    Prevailing Prayer

    Contributed by Eyriche Cortez on Oct 15, 2008

    In times of crisis, we are to express the positive through our words and works so that we enjoy the peace of God.

    In times of crisis, like what we are experiencing right now, we usually hear, “Why worry when you can pray?” Prayer allows us to prevail over these trying times. But, frankly, we tend to worry more than pray. One of my favorite verses in the Bible on prayer is Philippians 4:6-9. “Do not be anxious ...read more

    There are many prayers in the bible. One small and "difficult to locate" prayer was made famous through the best selling book "Prayer of Jabez". If we look beyond the skepticism and commercilisation of the book and the concept, there are some valuable les

    What is the state of your prayer life?

    Often we cripple our prayers even before we pray them. This sermon deals with ways we make our own prayers less effective.

    “Weighted Prayers” Our focus for this month is on revival and I want to suggest to you today that the main reason that our church is not growing as rapidly as we would like is because WE are not growing. We have to understand that the Christian life is a life marked by constant spiritual growth… ...read more

    Since prayer is really just talking to God, then why is it so hard? Some of us have no problem spending a lot of time talking to other people? So why does it take so much effort to talk to God?

    Purpose: To show that a false commitment to Christ will cause a lack of desire to pray. Aim: I want the listener to be sure that he is totally committed to Christ.

    1. Your thumb is nearest to you. So begin your prayers by praying for those closest to you. They are the easiest to ones to remember. To pray for our loved ones is, as C.S. Lewis once said, a "sweet duty." 2. The next finger is the pointing finger. Pra

    This message considers what happens in a believer’s life when he follows Christ’s instruction on prayer.

    Introduction: This morning I want to address the discipline of prayer. I doubt very much if I have to convince many of you of God’s eagerness to grant our requests when they are in keeping with His will (See 1 John 5:14-15). On the other hand, it probably won’t hurt as we all know that there are ...read more
