    Developing A Life Of Prayer

    Contributed by Brad Bailey on Sep 22, 2006
    based on 5 ratings
     | 3,086 views

    Prayer is at the very core of spiritual life. Despite how many people speak of praying as a part of their lives… I believe that a life that lives out of a center of prayer is challenging for most of us.

So it shouldn’t surprise us what we find the disciples of Jesus coming to him about in Matthew 6. They might have asked ...read more

    We are hearing alot these days that prayers are worthless; just meaningless platitudes. This message refutes those claims and shows through Scripture that when a Christian prays, things really do change.

    Prayer That Avails Much Scriptures: 2 Chronicles 7:12-16; James 5:13-16; Acts 12:5-10 2 Chronicles 7:12-16 says, “And the LORD appeared to Solomon by night, and said unto him, ‘I have heard your prayer, and have chosen this place for Myself for a house of sacrifice.

     | 3,306 views

    Reading 1 Kings chapter 18, we see the necessity and intensity of prayer that brings about outstanding miracles and solutions.

    A. It is prayer that activates the fulfilment of God’s promises: The title of this message includes the word ‘necessity’ because: ? Although God had promised rain in 1 Kings 18:1 that He would send rain, Elijah still needed to pray before the fire fell and before the rain came. ? Although the ...read more

     | 171 views

    Communication is the lifeline of any relationship. Prayer is a mighty weapon given by God so that we could communicate with Him each day. I have realised that more than we our God is more interested in communicating with us. And Prayer is such tool that bridges the gap between man and God.

    1 Chronicles 4:9, 10 talks about the Prayer of Jabez. Very significant Prayer by an insignificant individual. The name of Jabez appears only twice in the Bible, yet his Prayer is well looked upto. In 1 Chronicles 2:55 the term Jabez is referred to a place. The literal meaning of the word Jabez ...read more

    I’ve preached on prayer many times and I’ve tried to do it in such a way that you will be able to easily remember how to pray and to be motivated to pray. Yet I don’t think we are taking full advantage of this most powerful and useful resource we have as Christians. So, I am beginning a four week ...read more
