Daniel 6:10 Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went home. And in his upper room, with his windows open toward Jerusalem, he knelt down on his knees three times that day, and prayed and gave thanks before his God, as was his custom since early days.
What sort of example do you think you are setting with your prayer life? Do people know you pray? Do you offer prayer for others? Do you pray for other people?
God does not wish us to be selfish in our prayers but to pray for others always. Giving thanks to God for the prayers He has heard and answered is of paramount importance as well.
Just as we should thank people for what they do for us, we must always thank God for everything He is doing for us in our lives.
