SEASONED PRAYERS

10/9/2022

 
Our prayers need to be seasoned with the word of God. When we pray using the Scriptures we talk to God in His language, using His way of speaking. With it, brings power. When we pray through the Bible, we are bringing God’s word directly into our prayers and His power into our praying.

PRAY LIKE JESUS

10/2/2022

 
Jesus provided a model prayer for us to pray. Do our prayers follow His pattern? We may call it the Lord’s Prayer, but truly Jesus gave it to us, His disciples to emulate in our own prayers to our Father in Heaven. It’s the Disciples’ Prayer. A prayer that worships God, that confesses our sin, and that covers our cares and concerns and carries them to the foot of the throne.

PRAYER IS SIMPLE

9/25/2022

 
As believers in Jesus Christ, as followers of His Word, we have the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit that changes and transforms us, changes and transforms our desires. One of the desires He brings to light is prayer— talking to God. Prayer regardless of age, IQ, education, and resources, we can all do the same thing— pray. Since God invites and expects us to pray, then prayer has to be simple.

LIVING AN UPRIGHT LIFE

8/21/2022

 
I am sure most of us think we are good citizens— good people doing good things. That we live right and treat others right. Yet, is that the same thing as living an upright life, a life that is in line with God’s word? Scripture reminds us to pursue righteousness. Righteousness is a long word that means to live rightly as God asks us to live. When a woman is healed after 16 years of being hunched over, her immediate action was to praise God! Our lives, how we live them ought to praise God through every aspect of them.

CULTIVATING PRAYER

3/7/2021

 
We find ourselves in the Garden of Gethsemane this week. The prayers Jesus prayed give us insight into His nature, His heart, and His mission on earth. The prayers of Jesus also inform and encourage us in our own prayer lives. In today's message, we dive into the topic of cultivating prayer. Far more important than where, when, and in what position to pray is the fact that Jesus prayed and so should we.
