    The church ought to pray with great expectation because (1) God sees our trials, (2) God hears our prayers (3) and God will take care of our enemies.

    Acts 12:5 “Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him.” The graphic scene of Acts 12 is not strange to the Church. The church has always faced opposition. Since its inception, the devil has been trying to stop the church and even to ...read more

    Breaking 100 coconuts, burning 100 candles, writing prayer request 1 lakh times, rolling beads, climbing the steps with an offering on the head, shaving your hair would do no good in Christianity.

    Prayer points! 1 Thessalonians 5:17 ”Pray without ceasing.” When we want certain things desperately, why not pray desperately? That’s my question! We wait desperately for a promotion, job, partner and what not; yet, we fail to desperately pray because we are doubtful of the ...read more

    13Are any among you suffering? They should pray. Are any cheerful? They should sing songs of praise. 14Are any among you sick?

    This series is based on the movie, War Room. This lesson is a reminder of God's Expectation of our prayers. It is not, "If" but "When" we pray.

    1. A few weeks ago I attended a conference put on by "Strategic Renewal." While I was there I purchased a T-shirt with the slogan, "Make the Church Great Again." Perhaps one of the ways God will make the church great again is through the prayers of His people. 2. We know that God is anxious to hear ...read more

    "Trust in the Lord, lean on him don't be afraid, our God is near" an old song reminds us to continue our trust in the Lord. Because the one who began his good works (Eph 2:10) in us surely would finish at the right time.

    Dear beloved, Knowing God is necessary for a Christian living! more than that Knowing God's greatness is mandatory! according to Psalm 145:3. For the psalmist says, greatly praise the greatness of God, which is never ending. In this year 2022, if you are still reading my series, I'm sure ...read more
