What Is Prayer?
Kevin is searching for a job. He needs to provide for his family, but he also wants to find work that makes a positive difference in his community. Before each interview he asks God to help him favorably impress the interviewer with his skills and experience.Is prayer more than just asking for what you want?Elise is the mother of three young children, and they are all with her on a rushed trip to the grocery store. Her youngest is hungry and crying, and her two toddlers are removing items from the lowest shelves and playing a spirited game of “football” with them while other shoppers stare disapprovingly. “Help me keep it together, Jesus,” she whispers under her breath.

Everything you need to know about prayer
Prayer is instant access to God. This is hard to fathom, because we do not have consistent, infallible, instant access to anyone else on the planet.As helpful as our smartphones are, we still have to deal with glitches when Wi-Fi fails, cell phone signals drop out, or the phone stops working for no apparent reason. But while man-made gadgets can and do fail, prayer never fails.
No matter where we are or what we’re doing, we always have immediate and unfailing communication with God.

About this site…
I grabbed the domain DYPF.com along time ago. Four-letter dot coms were getting rare and I had used these initials when I wrote my first novel to remind myself to pray each time I began writing. I held on to the domain because I thought someday, maybe, it could be like the WWJD thing, and become popular.Fast forward to this year, I decided to get the domain DidYouPrayFirst.org and make a blog devoted to articles about prayer. I’m finally doing that now.
