    The sermon focuses upon the power of prayer

    About a year ago we were introduced to the concept of a three legged stool. We found by examining scripture that their were three necessary functions for God’s church. Do you remember what they were? Committed to the word of God, Worship, taking the time to stop our lives and personally connect ...read more

    Paul gives guidelines for the Colossians in how they can pray for him. In the process, he tells how our prayers can be powerful and effective.

    June 22, 2003 Colossians 4:2-6 “Pray!” INTRODUCTION For the last four months, we have been examining the letter that Paul wrote from his prison cell to the church at Colosse. Here at the end of the letter, just as we would when we write letters, he leaves his readers with the ...read more

    Our prayers should be that of the Publican

    Text: “…everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted” (Luke 18:14). Do you know anyone who has a tendency to exalt himself or herself? Those people who are always praising themselves, applauding themselves or paying tribute to ...read more

    There’s nothing like prayer to empower us against temptation. Look at the prime example!

    Our memory verse this week is Colossians 4:2. You’ll find it each week on the back of your bulletin entitled: Words to Live By. Continue earnestly in prayer, being vigilant in it with thanksgiving. Can you say that with me? “Continue earnestly in prayer… being vigilant in it with thanksgiving… ...read more

    Prayer is easy to neglect due to pressing cares and responsibilities of life. However, prayer is our lifeline to heaven for the resources to effectively discharge those responsibilities and live in the strength of the Holy Spirit.

    Pray!!! Luke 11:1-13 Richard Tow 11.15.15 My assignment this morning is to encourage you toward prayer. In 1 Thess.5:17 Paul told the church to “Pray without ceasing.” Don’t stop praying. Keep on praying. The easiest thing in the world to neglect is prayer. Daily cares and responsibilities of ...read more

    How does God want me to pray?

    We’re going to be talking about four letter words that, when used here in the Church make us cringe, raise an eyebrow or we shy away from because they make us uncomfortable. And I’m not talking about curse words, although we might give a similar reaction. I’m talking about ...read more

    The great thing is that as Christians, we don't have to wait until there is proclamation, or wait for a certain day in order to pray. The call to pray is stated clearly in scripture. One place especially clear is found in II Chronicles 7:14.

    Alba 5-5-2024 PRAY II Chronicles 7:14 This past Thursday, May 2nd, was the National Day of Prayer. A bill was passed on April 17, 1952 stating that: “The President shall set aside and proclaim a suitable day each year, other than a Sunday, as a National Day of Prayer, on which the people of ...read more

    What do we know about Jabez and why did he pray; perhaps more importantly is why did it end up in the Bible?

    “When Jabez Prays” 1 Chronicles 4:9-10 Perhaps one of the most noted prayers is the “Prayer of Jabez.” A book was written by Bruce Wilkinson in 2000 and had over 9 million copies sold. I will not attempt to make a book out of this nor have I read the book; I just know it’s out there. What do ...read more

    When God’s people are suffering they don’t always know how to pray. Thanks to God’s gracious promise that the Holy Spirit prays on our behalf!

    I have many fond memories of my late grandmother. One of my favorites was the way she always argued about who would pay the bill at the restaurant. It would never fail. I’d invite her out to lunch and we’d have a nice visit together until the waiter brought the bill. It was as if my grandma grew ...read more

    Some people will believe early, some later. We are to remain faithful in praying for and witnessing to those who have not believed in Jesus.

    Ill. Persistence * Proverbs 3:5-6 basically says “Trust in God, Stop trying to fit God into your logic. Just look for His hand around you, and then that Hand will guide you.” * But I say, “Lord, that is how I try to live, but…” * What about those we are praying for? What about those around me? * ...read more

    In the following sermon we are going to learn how our “life psalm” ought to be “alternating verses of praying and praising” with the assurance that our requests given in the will of God, though they be might be delayed, will be granted in His power and sovereignty!
