What is Acceptable Prayer?

Rev Lee Johnson, Rev Darrell Kingswood, and the banana loving Rev Ron Morris discuss what constitutes acceptable prayer.

Heidelberg Catechism Question 117
What belongs to such prayer which is acceptable to God and which He will hear?

First, that with our whole heart we call only upon the one true God, who has revealed Himself to us in His Word, for all that He has commanded us to ask of Him; second, that we thoroughly know our need and misery, so as to humble ourselves in the presence of His divine majesty; third, that we be firmly assured that notwithstanding our unworthiness, He will, for the sake of Christ our Lord, certainly hear our prayer, as He has promised us in His Word.
