    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Feb 1, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 21,327 views

    Nehemiah’s prayer shows us a very critical fact: Prayer is ALWAYS the right answer to what is going on in life. Whether you are facing a hardship, or a need for renewal, or asking for God's intervention -- prayer should always be our first response.

    Nehemiah’s Prayer Nehemiah 1:1-11; Deut 30:1-10 Introduction - Nehemiah is a great study of leadership, but also of obedience to God - Here is the critical thing to see this morning: prayer is always the right response -- Re: Lots of us will go through life acting and solving … ...read more

    What Is Prayer?

    Contributed by James Linders on Feb 2, 2016
     | 5,790 views

    Prayer is a conversation with God in His physical absence. We should ALWAYS TRUST God with our lives. The outcome of our prayer should NOT be based on our expectations and needs but on GOD'S will, immaterial of whether it is what we want.

    James 5:17-18 (ESV) "Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed fervently that it might not rain, and for three years and six months it did not rain on the earth. Then he prayed again, and heaven gave rain, and the earth bore its fruit." To answer the question “What IS ...read more

    Childlike Prayer Series

    based on 15 ratings
     | 28,676 views

    A lot of people think if they just had the right "formula" for praying that God would hear them. But that's not true. God's not impressed with your form, He's impressed with your childlike faith in prayer. So, how can I have that kind of faith in prayer?

    I'd like you to recite the Lord’s Prayer with me: Our Father which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, ...read more

    The Life Of Prayer

     | 3,514 views

    Luke 18:1 says,......."men ought always to pray, and not to faint"

    The Life of Prayer One thing we know about Jesus and prayer is that He made prayer a priority. The Bible reveals how Jesus would sacrifice sleep or rest to spend time with the Father. He would pray before the sun came up; He would pray all night, even after ministering to people all day. That is a ...read more

    Thankful prayer brings divine peace, guards our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus, and brings right thinking…biblical thinking.

    Introduction Fear is a human emotion that is triggered by a perceived threat. Fear is a basic survival mechanism that signals our bodies to respond to danger with a fight or flight response.

    A Leper's Prayer

    based on 4 ratings
     | 16,837 views

    Life often presents extreme conditions from which we pray to overcome. Some conditions are described as hopeless. How do you pray in such times? This sermon challenges us to learn from a deplorable condition known as leprosy. Hear the prayer of a leper.

    This text illustrates what I choose to call A Leper’s Prayer. Before you think that it is irrelevant, you must understand the level of intensity in prayer that comes from the heart. I can’t think of a situation more drastic, more hideous or more undesirable than that of the life of a ...read more

    Unsafe Prayers

    Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 25, 2016
     | 6,022 views

    Unsafe prayers are those which take us out of our comfort zone, which expose us to God, which thrust us out into the realm of faith and cause us to completely rely on God. Are you ready to pray unsafe prayers?

    UNSAFE PRAYERS Jer. 42:20 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: THE LUMBERYARD 1. A man went to the lumber yard and said to an attendant, “I want 5 4X2’s.” The attendant said, “Do you mean 2X4’s?” He answered, “Let me go out to the truck to ask.” 2. He went out ...read more

    Paul loved the church at Philippi and was committed to praying for them. We need to share the same commitment to pray for the church. There are real people with real needs, that need specific prayers.

    A Prayer of Purpose Philippians 1: 9-11 Following a gracious greeting and a word of thankfulness for their partnership in ministry, Paul offers a brief, but pointed prayer for the church in Philippi. Although his prayer is but three sentences long, it possesses great wisdom and reveals the heart ...read more

    This is a sermon calling us to repentance from a better than thou attitude of the Pharisee

    When we look at the text today we see that Dr. Luke made no bones about who Jesus was addressing in this parable. Jesus was telling this parable to the high and mighty, holier than thou folks. He was addressing the religious folks that acted like they were just a little better than everyone else. ...read more
