jesus prayer father
It seems to me that the prayers of the Bible can be distilled into one. The result is a simple, easy-to-remember, pocket-sized prayer: Father, you are good. I need help. They need help. Thank you. In Jesus' name, amen. Let this prayer punctuate your day.
prayer eight people
Pastoring the flock with words. I love that. We always have a prayer time in the middle of our service. We take about eight or ten minutes before I preach, after we've sung, and invite people to come forward for prayer. That's a tender moment to me. I don't preach much in that, but I like to speak to the people.
prayer struggle answers
God is using my struggle. My struggle is the answer to the prayer.
morning prayer thinking
About four days a week, I do pretty good at having a morning prayer time. But even at that, it's a rambling sort of thing. What I have learned to do better is to try to keep my mind turned toward God and ear inclined toward God throughout the day, and I think I'm doing better at that ,but I've got a long way to go.
prayer effort waiting
Waiting is a sustained effort to stay focused on God through prayer and belief.
prayer thinking mad
I would love to have a more earnest prayer life! In my life, prayer is the single most difficult discipline. I love God and there's something in me that would rather do things for God than talk to God. I'm not by nature a mystical, devotional person. I like to do things. And so it's a challenge for me to have a faithful prayer life, but I know God loves me and He's not mad at me. He just wishes I would slow down and turn things over to Him. And that's what I think you achieve through prayer.
prayer pebbles doe
Prayer lets God do what he does best. Take a pebble & kill a Goliath. Take the common, make it spectacular! Pray & see what He can do.
prayer giving-up knowing
Faithful servants have a way of knowing answered prayer when they see it, and a way of not giving up when they don't.
prayer missing answers
Don't quit. For if you do, you may miss the answer to your prayers.
prayer request change-god
Your requests change history because your prayers change God!
prayer solutions
God's solution is a prayer away!
prayer without-hope
You're never without hope, because you're never without prayer.
prayer home house
After a hard day scrambling to find your way around in the world, it's assuring to come home to a place you know. God can be equally familiar to you. With time you can learn where to go for nourishment, where to hide for protection , where to turn for guidance. Just as your earthly house is a place of refuge, so God's house is a place of peace.
prayer care genuine
The greater your cares, the more genuine your prayers
