Expect more from you prayers. The power of your prayer depends upon the amount of faith that you yourself have in it. To pray in the spirit that “even if this prayer does not do any good at least it cannot do any harm,” is not, really, to pray at all.
Have enough faith in the love of God to believe that a short heartfelt prayer is just as good as a long one. Too long a session of prayer usually means the in your heart you really doubt the love of God, and think that a great deal of effort and toil will be necessary to move Him. Pray quietly and sincerely for a reasonable time – and then leave the matter, expecting success.
O Lord, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou has done wonderful things; thy counsels of old are faithfulness and truth (Isaiah 25:1).
The length of a prayer is not what makes it work. It is the expectation of fruition that strengthens prayer, the fervent emotion that quickens it and the action after it that assures it. So, let us believe our prayers are being answered, invest them with all our hope and confidence while we act as if they are already true. Then God will do wonderful things.
Expecting answered prayers,
