    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 14, 2003
    based on 44 ratings
     | 5,665 views

    When everything is going well, pray, because that is when the opposition will assault us, that is when confusion comes, and that is when you will discover the unfinished clutter in your own heart.

    Each fall I bring you messages on prayer. There is a reason for that. In this time of the year we need to be very alert about our devotional life. September is a crucial time to discern important things about prayer. The reason is not hard to find. In September, everything cranks up to a fever ...read more

    based on 91 ratings
     | 42,559 views
