    A look at the prayers of the early church

    Prayer I love the definition of prayer found in the Devils Dictionary, written by Ambrose Bierce around the turn of the century, you ready? To ask the laws of the universe to be annulled on behalf of a single petitioner confessedly unworthy. I have no problem with that. We all believe in the ...read more

    If you were to ask my why revival tarries, whether it be your own personal revival or a corporate church-wide or city-wide or nation-wide revival, I would say it is because we don’t want it badly enough.
