    Contributed by Elmer Towns on Feb 27, 2026
     | 85 views

    Prevailing prayer is prayer that pushes right through all difficulties and obstacles.

    There are so many distractions in modern life that keep us from praying. There are the cell phones, tweets, Facebook, television at home, and the radio in the car. These are all good things, but they can keep us from praying. How can we listen to God when so many voices demand our attention? How ...read more

    Elijah provides a great example of how God uses prayer to change our lives.

    It has been said about prayer that “Prayer doesn’t change God, it changes me.” Indeed, God uses prayer to teach us some things about ourselves to reveal things to us that can change our lives for the better. This is what God used prayer to do for Elijah. Through prayer, God changed Elijah from ...read more

    Sermon # 29 - The Power Of Corporate Prayer Series

    Something happens when people gather together to pray. The early church experienced this in a mighty way and they witnessed astounding miracles because they prayed together. Only when families and churches pray together will we be able to see a revival in these last days.

    For our meditation I have chosen Act 4:31,“And when they had prayed, the place in which they were assembled was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the Word of God with boldness.” (AFV) It is a fact that whenever we as a church gather and pray together, there will ...read more

    Sermon # 35 - Prayers That Please God Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jul 11, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 429 views

    Are our prayers pleasing to God? What are the things that we ask God for when we go to Him in prayer? May our prayers be faith-filled and our petitions in accordance with God’s will so that our prayers are pleasing and acceptable to God.

    Our meditation for today is based on Ephesians 5:10, “Try to learn what pleases the Lord.” (ERV) The above mentioned verse exhorts us to find out what are those things that are pleasing to God, and to lead such kind of lives that God would delight in. It is an unchanging fact that God loves us, ...read more

    Isaiah demonstrates a very unique position in chapters 63 and 64 as he pleads with God to hear, forgive, and rescue His people. Why? Because he knew that there is no way we (as a creation) could be forgiven without God’s (the Creator's) direct intervention.

    Even though we pray, we may wonder at times: “Why do I pray? What does it accomplish?” Along the way, we may pick up some misperceptions. I want to talk about what prayer isn’t.

    The widow of the parable was pretty frustrated. In the Army, if soldiers feel they’ve been treated unfairly, they have several options: They can use their chain-of-command, see the Chaplain, contact Equal Opportunity, call the Inspector General’s office, or even write their Senator.

    Jonah prayed wrong and selfishly because he did not understand the heart of God. Jesus set the example and taught His disciples how to pray. If we align our lives to God’s will and pray accordingly there will be great transformation in our lives and in that of those around us.

    We read in Jonah 4:3, “Therefore now, O LORD, please take my life from me, for it is better for me to die than to live.” (ESV) As we continue to study about Jonah, there are numerous lessons we have picked up already from the events that transpired in his life. The people of Nineveh repented at ...read more

    DAVID'S PRAYER. Psalm 86:1-17. PSALM 86:1. Whatever troubles the Psalmist was facing, he recognises two things: the greatness of the LORD (YHWH), and his own smallness.
