Day 16: Teach Us to Pray! “Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know.” Jer. 33:3 “We have come to serious times. Events in our world call upon every follower of Christ to be totally in earnest in our relationship with God. To strengthen this relationship and satisfy our emotional and spiritual needs, we must learn the power of prayer. We must plead with the Lord, like the disciples of old, saying, ‘Lord, teach us to pray.’” Prayer, p. 1
