In the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words.
Romans 8:26
Isn't it amazing that God Himself prays for you and me? Doesn't that just mess with your mind? The God of the universe intercedes on your behalf with more than words, deep groanings which no man can understand. These groanings are heavens language, a kingdom unknown to this world. The Spirit of God is your greatest ally. Your back is covered, your life secure in His constant covering.
When your prayers seem to fail guess what? It's okay. He never fails. When your faith seems to fall short. It's okay. His faith never diminishes or fades. You can be confident that today the Holy Spirit of God intercedes on your behalf. He is jealous and passionate for you in ways you will not understand until eternity. We are weak and frail beings in need of a God who is never weak or frail. Our God never sleeps or slumbers but is continually on the watch for us. Amazing that He loves so deeply and carries us in intercession before the Father. This motivates me to want to learn all the more how to pray. Teach us Oh God how to pray! For prayer is the communion with you, the door to the mysteries revealed. Let us hunger and thirst for this communion with the Spirit and the Son and the Father.
