     | 5,601 views

    Praying for one another is a powerful weapon in our arsenal because it brings us into the very presence of the most powerful Being in the universe and HE is able.

    1. Are you ready for his return? A young woman was expecting a date. She was dressed up and waiting patiently. However, by the time he was an hour late she figured she’d been stood up.

    Nehemiah’s prayer shows us a very critical fact: Prayer is ALWAYS the right answer to what is going on in life. Whether you are facing a hardship, or a need for renewal, or asking for God's intervention -- prayer should always be our first response.

    Nehemiah’s Prayer Nehemiah 1:1-11; Deut 30:1-10 Introduction - Nehemiah is a great study of leadership, but also of obedience to God - Here is the critical thing to see this morning: prayer is always the right response -- Re: Lots of us will go through life acting and solving … ...read more

    Childlike Prayer Series

     | 28,844 views

    A lot of people think if they just had the right "formula" for praying that God would hear them. But that's not true. God's not impressed with your form, He's impressed with your childlike faith in prayer. So, how can I have that kind of faith in prayer?

    I'd like you to recite the Lord’s Prayer with me: Our Father which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, ...read more

    God wants us to pray at all times and never to get wearied in praying. Jesus demonstrated to us the need for prevailing prayers, and we are to follow His good example.

    Jesus taught a pattern for prayer not a rote one.

    I decided through prayer that we will finish our study of the prayer “lead us not into temptation” next week. I also decided through prayer to do a message on Noah before we go to 2nd Thessalonians. A movie will be released next month about Noah starring Russell Crowe and so let’s be prepared for ...read more

    A short appeal to persevere in prayer.

    IMPORTUNITY IN PRAYER. Matthew 15:21-28. Sometimes in the round of life it seems that we are praying by rote - and sometimes not praying at all, but rather ‘saying prayers’.
