesus. =John 16:23. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you.= _269. What is meant by praying in the name of Jesus?_ To pray in the name of Jesus is to ask on the strength of what He has done for us, and His intercession with the Father.
