Prayer Keys - In Jesus' Name Series

How God Answers Prayer

Contributed by Rodelio Mallari on Dec 31, 2010

Always remember, God’s delays are not God’s denials! Sometimes God denies the original request, to give you something better and greater to make you grow for His glory.

Seven Biblical Laws Of Prayer

Contributed by Rodelio Mallari on Apr 13, 2011

True prayer is not just a one-way monologue. It also involves being still and silent before God and allowing time to listen to Him. Many do all the talking (if not the complaining), when listening to God’s still small voice is a great joy!

Intro: Today we ponder on prayer. Real prayer is our means of releasing faith and submitting our hearts to the Lord’s will. Simply put, prayer involves among other things: Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving and Supplication (ACTS) in the Spirit. True prayer is not just a one-way monologue. It also ...read more

Fighting Abortionist Terrorism With Prayer

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 18, 2009

The proper answer to Satan’s "I shall not serve" and Planned Parenthood’s "Every child a planned and wanted child" is Mary’s "Behold the maidservant of the Lord" and "Be it done to me according to Thy word"
