    Praying Without A Sense Of Failure

    Contributed by Nigel Heath on Sep 6, 2009
     | 4,776 views

    When it comes to prayer most of us feel a sense of failure and some of us give up. This need not be. There is no one-size-fits-all method. You can be encouraged and enable in your prayer life.

    COLOSSIANS 4:2-18 ’Devote yourselves to prayer’ PRAYING WITHOUT A SENSE OF FAILURE INTRO One of the great discoveries we make as Christians, particularly when we begin to read the early chapters of Genesis, is that we were created by God, NOT to go it alone -- not to live a life disconnected from ...read more

    Remember My Chains Series

Do you wish you could be free from it? Likely you do. Do you even pray that you might have that limitation removed? I expect that I ...read more

    St. Paul appreciated, and needed his friends. Jesus needed friends. We need friends.

    Almost 6 months after we began studying St. Paul’s letter to the Colossian Church here on Sunday mornings we reach its conclusion. This letter – or Epistle – was probably written between 52 and 56 AD; about 20 to 25 years after the death and resurrection of Jesus; and whereas ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 6,302 views

    There’s more than one kind of prayer; relational prayer, praise prayer, thanksgiving prayer, etc. But there’s also a deeper level of prayer few enter – into the office of intercession for the lives of people, the well-being of the Church, and the destiny of nations!

    Epaphras' Wrestling Ministry

    Contributed by John Gaston on Oct 5, 2022
     | 2,688 views
