    Prayer Keys - Abiding In Christ And Christ's Words Abiding In Us Series

    Contributed by Mark Stepherson on Feb 23, 2012
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,227 views

    Prayer Keys - Abiding in Christ and Christ’s Words Abiding in Us “If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you,” John 15:7. For this prayer key, I prefer the “old fashioned” King James Bible language. Abiding carries ...read more

    Let us dare to channel God’s blessings.
