Really appreciating that Christ is our personal High Priest to offer our prayers powerfully to God, should inspire us to regularly pray in faith. However, prayer should not just be a 'wants list' presented to God; thanksgiving for food before meals, for safe keeping on journeys etc. should form an important part of our prayers.
Tukifahamu ukweli wa kwamba Kristo ni kuhani mkuu wetu wenyewe wa kutoa maombi yetu yenye nguvu mbele za Mungu, huu unatuvuvia kwa desturi kuomba kwa imani. Ingawa hivyo, ombi lisiwe tu na ‘orodha ya mahitaji’ ya kumpa Mungu; kutoa shukrani kwa ajili ya chakula kabla ya milo, kwa ajili ya kulindwa safarini n.k haya yatafanywa kuwa sehemu muhimu ya maombi yetu.
