    Saints Pray; Angels Play Series

    Contributed by C. Philip Green on Aug 5, 2015
     | 7,867 views

    When God's people pray, God's dispatches His angels to accomplish His plan. That means our prayers really do matter, so keep on praying until God comes through.

    Some time ago, I came across a prayer from an unknown author that I’ve learned to appreciate more and more the longer I live. It goes like this: Dear God, So far today, I've done all right. I haven't gossiped. I haven't lost my temper. I haven't been greedy, grumpy, nasty, selfish or over ...read more

    Someone said, "The purpose of prayer is to draw us close to the heart of God so that our will, our deepest desires, will be those of God & not our own."

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK TEXT: Acts 12:1-19; Luke 22:42-44 ILL. Pres. Abraham Lincoln, in a National Proclamation of Prayer & Repentance in 1863 wrote, “We have ...read more

    Why we end our prayer by saying, "In Jesus' name, we pray, amen."?

    We usually end our prayer with the words "In Jesus' Name, we pray, amen." Why do we do that? Why don't we say "In the name of one of the Apostles or Father or Holy Spirit" or "In the Name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit we pray," like when we do ...read more

    In Jesus' High Priestly prayer in John 17, He recognized us as His treasured possessions that the Father gave Him. He prayed for our unity and that we might be kept by God's Name and Word until we're with Him in Heaven.

    JESUS PRAYS FOR HIS DISCIPLES John 17:6-19, NKJV INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: NONE ARE SHARP 1.

    God says that we need to pray like Elijah did. But Elijah seems so far above me I'm not sure I could pray with the same power as he did. But apparently I can. Do you know why?

    I read the true story of a couple of men from Alberta, Canada who were driving home late one night. The weather was freezing - well below zero. Somehow, they ran off the road and got stuck in a ditch. And – as far as they could see – there was no one around for miles. They knew they were in danger ...read more

    Jesus prayed that His Church would be marked by joy, holiness, and unity. All for God's glory.

    The Prayer Jesus Prays for Us Text: John 17:13-23 (Give Thanks and prayer) Let’s go ahead and open up our Bibles to the Gospel of John this morning… John 17, and while you’re turning there I want to ask you a question – What should a Christian look like?

    Looking back on the last few months, do you feel like you’ve been praying more, or is it less? Is this a practice that has been strengthened with you, or has it struggled? Has the seeking become less diligent, or the knocking not so confident? A praying Christian is a living Christian!

    In Luke 11:9 Jesus says these words to us, “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.” Simple commands, yet astonishing. For his words reveal the great privilege that we have when we pray. This is the heavenly power that we access whenever we ...read more

    How should Christians deal with the current pandemic at a spiritual level. Dr. Tow looks to the word of God for guidance and points to Daniel's prayer in chapter 9 as a model to follow.

    We have received extensive instruction through the media for managing the coronavirus epidemic. What is needed in addition to that is how to deal with it on a spiritual level. In reality, the spiritual realm drives the material world, not visa versa. The instruction I am about to share is for ...read more

     | 17,258 views

    There is a strong relationship between prayer and God's power over the church and our nation. When we raise our hands in prayer to God, the enemy is defeated. When we lower our hands, we allow the enemy to win the battle. The people of God must pray.

    RAISE YOUR HANDS UP AND PRAY Text: Exodus 17:8-16 (NIV) " 8 The Amalekites came and attacked the Israelites at Rephidim. 9 Moses said to Joshua, “Choose some of our men and go out to fight the Amalekites. Tomorrow I will stand on top of the hill with the staff of God in my hands.” 10 ...read more

    When we look at some less well-known people in the Bible whose names we might just pass over while reading a verse or passage of scripture, you will discover that God has also used many ordinary people in a powerful way.

    Our theme this year is Powerful People and we are going to examine together how God works in and through ordinary people in a powerful way. Some of the people from the Bible we will look at are more well known than others. The Bible is a collection of 66 books and letters, 39 in the Old ...read more

    How We Pray Is Important

    I pray we will fail in our pursuit of happiness and that as our focus transforms from the selfish to the holy we will become more and more in tune with His Spirit, with His mission to reach and serve the world around us for His Son.

    For the last two weeks we’ve been talking about prayer. The first week we discussed Daniel and how he showed us through his story that prayer matters. We discovered that prayer matters because it helps us to rely on God’s mercy. Because it helps us to confess sin and ask for mercy ...read more
