    Daniel is shown to be a man who depended on the Scriptures and prayer, the secret of his relationship with God, equiping him for a prophetic ministry.

    DANIEL 9 - A PRAYER AND A PROPHECY There are two themes in this chapter - prayer and prophecy. The setting of the narrative is in the reign of King Darius of the Chaldeans. Daniel was a thinking person and he began to wonder what lay ahead for his nation, and as he did this, he revealed the kind ...read more

    The Lord’s prayer is our starting point in learning how to pray effectively. Many points are included in these few verses to help us see our prayers answered and our life protected from sin.

    April, 2007 The Lord’s Prayer Matthew 6:9-15 INTRODUCTION: Every Sunday a part of our worship includes praying, “The Lord’s Prayer.” We would feel that there was something missing in the prayer time if this part were omitted; but do we know what we are praying or are we merely repeating words ...read more

    Life would be so much easier if we would only pray.

    THE PRIORITY OF PRAYER Text: Joshua 9:1-27 Introduction 1. Illustration: The roof of the church hall of a little Swiss church, at the turn of the 20th century, was falling down.

    Why would Jesus pray to have the "cup" taken away, if He knew that wasn’t going to happen? Was His prayer simply an excercise in futility, or was there something more to it? I learned some surprising truths as I prepared this sermon.

    OPEN: A minister noticed a young boy kneeling off to the side of the room after youth group and praying very fervently. As the preacher came within earshot of the boy, he was surprised to hear the boy saying: "Tokyo, Tokyo, Tokyo." After the boy finished his praying the preacher approached him ...read more

    Prayer Warfare

    Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 15, 2021
     | 4,456 views

    In Ex. 17:8-13 we see prayer warfare in action: the battle was not determined by who had the superior force or the best trained men. The battle was decided in the spiritual realm. Prayer was decisive. It still is!

    PRAYER WARFARE Exodus 17:8-13 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. I remember the story of the lady who locked her keys in her car. She was parked right along a street. She didn’t know who to call, so she just prayed, “Dear Lord, I need you to send someone to help me get into my car. And if you can, send ...read more

    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!

    WRESTLING IN PRAYER Col. 4:12 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR - Crazy Kids Prayers 1. One boy was asked to pray for the dinner meal, and after closing his eyes he began: “I pledge allegiance to the flag…” 2. Brett Lutz tells that when he was growing up, his church beside train tracks.

    You may have heard this term before but were not sure what it meant. In the simplest of definitions it's praying for someone else or on someone else's behalf. We should be interceding to help others both in our everyday lives and in our prayer lives.

    INTERCESSORY PRAYER INTRODUCTION: You may have heard this term before but were not sure what it meant. In the simplest of definitions it's praying for someone or on someone's behalf.

    “Don’t You Know Who I Am?” 1) I’m your servant: imitate my humble service. 2) I’m your Lord: anticipate your heavenly crown.

    “Don’t you know who I am!?!” You wouldn’t be surprised to hear that from someone standing at the executive class check-in who isn’t getting the kind of service he thinks he deserves. Of course you don’t have to be a minor celebrity or a high-powered CEO to demand: “Don’t you know who I am!?!” You ...read more

    Fear walls us in and makes us like the servant of the Master that buried the talent he had been entrusted with in the ground. Faith sees ourselves as gifted and bold in Christ.

    Today’s lesson finds a man digging a hole in the ground. We learn that a man going on a journey entrusted a portion of his wealth to three of his employees. Two of the three employees invested their wealth and received commendable returns. The third was afraid and hid his in a hole in the ground. ...read more
