Ask & Receive!
“And now, O Lord, hear their threats, and give us, your servants, great boldness in preaching your word” Acts 4:29 [emphasis added]
Through out this week we are going to be praying bold prayers. I want you to think about your life, what are the bold prayers that you need to be praying right now? We are going to lift up our voices together to heaven and pray those bold prayers and we will see the answers in Jesus Name.
In Unity
“But Peter said, “I don’t have any silver or gold for you. But I’ll give you what I have. In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, get up and walk!” Acts 3:6
If You’re Going To Make A Huge Difference In This World You Have To Learn To Be Bold About Prayer and To Pray Bold Prayers. When Jesus left, all His disciples were filled with boldness and prayed bold prayers. In Acts 3, Peter and John were going to the Temple to pray and they met a cripple man by the gate called Beautiful and the man was begging for money. Peter and John Read the rest of this entry
Pray Bold Prayers
“On the day the Lord gave the Israelites victory over the Amorites, Joshua prayed to the Lord in front of all the people of Israel. He said, “Let the sun stand still over Gibeon, and the moon over the valley of Aijalon.” Josh.10:12
When I meet someone for the first time, while shaking the person I ask the Lord who is this person. I do it just for fun and the Lord will tell me who the person is. He is always right and it always surprises me. So I am on a flight and if I am going to be sitting beside a stranger for six to eight hours I want to know who the person is and naturally I ask the Lord. Read the rest of this entry
Bold Prayers
“…at the time …of the evening sacrifice, that Elijah the prophet came near and said, “Lord God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, let it be known this day that You are God in Israel and I am Your servant, and that I have done all these things at Your word” 1 Kings 18:36 [NKJV]
What will happen to the world if God should answer everything on your current prayer list? For some people nothing, only that they will have a bigger house, a more expensive car, or a beautiful wife. Then what? So how do you assess the weight of your prayers? How do you know if you are praying great prayers? Ask yourself this question, what will happen to the world if God answers all your prayers now? This is not to say your prayers up until now have Read the rest of this entry
Stop! Think! Check!
“And now, O Lord, hear their threats, and give us, your servants, great boldness in preaching your word” Acts 4:29 [emphasis added].
Pastor Craig Groeschel says, “What you pray for reflects what you believe about God”. What you pray for tells the story of what you believe about God. So the question is what have you been praying about? Stop, think, and check! What have I been praying for? Ask yourself, what have I been praying for this season because what you pray for reflects what you believe about God. Your prayers show your heart about God. For some people their prayers have Read the rest of this entry
By Faith
“And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him” Heb.11:6
The Bible is a Book of faith and for the next few days we will be learning from the portion we can call the passage of faith because it is most dedicated to faith. Please read and study Hebrews 11:1-40. The Lord bless you with understanding as you read His Word.
Single-mindedness
“Christ is also the head of the church, which is his body. He is the beginning, supreme over all who rise from the dead. So he is first in everything” Col.1:18
Christ is the head of the church and we are His body. You cannot tell someone you like his or her head but you do not like the same persons legs. The Church is the Bride of Christ. Similarly, you cannot say I love you but I do not like your wife. In fact, for me, if you do not like my wife you cannot be my friend. So I check people that do not like my wife and I run Read the rest of this entry
Be Still And Know
“Be still, and know that I am God! I will be honored by every nation. I will be honored throughout the world” Ps.46:10
Jesus needed to pray to live stress free and you are not greater than Him. You need to pray no matter how busy you are. No matter how busy Jesus got, He made it a practice to spend time alone with God. You need to spend time alone with God. Some of us do not even know how to spend time alone with God. Some of us make Read the rest of this entry
Spiritual Insight
“For as I was walking along I saw your many shrines. And one of your altars had this inscription on it: ‘To an Unknown God.’ This God, whom you worship without knowing, is the one I’m telling you about” Acts 17:23.
An altar is a place where divinity meets with humanity. An altar is a place where God [the Maker of the heavens and earth] meets with us [human beings]. Any place God chooses to meet man or man discovers that God is, becomes an altar. Remember the two key things when it comes to an altar are Faith and Sacrifice. Read the rest of this entry
Prayerful Beginnings IV
‘God’s way is perfect. All the Lord’s promises prove true. He is a shield for all who look to him for protection’ Ps.18:30.
‘For who is God except the Lord? Who but our God is a solid rock?’ Ps.18:31. There is neither help nor protection in any other except the Lord. Except the Lord protects, there is no protection in any other. In applying the law of continual coming, we are going to continue in the place of prayer with thanksgiving.
We are going to be praying a covering over our lives, our homes, our children, our marriages, our finances, and God’s Read the rest of this entry
