    Can a prayer move the heart of God?

    Recently, my 7-year-old grandson Alonso told me that his daddy, my son, carries around a lot of money in his pocket. I asked him how much and he told me: $1,200!

    This is the 3rd study in the study "God Is On The Job". This study looks at how God’s plan is fulfilled.

    GOD’S PLAN Ruth 3:1-18 Do you ever get tired of waiting on God to do something? You know, sometimes it just seems like God needs a little “prodding” or a little help from us. In fact if we have good intentions, it is o.k. to jump in and help God, right? Of course we know the answer to that ...read more

     | 3,967 views

    Prayer is one of the greatest contributions we can make to advance the Kingdom of Christ. Feel the power of prayers and be blest.

    "Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee…" (Jeremiah 1:5) – since the Almighty being our creator knew us before we were even formed, why do we have to pray to Him submitting lists after lists of our needs & necessities? If God knows what we need, why do we have to bring our ...read more
