Do We Ever Pray in Private?

Hypocrites never pray in private. -- Samuel Chadwick

(5) "And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. (6) But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. -- Words of Jesus in Matthew 6:5-6 (NKJV)

IF MY PEOPLE... WILL? I WILL! God's Promise in 2 Chron. 7:14.

Let's get to know God with increased intimacy in the place of private prayer for sure.
