Regardez Et Priez (Watch And Pray)

Contributed by James Dina on Mar 31, 2021

Regardez et priez, afin que vous ne tombiez pas dans la tentation. Regarder excite la prière, car chaque ennemi que nous voyons nous fera prier plus sérieusement. De plus, regarder, c’est prier. S’il y a une vraie observation, le regard lui-même est la prière.

Regardez et priez « Puis Il est venu aux disciples et les a trouvés endormis, et dit à Pierre: « Quoi! Tu ne pourrais pas regarder avec moi une heure ? Regardez et priez, de peur d’entrer dans la tentation. L’esprit est en effet disposé, mais la chair est ...read more

An Audience Of One Series

Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Sep 1, 2023

This passage of Scripture teaches us that when we pray to the Lord, and even give monetarily, that it is to be done entirely for Him and not as a public display for others. Every act of worship is to be seen only by an audience of One.

Allow me to share some of the lyrics of this song: “I come on my knees, to lay down before You; bringing all that I am, longing only to know You. Seeking Your face, and not ...read more
