Welcome to enjoying everyday life with New York Times best-selling author Joyce Meyer.

On today's program Joyce will be teaching from her series,

Simple Prayer, Simple Life.

Prayer is so much easier than we think.

It's simply talking to God,

something as natural as breathing.

We can pray any time, anywhere, about anything.

Now here's Joyce with today's teaching.

Well I tell you I sure love to preach God's word and I have no idea how many of these

meetings I've done in my life but I don't get tired of them because I know that the

word of God changes people's lives. Amen. Now I don't know how excited you are or

aren't about prayer or how excited you may or may not feel when I told

you that I was going to do some teaching on prayer but I tell you you ought to

get excited about prayer because it's one of the greatest privileges that you have.

I don't think people pray as much as they ought to simply because they don't understand

the power of prayer.

And then I think some people pray more than they think they do because they have a wrong view

of what prayer is.

I actually have a book coming out in the spring called The Power of Simple Prayer.

And I really want people to understand that prayer doesn't have to be a labor or something

that we work at.

It needs to be like breathing.
