    Praying With Good King Hezekiah

    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

    Be Careful What You Pray For

    We have to remind many people to pray because the devil will see to it that our lives are filled with people and things so we do not have time to even think about praying.

    But some of us do not have to be reminded because there are all kinds of emergencies that come up each day that remind us to pray. Illus: A mother and her five year old son were headed to McDonald's. On the way they passed a car accident. Whenever the mother saw something terrible like that, ...read more

    I first titled this message “Pray right” but I changed my topic because it’s about “praying smart” – we need to be using the wisdom of God to pray the smart way which then touches the heart of God and eventually our hearts!

    This message deals with the difference between “praying” verses just “saying prayers.” Faith is first and foremost a heart issue; but it is not complete until it is express in our actions.

    Mark 11:22-24 01.03.16 Intro We have been talking about prayer. To be a real New Testament church, prayer is essential and foundational. Jesus said, “My house shall be called a house of prayer….”i This is the missing element in today’s church. People interact with people; but are they genuinely ...read more

    In Mark 11:24, Jesus said, “…when you pray, believe that you receive….” This is a key to successful prayer. But what is needed in order for me to pray that way?

    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

    Lord, Teach Us To Pray Series

     | 3,423 views

    The disciples spent an amazing amount of time with Jesus and would have had many opportunities for them to ask him to teach them something. And of all the amazing things they could have asked Jesus to teach them, only one thing is recorded: “Lord, teach us to pray” (Luke 11:1).

    Imagine with me for a moment that you’re one of Jesus’ disciples. You’ve been following him around for a little while now and you’ve seen him do some pretty incredible things…you’ve seen him heal crippled people, you’ve seen him cast out demons, you even saw him speak life into a dead guy. You’ve ...read more
