Note to preachers This sermon is a collecting of verses all about prayer. I used a power point presentation as I preached so the verses easily followed one another. On the power point I underlines where the words were in the plural to emphasise the community fellowship aspect of prayer. ...read more

Contributed by Grant Adams on Feb 4, 2020

To continue means to persevere, endure, stick to it, or persist. That is the characteristics we must live today. So many are quitting, fading away or slipping back. Let's do our part to continue.

The church received the word of God. First, the word must be preached. Not ideas, thoughts, rules, philosophy, etc. Second, the word must be received. Welcome it, believe it, take it in, practice it, hold on to it, hunger for it, share it. Now the key thought is found in vs. 42 and 46, “they ...read more

"God's Family....better Together" Series
