    This is the first time Jesus taught his first disciples about prayer. His first lesson was, “Spend time alone with the Father in prayer.” If we don’t follow his first lesson, we are not following the example or the command of Christ.

    "But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you." Matthew 6:6 A little boy was saying his bedtime prayers when his mother passed by his room and stopped to listen. “Bless Mommy and ...read more

    In Noah, we see an example of how to ride out the storms of life. We are to place our trust in God and become righteous as Noah was. We become righteous by accepting the sacrifice of Jesus Christ for our sins and having a relationship with him.

    based on 5 ratings
     | 35,408 views

    Growing in understanding of how God wants us to live and to become an example for Him is what growing in Christ really means. To magnify Jesus while he was in the body is what Pauls main goal was....That should be our goal also.

    How does God want me to live? All of these questions revolve around our memory verse: James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

    Jesus is always our example. At the last supper, he showed us service -- even to the one who would betray and the one who would deny. Here we see the Servant; the Served; and the Significance so we can do likewise.

    Saul’s conversion into Paul is an example of the fact that no one is too far from God or too far beyond God’s reach or God’s power to save, to transform a person, and give them a new heart … a heart for Him alone.

    Today, doctors can literally give you a new heart … well, new to you at least. It once belonged to someone else. Someday medical science may be able to give us a mechanical heart … but I truly believe that only God can give you a change of heart. When I say that, I’m not talking about this ...read more
