Should You Kneel to Pray Each Night or Can You Say Your Prayers While Lying in Bed?

Elder David A. Bednar gave a wonderful talk about visiting the savannah of Africa and watching two cheetahs patiently stalk their prey. The topis remained alert however and escaped just in time. He compared it to spiritual warnings in our lives. He said, "Spiritual complacency and casualness make us vulnerable to the advances of the adversary. Spiritual thoughtlessness invites great danger into our lives...Focusing our lives in and on the Savior and His gospel enables us to overcome the tendency of the natural man to be spiritually snoozy and lazy. As we are blessed with eyes to see and ears to hear, the Holy Ghost can increase our capacity to look and listen when we may not typically think we need to look or listen or when we may not think anything can be seen or heard."1

We all have times when we fight the battle of laziness, even with something as simple as getting down on our knees to pray. We may think it is only something minor but I am certain that it is not. I say this because of my own natural man moments. On cold nights when we want to jump into bed and barricade the cold with our comforter, it is tempting to forego kneeling. There are times when we feel too tired to really say anything of importance. I know for myself, there have been prayers where I told my Father that I didn't have words for everything going on in my heart. Sometimes my tears serve as the only form of communication but the act of bowing before Him helps me stay in my place. It keeps me a little more humble. It helps me recognize His greatness and His mercy just a little more. When I take time to recognize those characteristics in Him, I can feel the Spirit more powerfully.

Can everyone get down on their knees? No. There may be some people with physical limitations who cannot do so but everyone can choose a place that helps them feel nearer to heaven. Will there be times when laying bed is an acceptable place to pray? Yes, on occasion but we must be conscientious that it does not become the rule rather than the exception.

I am fascinated by the Jewish religion in many ways but one of the things that impresses me most is their desire to keep the name of God holy. They do not speak His name unnecessarily, in jest, or as an expletive. Even when writing His name, they leave out a letter to keep the word incomplete. All this to honor and glorify His name. I believe as we cherish and protect His name, we have a greater tenderness in our relationship with Him.

John Taylor, the third President of the Church, reported: “Some years ago, in Nauvoo, a gentleman in my hearing, a member of the Legislature, asked Joseph Smith how it was that he was enabled to govern so many people, and to preserve such perfect order; remarking at the same time that it was impossible for them to do it anywhere else. Mr. Smith remarked that it was very easy to do that. ‘How?’ responded the gentleman; ‘to us it is very difficult.’ Mr. Smith replied, ‘I teach them correct principles, and they govern themselves.’”2

When we understand how sacred and special prayer is, I believe we make the principle of prayer a holy and sacred experience. Kneeling feels like a more appropriate way to help us be humble as we seek our God.

  • Hi My name is Mona. I just want to share my experience with the world on how I got my love back and saved my marriage… I was married for 7 years with 4 kids and we lived happily until things started getting ugly and we had fights and arguments almost every time… it got worse at a point that he filed for divorce… I tried my best to make him change his mind & stay with me cause I loved him with all my heart and didn’t want to lose him but everything just didn’t work out… he moved out of the house and still went ahead to file for divorce… I pleaded and tried everything but still nothing worked. The breakthrough came when someone introduced me to this wonderful, great spell caster Dr Zuma, who eventually helped me out… I have never been a fan of things like this but just decided to try reluctantly cause I was desperate and left with no choice… He did special prayers and cast a love spell on him. Within 24hours he called me and was sorry for all the emotional trauma he had cost me, he moved back to the house and we continue to live happily, the kids are happy too and we are expecting our fourth child… I have introduced him to a lot of couples with relationship problems across the world and they have had good news… Just thought I should share my experience cause I strongly believe someone out there needs it… You can contact him on spiritualherbalisthealing@gmail.com

  • I’m posting this review to warn others about cryptO investment scams that are becoming more common online. Scammers often create professional-looking websites and pretend to be financial experts to gain your trust.They will show you fake profits to encourage you to invest more m0ney, but when you try to withdraw your funds they demand additional payments such as taxes, verification fees, or withdrawal charges. If you encounter something like this, stop immediately and do not send more money. Always verify the legitimacy of any investment platform and report suspicious activities to the proper authorities. Good to see a review about this great Hacker Brunoe Quick Hack, If you have been scammed by crypt0 investment, Don’t panic—you’re not alone.Brunoe Quick Hack Thanks to their skills and persistence, I finally recovered my stolen Crypt0 Contact: BrunoeQuickHack (@) GMAIL.COM
