    The Proper Attitude In Prayer Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jan 5, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,060 views

    Prayer is something we are all familiar with, but I wonder if we are familiar enough with prayer? Is it possible that we have become too familiar with prayer? I believe there are instances in our lives where both are true.

    The Proper Attitude in Prayer Matthew 6: 5-8 We have come to the portion of the Sermon on the Mount where Jesus begins to address prayer. The act of praying is literally imploring God to move on our behalf. It is described as words of worship or entreaty that are offered to the Lord. Prayer is ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,117 views

    With the dramatic departure of Elijah, his servant Elisha calmly took up the mantle. The Holy Spirit ensures continuity in ministry.

    THE SUCCESSION OF ELISHA. 2 Kings 2:1-2; 2 Kings 2:6-14. 1. The main theme of 2 Kings 2:1-14 is not so much the whirlwind, which is only cursorily mentioned (2 Kings 2:1), but rather the matter of succession. Nicely poised between the end of the reign of one king (2 Kings 1:17-18), and the ...read more

    The Nearness Of God.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 27, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,223 views

    Popular religion speaks about man reaching up to God. However, the reality is that God is reaching down to us. Yes, Christ is stretching out His arms to us upon the Cross.

    THE NEARNESS OF GOD. Isaiah 65:1-9. People sometimes talk about somebody who ‘found God.’ God was never lost; it is people who are lost. When the prodigal son returned to his father, the father said, ‘this my son was lost, but now is found’ (cf. Luke 15:24). Yet, in their distress, ...read more

    The failure of our efforts and the glory of Christ's work.

    COME LET US REASON TOGETHER. Isaiah 1:10-18. Isaiah addresses his congregation as “rulers of Sodom” and “people of Gomorrah”, and begins to reason with them (Isaiah 1:10).

    PREACH THE WORD. 2 Timothy 4:1-5. Paul has just given Timothy the assurance that “ALL Scripture is out-breathed by God and is profitable… that the man of God may be” complete, fully equipped for whatever work God has for us (2 Timothy 3:16-17). “I charge you therefore before God,” ...read more

    He does not allow our foot to slip.

    A SPACIOUS PLACE. Psalm 66:1-12. The superscription to this Psalm is addressed, “To the chief musician. A Song or Psalm.” Whether sung or spoken, it is a call to all nations to “Make a joyful noise” to God (Psalm 66:1). Which God? Well, compare Psalm 100:1, where YHWH, ‘the LORD’ is named. ...read more

     | 7,275 views

    Every Christian is expected to wear the righteousness of Christ as a garment if one would enter into the kingdom of heaven.

    Prayer is our communication line to God. Let us keep it always open, operative, and if possible, busy. God is very eager to respond to our prayers more than we are eager to receive the answer of our prayers.
