How do we talk to God?

We can talk to God by praying to him. The Bible says that Christians can talk to God because Jesus has brought us to him (Jesus is like a high priest who prepares us to approach God [Heb. 4:12-16]). Because Jesus enables us to approach God, the Bible says we talk to God “through Jesus” (Rom. 1:8), or “in [his] name” (John 16:26).
