    Two Revealing Prayers Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 28, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 4,547 views

    This passage records two prayers, in which are shown two kinds of hearts, whose contrast is not only seen in the way they make their requests, but also in the way they approach God. Some people trust in themselves; others trust in God.

    WHAT GOD'S WILL IS NOT 1. God’s will is not something that you find For some reason we tend to have this idea that we must discover God’s will for our lives. That’s not how it works. God is the one who finds YOU. Abraham did not choose God; God chose Abraham. David did not choose to become ...read more
