P.r.a.y. / Y = Yield

Contributed by Jonathan Mcleod on Jan 29, 2007

Prayer is not just about getting; it’s also about giving. Prayer that pleases God is prayer that yields to His will.

There once was a man who had fallen on hard times. He desperately needed guidance. So he decided he would open his Bible, close his eyes, and put his finger on a verse, hoping the verse would reveal God’s will for him. He opened his eyes and looked at the verse he had pointed to.

Jesus In The Lion's Den Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Apr 3, 2022

Let’s fast forward in time around 550 years from Daniel’s day. As we leave our time machine, we have left the ancient land of modern-day Iraq because we now find ourselves in Jerusalem. We arrive at the Mount of Olives at night, just outside the skirts of ancient Jerusalem.

We need a hope that a virus cannot touch. We need a hope that a divorce cannot destroy. We need a ...read more
