In Luke 18:1, for example, we are told to pray with persistence and “not give up.” Also, when we present our requests to God, we are to pray with faith (James 1:5; Mark 11:22-24), with thanksgiving (Philippians 4:6), with a spirit of forgiveness toward others (Mark 11:25), in Christ’s name (John 14:13-14), and as stated above, with a heart that is right with God (James 5:16).
Sa Lukas 18:1, halimbawa, sinabihan tayo na manalangin ng walang humpay at huwag manghinawa. Gayundin naman, dapat nating ipaabot ang ating mga kahilingan sa Diyos ng may pananampalataya (Santiago 1:5; Markos 11:22-24), may pasasalamat (Filipos 4:6), may espiritung nagpapatawad sa iba (Markos 11:25), sa pangalan ni Hesu Kristo (Juan 14:13-14), at gaya ng nasabi sa itaas, may pusong tama sa harapan ng Panginoon (Santiago 5:16).
