First of all, then, I urge that entreaties and prayers, petitions and thanksgivings, be made on behalf of all men, 2 for kings and all who are in authority, so that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and dignity. 3 This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, 4 who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.…
As many of you know I’m going through Professor Horners reading plan and it seems like I have gone through the book of Proverbs five or six times already, and every single time something else pops out at me. I was reading chapter 15 on New Years Day while pondering on the New Year (2013) and how I could do things differently this year from last year. I was reading Proverbs 15:7, 8 and…
I love to wake up early in the morning when it’s still dark out, when the house is quiet and just be alone with God and His word. There is no better place than with God and His word, no distractions and worries of the day about to start. But Jesus Himself would often slip away to the wilderness and pray. Luke 5:16 In the early morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left…
It was really a great Lord’s Day, we had a great time studying the word of God in Romans, the worship was really good, and the sermon was excellent as my Pastor is doing a series on the hard sayings of Christ. It was communion Sunday a time for us to be examining (1 Corinthians 11:28) our hearts before God as we partake in the Lord’s Supper. But here is the glue that binds this…

We had a prayer meeting last night, and it was just a wonderful time in prayer to our great God, with fellowship and communion with Him and His people. It reminded me of one of my favorite puritan prayers Meeting God… Also the truth that my life needs to be steeped in much prayer: Great God, in public and private, in sanctuary and home, may my life be steeped in prayer, filled with the…
I really get excited when I hear talk about the prayer meeting, I love being involved in corporate prayer, I love to listen to fellow brother and sisters praying in unity and with passion, lifting their prayer up to the Lord. I love to be taught how to pray, I learn by their examples, why do you think the disciples said to Jesus ” teach us to pray” In Luke 11:1 we read It…
They were devoting themselves to prayer… That seems to be the prevailing theme throughout the book of Acts, as I shared with you yesterday These all with one mind were continually devoting themselves to prayer, along with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers. Acts 1:14 Churches pray together, I wanted to continue that thought today, but unforeseen circumstances have prevented me from finishing up my study in the book of…
We had a prayer meeting last night and I always come away as though I accomplished something of spiritual value, well actually not I but the Holy Spirit who lives in me… There is nothing like meeting for prayer with fellow believers. I love coming to our prayer meetings because I know prayer is going to be important to the ones that are there. No I’m not saying prayer is unimportant to those who…
The Necessities for Effective Prayer And Jesus answered saying to them, “Have faith in God. 23 Truly I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says is going to happen, it will be granted him. 24 Therefore I say to you, all things for which you pray and ask, believe that you have…
