    A call to prayer for the US - useful for a 4th of July type message, but not limited to that. Prayer for our nation is biblical, necessary, and a regular practice of the citizen of the Kingdom of God

    It’s the time of year still that you have to keep an eye on the weather. I’m a fan of Doppler radar, and of smart phone technology. I have an app now that tells me how many minutes it will be before it starts to rain where I’m at, and then it tells me how long the rain will last. ...read more

    Praying The Lord's Prayer

    Simple outline of the Lord's prayer. I used this to share notes and then pray on each topic. We called this our Look Up! service.

    Begin with Praise – This is where true prayer begins. Mat 6:9-13 In this manner, therefore, pray: Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. Too many times we begin our prayers with selfish request. Focusing too much on self. Surrender – This is where we surrender to God’s will and ...read more

    This sermon uses Ephesians 3:14-21 to give biblical teaching on the NEC core value of Praying And Worshipping where we seek “To rely on the power of God by being a community which glorifies God in all that we do.”

    Note that I preached on our Core Values in 2010 - four of the six messages were very different to what was preached then, but this one is very similar.

    Praying With Jesus: Hallowed Be Your Name Series

    Contributed by Vic Folkert on Apr 15, 2019
     | 5,337 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

    we should be in a continual state of prayer and communication with God! Our prayer life is our umbilical cord and life support system, that makes our measure of faith God has given to us, radioactive for every circumstance we encounter!

    There is not telling as to the extraordinary outcomes when the church comes together to pray. The only way we can assure in a revival, and the powerful move of the Holy Spirit is through prayer.

    We read in Acts 4:31, “When they finished praying, the place where they were meeting was shaken. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to proclaim God's message with boldness.”(GNB) As the believers in the early church met together for prayer there was a mighty manifestation of ...read more

    The way I want to attack this conversation is by looking at 3 statements: 1) What Prayer Is 2) What Prayer Can Do 3) When the Church Prays (6 awesome things happen)

    What Happens When The Church Prays Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up. He said: “In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor cared about men. And there was a widow in that town who kept coming to him with the ...read more

    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.

(KJV) In the above mentioned verse, the Lord declares that He will raise up ...read more
