    God promises us that that when we entrust our concerns to Him through prayer, He is going to give us supernatural peace in return.

    Philippians 4:6-9 THE PEACE OF GOD 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. 8 Finally, brothers, ...read more

    Praying God's Will

    Contributed by Ron Hicks on Sep 13, 2005
    based on 7 ratings
     | 2,550 views

    Praying for the eight ball to go into the corner pocket, for you to be rich and famous, for the right partner to come along, is not praying God’s will for your life. Do you want to be holy, righteous and pure. Now, that’s praying God’s will.

    PRAYING GOD’S WILL James 5:16-17 The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. 17 Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months. Earnestly; 1 serious ...read more

    Wrestles With God

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on May 31, 2006
    based on 26 ratings
     | 7,285 views

    The whole experience of PRAYER is not to wrestle with God over our demands, but to know the heart of the One who seek to bless us and call us to a higher purpose in life, and help us understand our utter dependence on Him for success.

    This picture of Jacob wrestling with a God-man can be considered as one of the most bizarre encounter in the Bible. • He was all alone, having sent his family and all his possessions across the stream. • It was in the night, and he wrestled with this God-man until daybreak. Many see him as a hero ...read more

    Fourth in the series of Christian basics entitled firm foundations this one is called ’Talkling with God.’

    Phil 4:4 – 7. Talking to God You might remember the song by Bobby Mcferrin ‘Don’t worry, be happy!’ We find that most people worry unnecessary Statistics show that; 40% worry over things that don’t happen; 30% of people worry over the past that can’t be changed. 12% worry about untrue criticism ...read more

    Friendship With God

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Feb 6, 2006
    based on 14 ratings
     | 8,869 views

    Prayer is more than just asking God. It is communion between two friends. God seeks friendship with man, for He is an intensely personal God.

    The passage we’ve just read today is prayer – when a man meets God and talks to Him. It is, the Bible says, “as a man speaks with his friend” (v.11). We will not fully understand prayer if we think about it only as something to do with asking something from God. Prayer is not just about ...read more

    Even when everything you are doing seems right, if you don’t seek God’s will you might be doing something wrong.

    An inductive look at frustration and what causes it leading to an exposition of the text and a call to surrender to God.

    1. I’ve learned one thing in my attempts at gardening and landscaping. “You have to get all the roots out to get rid of the weeds.” If not they just keep coming back – over and over again. Weeds can be very frustrating because they keep me from having the flowerbeds I want. 2. Speaking of ...read more

    As Christians, we are to strive after a persistent, ceaseless prayer-life that is built on two-way conversation.

    IT HAS BEEN SAID THAT PRAYER DOES NOT NEED PROOF OUTSIDE ITSELF BECAUSE ITS PROOFS ARE WITHIN. IT IS IN THE NATURE AND FUNCTION OF MAN, LIKE BREATHING, EATING AND DRINKING, AND HE PRACTICES IT AS PART OF HIS VERY BEING. PRAYER IN THE LIFE OF A CHRISTIAN IS ESSENTIAL YET SO FEW MAKE IT SO.
