This week Revolution church focused on Prayer. “Prayer is a mighty ingredient in our lives.” Stats show that the average Christian only prays less than three minutes per day.
Why don’t people pray more?
- They are not sure how to pray
- They get bored or distracted while they are trying to pray
- They think their request/needs are too small for God
- They are not sure that prayers make a difference
How should we pray?
- With unfiltered honesty
- About everything that matters to you
- Go to God continually
- Shut up and listen
Scriptures
- Jeremiah 3:3 (call unto me)
- Psalms 5:1 (Give ears to my words)
- Psalms 5:2
- Psalms 5:3 (hear my voice)
- Exdous 5:22 (Moses to God= “I do not understand)
- Matthew 6:5 (don’t pray like hyprocrits)
- Matthew 6:7 (don’t babble like the pagans)
- 1 Peter 5:7 (Cast all your cares upon me)
- 1 Thes. 5:16-18
- 1 Samuel 1:12-13
- 1 Kings 19:13 (a gentle whisper)
- John 10:27 (My sheep listen to my voice)
We need to pray and communicate with God. We are his children and he wants to hear from us.
