Matt 6:6 But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut the door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place;
Jesus took it for granted you & I pray, and that we pray daily. This is not about praying while we're doing other things, gardening, cooking, cleaning, walking, driving, etc. This is doing one thing - prayer. We are to go into a room & shut the door! This gives us undistracted time with God. We can say things to God that we wouldn't if other were listening. We become focused on the Father & can hear and see what He is saying to us. A far greater closeness & intimacy is discovered in the 'secret' place. 'Shut the door' on the devil, your past sins, your mistakes and move on from this world into God's world of grace, acceptance and mercy. Make time & have a place to be alone with God every day!
