God through prayer helps us handle emotions, become less self-focused, be more empathetic, and gain greater reconciliation.

The Apostle Paul tells us in Philippians 3:10, “My goal is to know Him and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death.”

Our goal through prayer should include knowing God better, to experience the fullness of relationship with Him.

In response to social media fans and followers questioning if God does indeed listen to prayer, Franklin set the record straight:

Aren’t you getting tired of posting pictures of countless tragedies in the world..? I am. I even had someone on Twitter tell me “Kirk your prayers aren’t working”…. I disagree. God loving us so much that from the beginning of creation He placed inside of us the seed of choice, because love is only activated when you choose it. Unfortunately many don’t. They choose hate, sometimes in the name of love. So I believe our prayers work. Many of us are the products of praying mothers and grandmothers. So what if EVERY knee would bow and pray. Imagine….only if we would choose. ‪
