    A Call For Prayer

    Contributed by Davon Huss on Oct 15, 2013
     | 5,110 views

    A sermon from Romans 15:30-33 on prayer (Outline and material adapted from Alan Carr at: http://www.sermonnotebook.org/romans/Rom%2015_30-33.htm)

    HoHum: Whenever I speak about prayer, I want it known that I speak as a fellow-struggler in the trenches. I’ve never found prayer to be easy. Also, many messages and books on prayer lay a guilt trip on the listener or reader for not praying enough. They tell about how Martin Luther was so ...read more

    The Practice Of Loving Our Enemies (May 22, 2013)

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Nov 4, 2021
     | 1,507 views

    We as Christians should exhibit Christian behavior, which cannot be done without the help of Christ. Turning the other cheek is easier said than done.

    THE PRACTICE OF LOVING OUR ENEMIES Text: Matthew 5:38 - 48 Matthew 5:38-48  "You have heard that it was said, 'An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.'  (39)  But I say to you, Do not resist an evildoer. But if anyone strikes you on the right cheek, turn the ...read more

    In this message we look at the Lord's prayer which follows the request from the disciples for Jesus to teach them to pray. All of us should learn to pray like Jesus.

    “Knocking on Heaven’s Door” Luke 11:1-13 When Jesus set out to call 12 men to follow him, He gathered them together and began mentoring them, discipling them so that they in turn would be able to continue the process. So when Jesus started teaching them, since this was the first ...read more

    We need spiritual rain just like we need physical rain!

    Deuteronomy 11:14-17 Today my prayer is, “Lord, we need rain!” We need the Shower of the Holy Spirit in our lives like never before. During a good rain, vegetation is nourished -- animals are nourished -- the grass gets greener; rain refreshes the land. Rain causes things to grow and be ...read more

    A teaching on the Lord's prayer and the importance of prayer

    Note: One of the influences of prayer has come from Jim Cymbala so if there are similarities it is because I have read many of his books.

    I have prayed and prayed about this matter, but I don’t seem to get anywhere. Doesn’t God hear? If He is listening, why doesn’t He help? Why doesn’t He answer my prayers? Many people often find themselves in that situation.

    Young preacher asked for advice on how he did after the sermon was preached, one old man said “I have three things to say to you.” 1-You read the whole sermon….Boy replied, I guess I needed to more familiar with it. 2-You read it very badly….Boy replied, I couldn’t ...read more

    Even our friends might let us down, but God never will.

    TAKE IT TO THE LORD IN PRAYER. Psalm 55:16-22. PSALM 55:16. King David was no stranger to ‘friends’ letting him down, but his bold assertion in the face of betrayal was: “As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall save me.” The God upon whom he calls is the true and living God, the ...read more

    Five Keys To Answered Prayer

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Jul 17, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,555 views

    Effectiveness in prayer is more than a matter of volume. We pray in the context of our relationship with God. We learn to align ourselves with the will of God so that we are partnering with him rather than trying to persuade him. This message teaches how to pray in faith for results.

    Intro In this message we will review five keys to answered prayer. When we make our requests to God, we are not just fulfilling a religious duty. We are interacting with our Heavenly Father concerning a perceived need. Our petition is not effective until we either get the answer or get counsel from ...read more

    In a series on the Lord’s Prayer, this sermon is the second part of an examination of the meaning of the first petition ’May Your Name be kept Holy’, answering the question ’How do we keep God’s Name Holy?’

    "Pray like this: Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy." (Matthew 6:9, NLT) (SLIDE 2) INTRODUCTION A pastor was building a wooden trellis to support a climbing vine. As he pounded away, he noticed that a young boy that he recognised from the Sunday school was watching him. The ...read more

    What We Learned From A Ping-Pong Marathon Series

    Contributed by Rich Anderson on Feb 15, 2011

    Paul says to dwell on those things that are excellent and worthy of praise. These encouraging words will help us all through any circumstance, any trial or any hardship, as we remember that “all things work together for good to those who love God.”

    How soon we forget, or how soon we don’t forget. I have cherished memories from long ago that I will never, ever forget. Way back in 1975 I learned a valuable lesson about time, and I learned how many hours are in a week. I also learned about the power of prayer and leaning on God to ...read more

    Why do we take the cessationist position on the sign gifts?

    In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus is very concerned that false teaching be acknowledged and corrected. In our last message, we began to look a Christ’s corrective teaching on prayer. During that study, I made a short reference to the subject of speaking in tongues. I noted in that message ...read more

    OPENING: Arthur Tonne tells of an overnight visitor to the White House during the Coolidge administration. Calvin Coolidge was not one of the warmest people to be around - he was well known for his brevity and taciturn nature.

    Second in a three sermon series on prayer.

    As we mentioned last time, our Lord’s disciples had asked Him to teach them to pray (v. 1). The request made by the disciples of our Lord should also be our request of Him, for prayer is the foundational disci¬pline of the Christian life. It is through prayer that we access the power of God, and ...read more

    You can connect to God’s reviving Spirit wherever you are, but we need to be stirred to pray once more for God to revive his Church.

    This past Sunday I preached on revival.
