     | 16,522 views

    When Peter was imprisoned in Acts 12, the church in Jerusalem prayed fervently...but not in faith. The results were comical, yet God answered their prayer. This sermons examines the importance of faith in life and especially in our prayers.

    The Prayer Of A Depressed Saint

    Contributed by John Lowe on Apr 30, 2014
     | 5,503 views

    Psalm 13, for instance, presents the prayer of a man in deep depression. I’ll bet that most, if not all of us are depressed from time-to-time. Today, we know that depression may be the result of many different factors.

    April 25, 2006 Title: The Prayer of a Depressed Saint Scripture Reading: Psalm 13:1-6 Introduction: The Psalms gives us a record of the life of God's people, Israel. It tells us of their dealings with our heavenly Father and with other nations. In the Psalms, we find great worship ...read more

    The Abc’s Of Prayer

    Finding peace during a struggle, is like trying to find calm in a hurricane. But just like there is calm in the eye of the hurricane, we can find peace and calm right in the middle of our struggles.

    Illustration by James Chandler It started as a slip up during a prayer before a church softball game. The minister was leading everyone in prayer. As he closed in prayer he accidently said, "In Jesus’ name we play." That phrase caught on and soon others were praying before softball games ...read more

    A Prayer For God’s Will

    When it comes to praying for God’s will, we often find ourselves at a loss for words. Perhaps, the way to make the greatest impact is to ask for a blessing; to pray for the spiritual and material resources we need to enlarge the kingdom.

    I’ve entitled our message this morning “A Prayer for God’s Will.” When we think of God’s will we often have in mind how the Lord wants to use us for His glory; how God wants to include us in His plans and work through us to make an impact for the kingdom. But when it comes to praying for God’s ...read more

    The ability to follow Christ’s commands (to love God and love one another) is only supernaturally bestowed. However, that ability is available to us simply by asking.

    1. The first requirement of a working man’s prayer is the right posture. (3:14-15) 2. The second requirement of a working man’s prayer is the right petition. (3:16-19) 3. The third requirement of a working man’s prayer is the right power. (3:20-21) Our study in the Book of Ephesians has brought us ...read more

    Martin Luther said, "Prayer is not overcoming God’s reluctance, but laying hold of His willingness;" but if we want to lay hold of God’s willingness, we must keep on asking God to keep his word, expecting Him to work in unusual and unstoppable ways.

    Mark Ashton, in his book, A Voice in the Wilderness, talks about a small boy who was writing a letter to God. Christmas was approaching and he wanted to ask God for certain Christmas presents he badly wanted. He began his letter with these words: “I’ve been good for six months now.” But then ...read more

    64th in a series from Ephesians. Our prayer needs to go beyond the superficial and physical and focus on the deep spiritual needs of others.

    Let me begin this morning with a confession. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that the message I am going to share with you this morning is at least as much for me as for any of you. I’m not really speaking to you this morning out of my own experience as much as I am preaching to myself ...read more

    What Is Prayer About

    Contributed by Daren Mitchell on Sep 17, 2012
     | 3,682 views

    Prayer is not an antidote to worry. Have you ever prayed about a stressful situation just to discover that you’re still worried about it? Faith is the antidote to worry. Prayer is about asking God for the supernatural.

    I would like for you to consider for a moment if God appeared to you and said, “The people of Kabul Afghanistan are ready to hear about my Son Jesus and I want you to be the messenger to go speak of His resurrection and offer of grace.” Would you go? Would you go, knowing, that ...read more

    When we are desperate about what to do with our families, we need to identify our central concerns, see that guilt shakes our weak faith, and use prayer to partner with the healing Christ.

    When there is a problem to be solved, we will do everything to solve it except the most obvious and most effective solution. Have you noticed? When something needs to be fixed, we will try all sorts of elaborate, complicated, expensive approaches. But the simplest, most direct, and most effective ...read more
