Teach Us

Luke 11:1 (KJV)

1 And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him, Lord, (teach us to pray), as John also taught his disciples.

*We Spend 12 years in school so that someone would Teach Us!

*2-6 years in college-

So that someone would Teach Us!

*Trade Schools and Training-

So that someone would Teach Us!

And Yet “The” Most Useful Tool- “PRAYER”

We spend very little time Perfecting It!

Or Practicing It!

Only at Funerals and Hospitals and During Crisis…

The Single Most Powerful Weapon is “Prayer”

Don’t Wait for an Emergency!

Pray Before Hand and then Emergencies will not Overwhelm You…

Prayer is like riding a bike the more you do it the better you get….

When The Average Man Prays

James 5:17 (KJV)

17 Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months.

*God Knows Thoughts

But He Listens to Prayers…

God is a Discerner of

Thoughts and Intents-

Yet He answers Prayers…

When You Pray-

It Is the Game-Changer!

The Average Man has an Above Average Power

At His Disposal…

PRAYER…

Never Give Up

Luke 18:1 (KJV)

1 And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;

He said “Pray and not to Faint”

Or In Other-words-

“Don’t Give Up”

-God Hears

-God Answers

PRAYER…

Don’t Give Up On Prayer!

When You Get A True Revelation of “Prayer”

*You will start Praying before you try anything else…

Most “Pray” Once They’ve Tried Everything Else!

To give up and or to be exhausted and hopeless only comes because we haven’t “Prayed” 1st

Prayer Strengthens…

Prayer is More Powerful than-

⁃ Money

⁃ Friends

⁃ Family

⁃ Power

The devil knows this so he gives you just enough hope in one of these so you won’t pray….

1 Peter 4:11

Being Prepared is Not Enough

Proverbs 21:31 (KJV)

31 The horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the LORD.

God Expects Preparedness and Yet He Also Expects Us to Understand That “SAFETY”

Only Comes from Him!

Ahab was a king well prepared for battle and even disguised…

And Yet an unknown man without aiming drew his “Bow At Venture”

Ahab died…

Safety is of the Lord!

Jesus proclaimed that no man can pluck you out of the Father’s hand-

Safety is of the Lord!

Doing What We Are Able to Do-is a possibility….

But-

Safety is of the Lord!

Don’t Get Hung!

Luke 21:34 (KJV)

34 And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.

Luke 21:34 (AMP)

34 But take heed to yourselves and be on your guard, lest your hearts be overburdened and depressed (weighed down) with the giddiness and headache and nausea of self-indulgence, drunkenness, and worldly worries and cares pertaining to [the business of] this life, and [lest] that day come upon you suddenly like a trap or a noose;

1 Peter 4:11

Being Alone is a Disaster

Job 9:33 (KJV)

33 Neither is there any daysman betwixt us, that might lay his hand upon us both.

The foolish say, I have no need of anyone!

Job was faced with this reality in the middle mounting disasters.

He saw no way out…

He was crying out for a mediator between himself and A Sinless God…

Man’s need of mediator, is essential. Yet it is not his prerogative.

What hopelessness for Sinful man, to stand before a Sinless God?

There must be a Daysman or Mediator or we would be destroyed and denied access!

One Day You Will Need Someone…

Jesus is That Mediator

That Permits You Access

To a Sinless God!

Jesus Provides Us Hope

As He is Our Advocate!

Through His Blood He Has Purchased Us The Hope of a “Daysman…”

God Does the Impossible

Psalms 51:7 (KJV)

7 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

The devil is always reminding us of what we can’t do!

God is always reminding us what He can do!

When you’re finished trying to clean yourself and wash away the blackness of sin-

Realize He Can Do What No Other Can Do-

God Does The Impossible!
