The LORD is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous.- Prov. 15:29, KJV

When we are truly born again by repenting of our sins and receiving the LORD Jesus Christ as our Savior and LORD, then when we pray to the Father, Jesus echoes our prayers to Him. Jesus, Who ever lives to intercede for us, stands up for us before Almighty God!

That's right! When we pray--talk to God, our Father (He becomes our Father once we repent of our sins and ask His Son, Jesus the Christ, the only true Savior, the only real Messiah, to be our Savior and LORD)--then Jesus, our Savior, our Big Brother, our Heavenly Lawyer (and so much more!), stands up for us to communicate our prayers to the Father.

Prayer is both simple and complex, but rest assured that at its core, it is simply talking to God. However, since every person is born with a sin nature (since Adam and Eve betrayed God in the Garden of Eden and gave the power over earth to the devil), we must be covered by the mercy of God, so His pure glory won't destroy us.

Since Jesus came and sacrificed Himself on the cross to pay for all our sins (HALLELUJAH!!!!), and rose again, He lives forever to pray for us!

But because Jesus lives forever, his priesthood lasts forever. Therefore he is able, once and forever, to save[fn] those who come to God through him. He lives forever to intercede with God on their behalf. He is the kind of high priest we need because he is holy and blameless, unstained by sin. He has been set apart from sinners and has been given the highest place of honor in heaven. - Hebrews 7:24-26, NLT

However, if you don't know Jesus, He is not praying for you like that.

You need Him! This world is crazy, and He is the only true Hope of escape from it, and escape from hell once your body dies!
