John Mark Comer claims that environment matters for prayer by misusing Jesus’ teaching on prayer in Matthew 6. We examine that passage and show that it’s motive that matters, not environment. In Matthew 6:5-8 Jesus warns against hypocrisy in offering long prayers to gain status among religious people. Going to an inner room to pray in secret was not a mystical spiritual technique to hear God’s voice, it was to avoid praying with mixed motives. Rather than non-tangible metaphysical impressions to know that God is there and hearing us; we must believe by faith what is revealed in the Word of God.
