    "And shall God not avenge his own elect who cry out day and night to Him, though He bears long with them?"

    Theme: God will see justice done to those who cry to him Text: Exodus 17:8-13, 2 Tim. 3:14-4:2; Lk. 18: 1-8 Today’s parable comes across as a very simple lesson about persistence.

    I would propose to you that God has open ears and is longing to have His children call Him day or night.

    Title: Open Ears Foundational Keys to Opening the Gates of Heaven Introduction: In a book entitled, The Circle Maker, we read, "The Bible is a promise book and a prayer book.

    How To Talk To God

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jul 24, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,529 views

    "Lord, teach us to pray." In response, Jesus gives his disciples and us the model prayer, the "Our Father" or "Lord's Prayer." He continues with strong teaching to be persistent, knowing that God loves us more than we love our own children.

    Luke 11:1-13 How to Talk to God “Chaplain, will you teach me how to pray?” I remember that question like it was yesterday, even though it must have been at least a couple of years ago. It came from a Veteran on our inpatient mental health unit. I marveled at the time how simple and yet ...read more

    "How tos" of prayer, for ordinary humans like us!

    “Searching for Elijahs” James 5:16-18 Where is the God of Elijah? Mired in problems, onslaughts of disappointments, difficulties, we long for miraculous breakthroughs of God, don’t we? And we ask where is God, especially in the time we need Him the most. To that question, the Bible rings out ...read more

    In two parables with the same storyline, Jesus taught us to keep praying and never give up.

    Good morning. As we continue our series on the power of prayer, we are going to look at two of Jesus’ parables on prayer. They are both in Luke, and they are separated by just a few chapters. So please turn to Luke 11, but be ready to flip to Luke 18. There’s a supposedly true story of a country ...read more

    Christ meets the widow in Nain and doesn’t just look the other way like we are prone to do.

    THE GREATEST GIFT OF ALL Announce and Read Text: Luke 7:12-15 Jesus had just come from Capernaum where he had seen great faith in the form of a centurion whose slave he healed.

    Living On A Shoe String

     | 5,404 views

    Stewardship is not a mater of quantity but quality. The widow did not have much but Jesus said "she gave her all".

    Our text today depicts an event in the live of Jesus when He was just sitting back and observing people. He is not keeping tabs on what the people are putting to the treasury, but He is seeing the attitude of the spiritual heart of those who are bring their gifts to God. What is in our heart is ...read more

    When we pray do we expect God to answer? Your prayer releases God’s power to work on the earth.

    July 6, 2008 Morning Worship Text: Luke 11:1-13 Subject: Prayer Title: Praying for Results I suppose that there isn’t a Christian anywhere that doesn’t pray.

    A look at the invitation (and the need) for us to be bold and honest in our talking with God.

    Is it ok to question God? - The presumption is usually that the answer is “no.” - Just sit down and shut up. Just take it. - When you hear people pray, a lot of the praying is very rote and formulaic. It’s pretty rare that you’ll hear someone really bearing their heart to God. It’s even ...read more

     | 8,289 views

    Knowing He was hours from being murdered, Jesus could have used His divine privilege to get out of what was coming, but He didn’t. His prayer in the garden teaches us how to pray in the midst of hardship and how to deal with unanswered prayer.

    24: The Last Hours of Jesus “The Garden” And being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground.” -Luke 22:44 Key Scripture: Luke 22:39-45 Key Thought: Having just been betrayed by a close friend and knowing that his accusers were coming to ...read more
