Faithful Prayer


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: Faithful Prayer

Acts 12:5 KJV
Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him.

In this passage theirs was a prayer of faith. Their prayers were made “to God”. This seems obvious, but there are times when it seems like our prayers are designed to be heard by other people, or even by us.
This congregation joined their voices and reached up as one to touch God for their church and for Peter. When we pray, we must pray in faith. Faith is the essential ingredient that marks the difference between answered and unanswered prayer.

The Bible makes these statements about the roll of faith in prayer:

“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,” Heb. 11:6.

“And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive,” Matt. 21:22.

“And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him,”
1 John 5:14-15.

I remind you, that when we pray, we are talking to our Father. He delights in hearing and answering the prayers of His children,
Luke 12:32.

LET US PRAY
LORD JESUS HELP ME TO PRAY FAITHFULLY TO YOUR WILL FOR MY LIFE IN JESUS NAME.
