    God will shake our lives in a good way, when we ask Him for courage and power to do His will.

    Life-Shaking Prayer Acts 4:23-31 Intro: Peter, John, and the other believers gathered together and prayed a prayer that shook the Church.

    Prayer is at the very core of spiritual life. Despite how many people speak of praying as a part of their lives… I believe that a life that lives out of a center of prayer is challenging for most of us.

    Fires and earthquakes may serve to get our attention, taking our focus off the temporary things of this world… but the voice that we ultimately long for comes in quiet places. So it shouldn’t surprise us what we find the disciples of Jesus coming to him about in Matthew 6. They might have asked ...read more

    In order to accomplish the divine command to forgive one another, you must first learn to live your life in prayer and intercession as Jesus commanded.

(Matthew 5:44) Forgiveness will flow freely to a cold world only from a heart that is warmed by God’s love. Praying for those who have hurt you proves that you are a child of God and ...read more
