    In this sermon I share the popular ACTS model of prayer. It is a way of praying which gives us a model to follow when we pray much in the same way that Jesus did when he gave us the Lord’s Prayer.

    Praying For Action, Psalm 46:1 Introduction It’s reported that one Sunday an ol’ country preacher in Mississippi prayed the following prayer just before delivering sermon: “Oh Lord, give Thy servant this mornin’ the eyes of the eagle and the wisdom of the owl; Connect his soul with the gospel ...read more

    The very instant that we turn our hearts to God in humility, sincerity, and faith, we are on praying ground! It is also true, that as Christians, who love God and want to know Him more, we can grow in our understanding of prayer.

There are some conditions under which God will not even hear one’s prayers. The question as to how can one pray effectively is certainly ...read more

    Who’s on your prayer list? We spend more time praying for the saved who are sick than for the unsaved who are lost ... more time trying to keep the saints out of Heaven than the lost out of Hell.

    Praying for the Lost Matthew 9:35-38 Billy Graham once said that he estimated that only 5% of believers had ever shared the gospel message of salvation with someone else.

Therefore be clear-minded and self-controlled so that you can pray.” • There is an end to this world.
