    Pray Boldly!

    "Your will be done on earth as in heaven." We may not say the exact words but many of our prayers could be summarized with the words, “please let my will be done.” What's the answer to this paradox of prayer?

    “Your will be done on earth as in heaven.” In the prayer we affectionately call the Lord’s Prayer we refer to that phrase as the Third Petition. Remember that a petition is specific request. There are seven petitions in the Lord’s Prayer as we pray it. After addressing God as our Father in ...read more

    To conclude this study of the Beatitudes, the text in Matthew 5:3-10 is used as a TEMPLATE for prayer. Praying Scripture is a powerful way to apply truths to our own lives and reinforce our understanding of the passage.

    PRAYING SCRIPTURE To complete our study of the Beatitudes, we will now use this portion of Scripture as a template for prayer. Learning to pray Scripture will strengthen your prayer life significantly. Some of you may have already learned to use the Lord’s Prayer in this way. That is the most ...read more

    Samson is one of the last Judges that God used, yet he was not always walking the right path. He is not remembered for his victories, but for his failures.

    “Samson Prays” Judges 16:28 Hard lessons to learn when we disobey the Lord. Samson is one of the last Judges that God used, yet he was not always walking the right path.

    In a recent morning devotional, I read Daniel 9 and focused on his prayer for my prayer in verses 1-19. He read Jeremiah’s prediction of the seventy-year captivity and calculated that the time was near for the Jews to return home. He prayed earnestly with fasting, sackcloth, and ashes. Let’s make ...read more

    Many people question the purpose and effectiveness of prayer. Often, prayers not answer in the method we would prefer, or in the time frame we would like, are mistaken as unanswered prayers. In this message, I attempt to give a biblical response to the question, "Why Pray?".

    Biblical Answers to Life’s Tough Questions: Why Pray? Phil 4:6-7 People have asked the question before, “What is the point in prayer?”. Their argument is that, if by praying we can change God’s mind, then He isn’t sovereign. If he doesn’t change His mind, then He is superfluous. Many people ...read more
