Praying is Faith in God

Luke 18:1 and 8, “And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint... I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, 
. . . shall he find faith on the earth?”

God's Mind Can Be Changed
(Chapter 1 from Dr. Jack Hyles' timeless book, EXPLORING PRAYER

Philippians 4:6-7, “Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”

Joel Osteen, Fox News, Mocking Prayer And Ignoring The Truth

The shortest distance between a problem and a solution is the distance between your knees and the floor. The one who kneels to the Lord can stand up to anything.


"Satan trembles when he sees the weakest saint upon his knees."
William Cowper

God Needs Your Personality

"Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much."
—James 5:16

A good man is a godly man!

Intercessory Prayer


Prayer works—one way or another— prayer works!

Hebrews 4:16, “Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.”

Lessons On Prayer

Our Faith Is Measured By Prayer!!!
(1st Thessalonians 3:10, “Night and day praying exceedingly...”)

Prayer Is Labor Which Brings Heavenly Rewards

Prayer shows that we cannot handle things on our own!

Consistency In Prayer

I'm enjoying God enjoying
my fellowship with Him!

Why doesn't God answer my prayers? ... He gives us the answers we'd ask for if we knew what He knows.

One Of The Main Reasons Why You Don't Get Your Prayers Answered
(MP3 by Dr. Jack Hyles)

“God in answer to prayer, knows what He's doing. Hey! Hey! Our generation has forgot, that we're in touch with a holy God, that knows the hearts and minds of men—He knows what everybody that walks in that door needs, and He is able to meet that need—The preaching of the Word of God!”

SOURCE: Pastor Danny Castle, a quote from the classic sermon, “Why We Go To Prayer Meeting!

We Have Sinned

“The closer you get to God, the closer you get to the Devil.” —Pastor Danny Castle (sermon, From A Wretch To A Winner!!)

“I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me. ... O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?” —Romans 7:21 and 24

Don't ever think you've arrived! Never think you're holy or sinless. The best Christians can live above reproach, but NO ONE can live above sin. If there's anything good about me, it's the precious Lord Jesus Christ! Amen!

Don't Forget The Hindmost
(awesome MP3 sermon by Dr. Hyles)

Prayer is our dependence upon God.

PRAY FOR WEAKNESS
2nd Corinthians 12:9, “And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee:

 for my strength is made perfect in weakness.

Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.”

Reasoning With God In Prayer

The Secret Place
(MP3 by Attorney David Gibbs, Sr.)

It's Ok Not To Know
What To Pray, Just Pray!

The Problem With The Movie 'WAR ROOM'

Luke 11 (a helpful lesson)

Prayer is letting God know that we know we need Him!

All He Had To Do Was Pray

“There's a heap of sin hidden behind prayer.” Dr. Jack Hyles, from sermon, "The Dividing Asunder Of Soul & Spirit."

“How proud are your thoughts?... I've always believed, that, when people don't pray it's a sign of pride, because evidently then they think they can do it themselves! Humble people are praying people! Why? They know they have to have God!” —Pastor Jeff Owens, “Deceived.”

James 4:2, “...ye have not, because ye ask not...”

What blessings have we all forfeited by not praying? One of the most horrible thoughts I have is one day hearing God say, “You could have had all these blessings and helps, but you didn't pray.”

Preaching And Prayer

“THIS KIND”

James 4:6, “But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.”

Proud people don't pray!

Psalms 90:8, “Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, our secret sins in the light of thy countenance.”
('secret sins' is deliberately doing wrong!)

If You Stop Praying Because God Doesn't Answer, You Are Walking By Sight Instead Of By Faith

(1st Samuel 12:23)

The most powerful position in the world is on your knees before the throne of God.

God's Mind Can Be Changed (Chapter 1 from Dr. Jack Hyles' timeless book, EXPLORING PRAYER

Not praying for others is a sin. 1st Samuel 12:23, “Moreover as for me, God forbid that I should sin against the LORD in ceasing to pray for you: but I will teach you the good and the right way.” There were 10,080 minutes in the past week, did we pray for anyone for even a single minute of that time?

“I would rather teach one man to pray, than ten men to preach; for one man who has
learned to pray, can accomplish more for Christ than ten men that can preach.” —Pastor R. A. Torrey

IMPORTUNITY IN PRAYER (begging God for OTHERS)
Job 16:21, “O that one might plead for a man with God, as a man pleadeth for his neighbour!”

Pray briefly for your own needs . . .
Matthew 6:7-8, “But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.”

Pray at length for the needs of OTHERS . . .
Luke 11:5-8, “And he said unto them, Which of you shall have a friend, and shall go unto him at midnight, and say unto him, Friend, lend me three loaves; For a friend of mine in his journey is come to me, and I have nothing to set before him? And he from within shall answer and say, Trouble me not: the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give thee. I say unto you, Though he will not rise and give him, because he is his friend, yet because of his importunity he will rise and give him as many as he needeth.”

BIBLE PROPHECY

Prayer is LABOUR; God Promises to Reward All LABOUR FOR HIM!

Colossians 4:12 and 1st Corinthians 15:58, “Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord. ... Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, saluteth you, always labouring fervently for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.”

Mark 16:15, “And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.”

“It is impossible to enslave mentally or socially a Bible-reading people. The principles of the Bible are the groundwork of human freedom.” —Horace Greeley

Hebrews 11:6, “But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.”
[notice the Bible doesn't say “hard”; but rather, “impossible” without faith to please God]

You're never wasting your time when you pray!


Is It Wrong To Sit While Praying?
by David J. Stewart

I recently heard a famous Baptist evangelist who is heard on hundreds of radio stations. He criticized believers who sit while praying. He taught that it's only appropriate to pray while either: standing, laying prostrate or kneeling.

My friend, it is ridiculous to scold someone for praying while sitting. Look at the picture to the left. Is that a bad thing? Sadly, faithful preachers today have to spend much of their time exposing the false doctrines of fellow professed believers who are ignorant of the Bible. Biblically, we are commanded to “Pray without ceasing” (1st Thessalonians 5:17). If we are to pray continually, without ceasing, then obviously we are permitted to pray in any and all bodily positions, and at any and all times and situations. God just wants us to pray!

God doesn't want us to have a prayer time; but rather, a life of prayer! Luke 18:1, “And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint.”


When darkness is brought into the light, it loses its power!

Not praying for others is a sin. 1st Samuel 12:23, “Moreover as for me, God forbid that I should sin against the LORD in ceasing to pray for you: but I will teach you the good and the right way.” There were 10,080 minutes in the past week, did we pray for anyone for even a single minute of that time?

Salvation is not doing your best, it is having Christ's best put to your account through receiving Him by faith.

“Do all the good you can. By all the means you can. In all the ways you can. In all the places you can.
At all the times you can. To all the people you can. As long as ever you can.”
―John Wesley
