NOTE: that was the prayer my son learned at age 5 when he was in a Christian day care many years ago. • At every meal, the kids in unison would say out loud: “God is great. God is good.

    In times of crisis, we are to express the positive through our words and works so that we enjoy the peace of God.

    In times of crisis, like what we are experiencing right now, we usually hear, “Why worry when you can pray?” Prayer allows us to prevail over these trying times. But, frankly, we tend to worry more than pray. One of my favorite verses in the Bible on prayer is Philippians 4:6-9. “Do not be anxious ...read more

    The object of prayer is not the point of prayer - the fellowship with God is and it is in that fellowship, that co-laboring with Christ in prayer, that God works.

    Those who do not believe do not pray. This is a good functional definition of faith. Faith prays, unbelief does not. - John Hardin How should we pray?

    Habakkuk’s prayer is a pinnacle of praise. It is the mountain top destination of a journey that began in the valley of distress & doubt. It is for God’s power & involvement in the world.

    Habakkuk 3:1-7 A PRAYER OF PRAISE [Psalm 77] Habakkuk is a beautiful gem of a book written by a prophet who started out wrestling with God and ended up worshiping Him.

    “Weighted Prayers” Our focus for this month is on revival and I want to suggest to you today that the main reason that our church is not growing as rapidly as we would like is because WE are not growing.

    Since prayer is really just talking to God, then why is it so hard? Some of us have no problem spending a lot of time talking to other people? So why does it take so much effort to talk to God?
