| 5 Famous Prayers in the Bible |
You may wonder what type of prayer arouses GOD'S attention and get results. Effective prayer is direct communication with GOD. It acknowledges individual faith in a power higher than oneself who can help, guide and bring comfort. Many see prayer as weak, spineless and the last resort of out of touch people in over their heads. I beg to differ. Prayer is the very first tactic of powerful, resourceful people living in complete dependence on GOD.

Throughout the Bible when situations occurred, prayer made the difference for the person praying. The first example of prayer that gets GOD attention is The LORD'S Prayer. Often called the Model Prayer, this prayer uses the formula of reverence for GOD first, petitioning, asking for forgiveness and then closing with praise. When asked by HIS disciples, JESUS taught HIS followers to pray with sincerity and without pretext. The tone that this prayer sets is reliance upon the LORD to meet needs.
5 Famous Prayers in the Bible
1. Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, As we forgive our debtors. And do not lead us into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. (Matthew 6:9-13, NKJV)
The second prayer example looks at the short and simplistic Prayer of Jabez. It also got GOD'S attention and produced results! What was noteworthy of this prayer was the fact that Jabez asked for GOD'S blessing. The Bible gives very little background about Jabez, yet this particular prayer stuck out.
2. And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying, "Oh, that You would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, that Your hand would be with me, and that YOU would keep me from evil, that I may not cause pain!" So God granted him what he requested. (1 Chronicles 4:10 NKJV)
The third prayer we examine is what David prayed after Nathan the prophet informed him of GOD'S judgment because of his adultery with Bathsheba, and his murder of Uriah, Bathsheba's husband. This is a prayer of confession to assuage guilt and receive forgiveness. The person praying must always take full responsibility for his or her actions. This type of humility makes this an effective prayer.
3. O loving and kind GOD, have mercy. Have pity upon me and take away the awful stain of my transgressions. Oh, wash me, cleanse me from this guilt. Let me be pure again. For I admit my shameful deed-it haunts me day and night. It is against YOU and YOU alone I sinned and did this terrible thing. YOU saw it all, and Your sentence against me is just. Create in me a new, clean heart, O GOD, filled with clean thoughts and right desires. Don't toss me aside, banished forever from Your presence. Don't take Your HOLY SPIRIT from me. Restore to me again the joy of your salvation, and make me willing to obey YOU. (Psalms51:1-17 TLB)
A fourth example is how Hannah, who was barren, prayed for a son. She knew that GOD was able to grant her request. Her prayer demonstrated her faith by including a vow for her future.
4. In bitterness of soul Hannah wept much and prayed to the LORD. And she made a vow, saying, "O LORD Almighty, if YOU will only look upon your servant's misery and remember me, and not forget your servant but give her a son, then I will give him to the LORD for all the days of his life, and no razor will ever be used on his head." (1 Sam 1:10-11, NIV)
The fifth prayer examined is from Hezekiah after the prophet told him to prepare to die. Hezekiah's tearful prayer spoke of his urgent need. GOD bestowed mercy and gave Hezekiah fifteen additional years of life.
5. "Remember now, O LORD, I beseech YOU, how I have walked before YOU in truth and with a whole heart and have done what is good in Your sight." And Hezekiah wept bitterly. (2 Kings 20:3, NASU)
The common thread prevalent in these prayers was a sincere link to GOD. True prayer fellowship recognizes that there is nothing too hard for GOD. There is also nothing off limits in the prayer request. Long or short, what garner results from GOD are the faith, love and motivation behind the prayers!

'띠리링~' 수화기 넘어 짜릿하고 흥분되는 속삭임이 들려온다. 우연히 걸려온 전화 한통 때문에 벌어지는 두 남녀의 은밀하고 대담한 폰 스캔들(Phone Scandal)이 영화로 펼쳐진다. 영화 '나의 PS 파트너'(감독 변성현, 제작 나의 PS 파트너 문화산업)는 로맨틱 코미디의 단골소재 '달달' 로맨스 대신 19금 폰 스캔들이라는 대담한 설정을 통해 성인남녀의 솔직한 연애관을 그려냈다. '19세 이상 관람가' 수위등급에서도 알 수 있듯이 영화 속에는 배우들의 낯 뜨거운 음담패설이 쏟아지고 수위 높은 베드신도 나온다. 이번 영화가 첫 상업영화 데뷔작인 변성현 감독은 "친구들과의 술자리에서 했던 이야기(음담패설)를 대사로 살려서 어렵지 않게 시나리오를 썼다"면서 "남자와 여자의 음담패설 차이는 단어인 것 같다. 남자가 직설적인 단어를 지칭한다면 여자는 대명사로 구분 짓는 것 같다. 그래서 여자들 대사 쓸 때 좀 힘들었다"고 연출 소감을 밝혔다. 영화 '미녀는 괴로워'로 단번에 '로코퀸'의 자리에 오른 배우 김아중은 이번 영화에서도 발랄하면서 섹시한 매력으로 극을 이끈다. 여기에 드라마 '올인' '태양을 삼켜라' '로열 패밀리' '대풍수' 등 반듯하고 모범적인 캐릭터만 맡아온 배우 지성이 철저하게 망가져 김아중과 환상의 호흡을 맞춘다. 그뿐인가, 지성이 신소율과 선보인 수위 높은 베드신은 영화의 분위기를 후끈 달아오르게 한다. 주연배우들이 앞에서 극을 이끄는 동안 조연배우들은 극의 빈공간을 채운다. 배우 김성오, 문지윤, 김보미 등이 던지는 깨알대사로 흥미를 업시키고, 카메오로 출연한 연기자 김보연, 가수 신해철, 개그맨 김준호 등은 미친 존재감을 보이며 재미를 더한다. 추운 겨울, 눈과 귀가 따뜻하다 못해 화끈해지는 영화를 찾는다면, 오는 12월 6일 개봉하는 ...Love Quotes
