    Praying With Purpose

    Contributed by Dr. Jeremy Simpson on Mar 11, 2007
    based on 31 ratings
     | 17,577 views

    The Lesson to be learned here is that prayer which begins with sighing generally ends in singing. We need to pray with purpose. We need to spend each day in prayer to God.

    PRAYING WITH PURPOSE-- PSALMS 5:1-12 Introduction: Those who believe in and practice set forms of prayer can find no justification for such in the Book of Psalms. There is a complete disregard for mechanical praying throughout the book. When you have a burning concern, praying come from the ...read more

    The first thing God will ask us when we arrive home- Did you keep my commandments? In 1 Thessalonians 2: 19 it says there will be an award for such winners.

    Illustration: The man at the lottery stand shouts aloud. Be a winner and go home with millions of dollars. Everyone wants to be a winner and go home rich. But have you wondered if we are really rich in the walk of our life and getting ready to go home as winners. Introduction: The Lord God wants ...read more

    If we really value Jesus Christ, we will value what He values.

    The last time I spoke we saw that what we believe about Jesus Christ is the most important thing about us. How we VIEW Jesus Christ determine how we VALUE Him. Our response to our Lord depends upon our relationship with Him. Now, how do we show our value for Him? Let us read 2 Corinthians 5:14-15. ...read more

    Will The Real Proverbs 31 Woman Please Stand Up Series

    Contributed by Mark Gomez on Jul 11, 2012
    based on 4 ratings
     | 26,147 views

    Getting away from the creation of an impossible woman, in this study we discover that the woman in Proverbs 31 is real and she is everywhere. She is not beyond reach for other women and she is not meant to be a threatening creature.

    The Proverbs 31 woman can be a threatening and foreboding creature. Perhaps that is why so many women have attacked and denied her reality (rejection). Perhaps that is why so many men have held her up as some standard by which all women should be measured (oppression). But the reality is that she ...read more
