What does this video teach us about prayer?

The video highlights the importance of talking to Jehovah through prayer and teaches us that Jehovah is willing to listen to our requests and respond to them. It also teaches us that we need to trust him to respond in the way he thinks is best for us.

ADDITIONAL COMMENTS

The video also shows that sometimes our prayers are not answered the way we expect, but we must trust that Jehovah has a bigger plan for us. In Sophia's case, Jehovah used her parents and the Bible account of Hannah to help her. It is also shown that the brothers all over the world pray for the children and young people of the congregation so that Jehovah gives them courage to stand firm in the face of pressure. As we can see, these are some of the means that Jehovah uses to answer prayers.

Another thing that the video teaches us is that we can ask Jehovah in prayer from the things we want or like, to those that help us with our worries and problems. We can also use prayers to praise him, thank him, and ask him for our family, friends, and worldwide brotherhood.

The video teaches us that Jehovah can use our brothers, family, and friends to answer our prayers. Therefore, we must have the humility to accept Jehovah's answer to our prayers.

Another important point that the video highlights and teaches us is the importance of teaching our children to pray from an early age so that they have open communication with Jehovah and the confidence that he will listen to them and answer their prayers in many ways. You also have to teach them that sometimes they will have to be attentive to see how Jehovah responds and in others they will have to be patient.

In addition, the video also teaches us the importance of addressing the topic of prayer in our family worship. Sophia had prayed, but she thought that Jehovah was not listening to her. She also thought that perhaps Jehovah was too busy to answer her, but after family worship she understood that we must persevere in prayer and be patient, since Jehovah responds at the right time and in the way that he considers most favorable for us.

The video with Ana's story also teaches us that even if it seems that Jehovah is taking time to answer our prayers, we should not give up. On the contrary, we must persist in prayer and trust that Jehovah will answer us in due time.

Another lesson that we can extract from the video is that we must see the value of patience when praying, since sometimes it can take time for our prayers to be answered, but we must not forget that Jehovah sees everything and knows what we need and when is the best time to answer us.

At the end of the video you can see how Sofia prays to thank Jehovah. This action highlights the importance of gratitude. So just as we pray to make requests and expect Jehovah to respond immediately, we must also be quick to thank Jehovah when he acts on our behalf.

In the video we see how Caleb wanted to help Sofia and he did so by praying for her so that Jehovah would help her in her moment of distress. This teaches us that we must pray for our brothers, including children, so that Jehovah gives each one what he lacks according to his circumstances. So that they can continue to serve you faithfully.

Another important point is that the video teaches Christian parents the importance of helping their children from a very young age to develop a close relationship with Jehovah through prayer. In this way, no matter how old you are, you will always be encouraged to trust in Jehovah at all stages of your life.
