Question 4

For those with Google Earth or Google Maps go there at your next opportunity.  The rest of you can consult any World Atlas.  Take a look at the entire planet, including the cities, the mountains, the valleys, the deserts and the entire surfaces of the seven seas.  Any of these locations work.  You can pray to God anywhere, at any time and for any reason.

You may pray at home and at work.  You may pray to God in a bathroom, a public restroom or the outhouse out behind the barn.  You may pray in the locker room at work, in your car at a stop light or from you seat on the airplane at 33,000 feet.   You may pray in the dark or the light at noonday.  Firstfruits can pray in the football huddle, a crowded elevator or at the bottom of a coal mine.

Notice these locations of these prayers:

In Battle:
2 Chronicles 13:14
And when Judah looked back, behold, the battle was before and behind: and they cried unto the LORD, and the priests sounded with the trumpets.

On a Stake:
Luke 23:42
And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.

Jesus at a tomb of Lazarus
John 11:41-43
41 Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.
42 And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.
43 And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.

In the wilderness:
Matthew 4:1-2
1 Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.
2 And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred.

Clearly Jesus was praying in the wilderness.

We see Jesus praying in many different locations within scripture.  Follow His example and pray anywhere and everywhere.
