    There are times when we do not know what to pray. Paul gives us an example of what to pray at those or any time.

    A Prayer You can Always Pray Ephesians 1:15-17 S. I. C. C. August 5, 2001 (Morning Service) I would have liked to have seen Paul’s prayer list. It must have been a douse. I am sure he prayed for all the churches he started and for the ones he had heard about and acquired an affinity ...read more

    Praying With Jesus: Hallowed Be Your Name Series

    Contributed by Vic Folkert on Apr 15, 2019
     | 5,227 views

    God's name stands for him. When we pray for his name to be hallowed, 1) We are saying that he is the foundation of our lives, and 2) We are committing ourselves to show his holiness by our worship and actions in the world.

    PRAYING LIKE JESUS: Hallowed Be Your Name In Luke 11:1-2, we read, “One day Jesus was praying in a certain place. When he finished, one of his disciples said to him, ‘Lord, teach us to pray’ … He said to them, ‘When you pray, say: “Father, hallowed be your name.”’ Jesus wants us to pray that ...read more

    When frustration abounds, in prayer we can discover deepened relationships, new possibilities, and ultimately grace.

    For you, my God, have revealed to your servant that you will build a house for him; therefore your servant has found it possible to pray before you. Isn’t that an intriguing phrase? “Your servant has found it possible to pray.” My theme for today is “when nothing seems possible, pray.” “When ...read more

     | 10,537 views

    How is Christian unity different than earthly concepts of unity?

    Jesus Prays for the Unity of His Church John 17:20-26 Today we come to the third part of the Lord’s great prayer. He had prayed for Himself in the upcoming arrest, trial and crucifixion.

    Praying God's Will To Be Done

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Sep 13, 2009
     | 6,104 views

    The necessity of prayer is examined in the light of two decisions God made about man at creation. (1) He made man in His own image with freewill capacity for moral choice (2) He gave man dominion over the earth.

    Praying God’s Will to Be Done Daniel 9:1-3 9-13-09 Intro In Dan 9:13 we have an amazing comment about the nation of Israel, “As it is written in the Law of Moses, all this disaster has come upon us; yet we have not made our prayer before the LORD our God, that we might turn from our iniquities and ...read more

    #7 in Romans 8 - What a Way to Live! series. This is about prayer, how it is a challenge but it’s worthwhile too. And the Spirit helps us to do it. Lots of good illustrations from other sources.

I asked God for health that I might do greater things. I was given infirmity that I might do better ...read more

    Persistence In The Presence: How Women Pray

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on May 22, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,616 views

    Women succeed in pray because they persist in trusting God, allow the whole self to pray, take God at His word, are not afraid of intensity, choose responsibility over religion, and keep their commitments.

    If, as Thomas Edison tells us, genius is one per cent inspiration and ninety-nine per cent perspiration, then I suspect it is also true that prayer is one per cent insistence and ninety-nine per cent persistence. Prayer is one per cent insistence, to be sure; we do, in our prayers, tell God what ...read more

    Sermon # 10 - Pray And Intercede For The Lost Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 2, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 605 views

    We must abide in Christ and those who choose to do otherwise will be cut off. Also the Lord has chosen us so we can lead others into His kingdom. Like Abraham, every believer must also have a burden to pray and intercede for those who are lost without Christ.

    We read in 1 Samuel 2:35, And I will raise me up a faithful priest, that shall do according to that which is in mine heart and in my mind: and I will build him a sure house; and he shall walk before mine anointed forever. (KJV) In the above mentioned verse, the Lord declares that He will raise up ...read more
