    I would propose to you, a thankful attitude toward the Lord in everything we face, opens our spiritual eyes to see His loving Hands at work. Sometimes our circumstances are not the best, sometimes down right bad.

    Pray Without Ceasing

    Breaking 100 coconuts, burning 100 candles, writing prayer request 1 lakh times, rolling beads, climbing the steps with an offering on the head, shaving your hair would do no good in Christianity.

    Prayer points! 1 Thessalonians 5:17 ”Pray without ceasing.” When we want certain things desperately, why not pray desperately? That’s my question! We wait desperately for a promotion, job, partner and what not; yet, we fail to desperately pray because we are doubtful of the ...read more

    God's will for each of His children is that we live the joy sustained life.

    In this passage, the apostle Paul clearly tells us some things that are God’s will for each of us in Christ Jesus. Since success in life could be defined as “Knowing the will of God and being in the center of it,” this passage is one that we should carefully meditate on and seek ...read more

    "Be Prayerful” (A Communion Message) Series

    Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Nov 18, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,316 views

    Our prayer life is a indicator of our reliance upon God. God’s will for each of us is that we so rely on Him that prayer is a spontaneous activity throughout our daily life as individuals and throughout our weekly activities as a church family.

    Last time, we thought together about how it is God’s will for each of His children to be joyful. Now today, I want us to spend some time reflecting on the second thing that Paul says is God’s will for each of us - v. 17. There are two ways in which this needs to be applied: 1. It must be applied ...read more

    God calls upon His people to have a thankful heart and an "attitude of gratitude."

    Paul mentions three things that are God’s will for each and every one of His children. In this series, we have considered how it is God’s will that we be joyful (v. 16) and prayerful (v. 17). Now, we will turn our attention to verse 18, where we are told that it is God’s will for each of His ...read more
