And they were both righteous before God, walking blamelessly in all the commandments and statutes of the Lord. But they ...read more

    Paul’s desire which should also be our desire. 1- He had the desire to see people saved 2- He had the desire to preach the gospel

    Healing Prayer: Do What Jesus Did

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Mar 5, 2014
     | 5,462 views

    In our discipleship we are called and encouraged to go and to do what Jesus did. This talk helps us to go and pray for healing as Jesus did.

    If Jesus gets to pray for a person twice how many goes do we get? If it took Jesus two attempts to heal to heal a blind man how many attempts do we get? I believe that every incident and event, every parable and sermon illustration in the gospels – and today we’ve heard from ...read more

    God is willing, ready and available to listen to us and answer us when we pray. Are you willing, ready and available to pray?

    There is a God that answers prayers and His name is Jehovah El Shaddai. There is no prayer request that is too big, complex or complicated for Jehovah El Shaddai to handle. Neither is there any request that is too small, trivial, mundane or inconsequential for God not to give His attention to. ...read more
