    Teach Us To Pray

    Contributed by Gaither Bailey on Jul 28, 2007
     | 2,579 views

    This sermon answers three questions about prayer: Why? How? and What?

    Luke 11: 1 – 13 Teach Us Intro: It seems to me that science and technology have brought our society to the point that we feel we don’t need God. Churches in most communities are sparsely attended while others are converted into private dwellings and restaurants. Some people believe they have ...read more

    This is a follow-up on "Choosing the Good Portion," (Luke 10: 38-42). Our faith and attitude intertwine to affect our outlook on life, on our relationships with others and with God, and are the necessary components of effective prayer life.

    Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, have you ever been in a situation where you thought everybody would agree with you only to receive immediate comments to the contrary? I found that out last Sunday when we talked about choosing the good portion and I used the illustration of Kentucky Fried ...read more

    In Jesus’ teaching on prayer, we learn that "prayer is not asking for what we think we need but asking to be changed in ways we can’t imagine."

    Luke 11:1-13 “Beyond Asking” INTRODUCTION Where did you learn how to pray? Our parents may have taught us bedtime prayers, or said grace before meals. We’ve heard about prayer in Sunday school and sermons. Prayer has been demonstrated in worship services. We may have even taken a class on ...read more

    God speaks in dreams, visions, impressions and thoughts, or so writes the writer of Proverbs. But how can you tell if the voice is really Gods. Use these seven steps to test the Spirits. (Portions from a published sermon by Rick Warren)

    Introduction I. We are working through a series on how to hear God’s voice. A. Hearing the voice of God is something that every believer wants to do, at least that’s what we say. B. Hearing the voice God, at least in this lifetime is not always easy though. II. When we read the Bible, and if ...read more

    Praying Like Jesus Series

    based on 10 ratings
     | 10,586 views

    Prayer needs to be the primary way we encounter God and grow in our relationship with Him. Jesus modeled and taught on prayer, particularly through the model of “The Lord’s Prayer.”

    Last week I shared our need to get connected to God, the only way to experience an abundant, fruitful life is to get connected to God. We get connected to God through Jesus. The Scripture passage we used last week was Jesus’ words, “you cannot bear fruit unless you remain (abide) in me.” The ...read more

    Seeking God's Heart - Lord's Prayer Week 2 Series

    Contributed by Matthew Stoll on Nov 29, 2006
    based on 7 ratings
     | 7,179 views

    Our prayer life must begin with our relationship with our heavenly Father. God wants us to spend time in his presence even before anything else so we can know his heart. Only afterward should we pray for our needs and the needs of others.

    Last week we looked at how prayer is one of the primary ways in which we stay connected to God, or the way Jesus said it, to abide in him, or to be in a relationship with God. All of these terms describe the same thing. Prayer was how Jesus stayed connected to God his Father when he walked the ...read more

    Submitting To God's Authority - Lord's Prayer Week 4 Series

    Contributed by Matthew Stoll on Nov 29, 2006
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,813 views

    When praying for God’s will and kingdom to come, we are actually asking God to use us. We submit to his authority.

    When we look at Jesus’ ministry, particularly from the gospel of Luke, we find one of the single most important practices in Jesus’ life was prayer. Luke’s gospel tells us he “often withdrew to lonely places and prayed (Luke 5:16).” Prayer was Jesus’ regular practice, but what did Jesus pray? We ...read more

    God is generous and invites us to pray for our needs.

    Over the last four weeks, we have been focusing on the Lord’s Prayer as Jesus’ model for our prayers through our series, “Lord, Teach Us to Pray.” So far we have looked at three areas of prayer: relationship, honoring, and yielding. In fact repeat these after me [say them again]. Prayer is about ...read more
