Prayer Equipper
Here are some ways to grow in your prayer life.
- Spend an hour praising the Lord and meditating on His greatness with someone.
- Confess your sins before the Lord and pray for those in your life who are struggling with sin.
- Make a list of impossible prayer requests and give them to the Lord and watch Him move.
- Pray God's Word back to Him, agreeing with it, and see Him move
- Examples of verses: Ephesians 3:17b-19, John 17:20-21, Colossians 4:2-4
- Go to the Lower Chapel and take a prayer guide and verses from the envelopes on the bulletin board.
- OR go to http://www.ihop.org/ and click on "Prayer Guide" under daily devotional staple resources.
- This is a great way to get started interceding for your friends, family, Ashland University, the nation, and the lost.
Remember what the Lord says about prayer...
James 5:13-16,
Is any one of you in trouble? He should pray. Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise. Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven. Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective. Elijah was a man just like us. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years. Again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth produced its crops.
The blood of Jesus, His Son, paid the way into God's presence and gives us access into the Lord's throne room!
God told us to pray.
He loves you and wants you to come to Him in confidence and with expectation!
expectation of Him... ANSWERING!
Thank you, Jesus, for such an awesome gift!!!!
