Sunday Recap, Praying Bold Prayers

When is the last time you prayed for boldness? Did you realize that the very first prayer recorded of the local church, is that of boldness and that early belivers prayed for more boldness.  In fact their utmost concern was to preach Jesus.

"Sovereign Lord," they said, "you made the heaven and the earth and the sea, and everything in them. 25 You spoke by the Holy Spirit…27 Indeed Herod and Pontius Pilate met together with the Gentiles and the people of Israel in this city to conspire against your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed. 28 They did what your power and will had decided beforehand should happen. Acts 4:24-25

Let this be your prayer this week: : Let this be your prayer this week. "Lord ... enable your servants to speak your word with great boldness" Acts 4:24

Sunday Recap: What If Doesn't Answer My Prayer?

When going to the Lord in prayer, scripture clearly states that our horizontal relationships affect our vertical relationship.   God also examines our motives and ultimately His will should matter more than our will.  Today, Pastor Matt examines what is important to remember as we pray.

 13 And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Son may bring glory to the Father. 14 You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it. John 14:13-14
