As much as we say that we know ourselves and we know what we need, we sometimes are blindsided by the situation we have at hand. And there are a lot of factors we have to consider but in the height of the problem or situation, we neglect some important aspects we should focus on. That is why, Christians who pray, with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, is a powerful offensive and defensive force against life's troubles. Why? Because the Holy Spirit is in him and the Holy Spirit, who knows the will of God in your life, will tell you what and how to pray for in your life's situation. So pray, in the power of the Holy Spirit.
