prayer two people
[Prayer] is the link between God's inexhaustible resources and people’s needs...God is the source of power, but we are the instrument He uses to link the two together.
jesus prayer kingdoms
The amount of time we spend with Jesus - meditating on His Word and His majesty, seeking His face - establishes our fruitfulness in the kingdom.
prayer thinking order
Stop for a minute and think about how you typically interact with God. If prayer time is dominated by your own talking, some adjustments may be in order. Just as the Lord spoke to David, God also has many things to say to you, if you'll simply let Him speak.
prayer determined life-is
Your life is going to be determined by your prayer life.
prayer voice discipleship
His voice leads us not into timid discipleship but into bold witness.
prayer flesh gods-will
God will never tell us to do something that gratifies the flesh.
faith religious prayer
God allows us to dace difficulties so that our faith will be stretched and refined. The trials we face provide an excellent opportunity for us to declare our dependence on God and not on ourselves. The way we win the battle with discouragement is by humbling ourselves before God and telling Him that we need Him. There is only one way to do this, and it is through prayer.
prayer heart mind
God wants us to seek Him more than anything else, even more than we seek answers to prayer. When we come to God in prayer, sometimes our hearts are so full of what we want that we leave God out. Our minds become consumed with the gift rather than the giver.
strength time prayer
We can be tired, weary and emotionally distraught, but after spending time alone with God, we find that He injects into our bodies energy, power and strength.
children fighting people
Nations fight against nations, in marriages people fight against each other, children fight against each other. We are in warfare, in a national warfare, and in warfare with each other and with ourselves.
differences law grace
Relationship is the difference between grace and law.
spiritual victory knees
Whatever brings you to your knees in weakness carries the greatest potential for your personal success and spiritual victory.
forgiving down-and faces
Understand that it is often unwise to forgive face to face. This tends to make the other person feel 'put down' and make you look holier-than-thou.
wisdom jesus son
God has loved you since before you were born-so much so that 2,000 years ago, He sent His Son Jesus to die in your place.
