     | 842 views

    As believers, we are instructed by Scripture to pray for those in authority. This includes government leaders, rulers, and anyone who holds a position of influence. Our prayers are not only for their guidance and well-being but also for the peace, stability, and righteousness of the nation.

    PRAYING FOR THOSE IN AUTHORITY By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: 1 Timothy 2:1-2 "I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession, and thanksgiving be made for all people— for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and ...read more

    Praying like Jesus will mean praying dangerous prayers.

    God’s sovereignty is an incentive to prayer because it assures us that when we pray for things that accord with his will, he’ll gladly do them.

    Let me ask you something. Did you notice who’s at the centre of Paul’s thinking as he begins this letter to the Ephesians? Who is it who takes centre stage in the life of the Church? Who is it that the church is entirely dependant on for their very existence? There’s the answer in the first ...read more

    Naomi Reed writes a regular column in ‘The Pulse’ magazine. The article is called, ‘Pray, Give, Go’. We ought to be praying for mission, we ought to be giving to mission, and we ought to be sending workers into the field.   I think Naomi has missed the most common response ...read more

    Biblical Fasting

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Jul 24, 2017

    Fasting has been misused by mystics and sometimes remained a mystery to many committed Christians. Although opinions are mixed on the issue, I believe we can carve out a Biblical position that, while perhaps incomplete, will lay a good foundation.

Of course he also was a devout Hindu. Later in life he also fasted a lot, becoming thin and ...read more
