Biblical prayers, however, are multi-faceted, encompassing the whole of the desire to enter into conscious and intimate communion with our holy, perfect, and righteous God. That such a God would bend an ear to His creatures causes praise and adoration to pour forth in abundance (Psalm 27:4; 63:1-8), produces heartfelt repentance and confession (Psalm 51; Luke 18:9-14), generates an outpouring of gratitude and thanksgiving (Philippians 4:6; Colossians 1:12), and creates sincere intercessory pleas on behalf of others (2 Thessalonians 1:11; 2:16).
Maombi ya kibibilia, huwa na sura tofauti, yakijumlisha haja zote na kuingia katika ufahamu na uhusiano wa ndani na Mtakatifu wetu, mkamilifu na Mungu mwenye haki. Kwamba Mungu kama huyo atakunja sikio lake kwa viumbe wake ambao wanaweka sifa na ibada kwa wingi (Zaburi 27:4; 63:1-8), na kuzaa moyo wa toba na kukiri (Zaburi 51; Luka 18:9-14), waanzisha moyo wenye nia na shukrani (Wafilipi 4:6; Wakolosai 1:12), na kuunda hali ya kuwamboe wengine kwa niapa yao (2 Wathesalonike 1:11; 2:16).
