Prayer is not meant to be shaped by personal preference, comfort, or human reasoning, but by the leading of the Spirit of God. Scripture makes this clear: what seems right in human thinking can lead the wrong way, while the Spirit gives life and direction that the flesh cannot provide. The challenge is not simply whether prayer is happening, but what is guiding it. Just as direction is sometimes resisted when it does not align with personal desires or understanding, the same struggle can appear in the prayer life. The question then becomes whether prayers are being formed by what feels right in the moment, or by a willingness to trust that God knows what He is doing.
