    Is it selfish to pray for one's needs first?

    Jesus Prays for Himself John 17:1-5 The prayer Jesus offers in the 17th chapter of John has often been called the Lord’s prayer in the sense that the one He taught the disciples on the Sermon on the Mount is more rightly “The Disciple’s Prayer. The prayer that Jesus offers at the end of the ...read more

    In The Lord's Prayer Jesus begins in recognising: Who God Is... Where God is at... and What His name Represents. In other words He acknowledges: 1) The Person; 2) The Place; And 3) The Position of our Lord. Let us now look to His example in Prayer.

    Can our prayers really change an all-powerful and all-knowing God’s mind? How does prayer work? We’re going to see prayer in action as we examine a prayer offered by Abraham to the Lord. He prayed boldly and the Lord responded. What can we learn from that prayer about the prayers we offer?

    Nearly 1000 years after Abraham lived, the Lord wrote through the psalmist, “Call on me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you will honor me” (Psalm 50:15). The invitation was not a new one from the Lord. It was an invitation that God had extended to his people from the beginning of ...read more
