    Prayer is a powerful, intimate encounter with God that brings healing, unity, and hope when we approach Him honestly and support one another.

    Some of us walked in today with a whisper instead of a shout. Hearts carry heavy headlines—doctor’s reports, strained relationships, silent worries that keep us wide awake at 3 a.m. You’ve prayed before, and maybe your prayer felt like a paper airplane tossed into a hurricane. But friend, the God ...read more

    The sermon calls us to seek God above all else, finding rest, confidence, and purpose in His presence amid life’s storms and uncertainties.

    Some days the heart feels like a hummingbird in a hurricane—fluttering, fragile, and longing for a safe branch. We scroll and scurry and strive, yet the soul still whispers for something steady. We want a place to rest. We want a Person to hold us. We long for something clear when everything else ...read more

    What should our attitude and praying be like since we have been enlisted in the war-time effort of spreading the gospel?

    As your turning to Acts 4:23-31, I want to read what John Piper wrote concerning prayer. Listen to the imagery that he uses as he describes the true purpose of prayer. “Life is war. That’s not all it is. But it is always that. Our weakness in prayer is owing largely to our neglect of ...read more

    Stay Alert And Pray SermonCentral

     | 3,762 views

    Stay alert and pray, so that you won't fall into temptation. Being alert enhances our prayers, as every enemy we identify pushes us to pray more fervently. Furthermore, being alert is a form of prayer. If we are truly alert, the act of watching itself becomes a prayer.

    In the Bible, Jesus instructs his disciples to "Watch and pray, so that you will not fall into temptation" (Matthew 26:41, NIV). This command holds great significance for believers today. By understanding the importance of watching and praying, we can overcome temptation and live a victorious ...read more

Just as April showers bring May flowers, we need the refreshing rain of God's presence in our lives. Rain has various benefits in the natural world, such as quenching thirst, cleansing, softening ...read more

    It’s important to pray in a way that is not self-centered.

    Introduction: Have you ever thought about how much of what we ask God for in our prayers is very self-centered? For example, I heard about a college student who always concluded her prayers with this simple petition: “God, I’m not asking for myself, but please send my mother a son-in-law.” Or ...read more

    Teach Us To Pray Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Aug 11, 2025
     | 324 views

    Following a time of prayer, one of Jesus' disciples asked Him to teach them how to pray. Luke records an abbreviated version of the Lord's prayer and then includes elements that encourage us to be bold in our prayer, promising provision and presence from God.

    Over the last couple of sections of Luke’s gospel, we’ve considered the importance of loving God with all that we are and loving others. We’ve also reflected on the value of sitting before Jesus in order to just be with Him and learn before we get in to the practice of serving. It seems like in ...read more
