Faithful in Prayer
Basic Gospel
Published on 09/22/2016
Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer" (Romans 12:12). What does it mean to be faithful or devoted to prayer? Because Christ is our life, because he lives in us, our prayer is a reflection of our relationship. This is actually a part of living out of the Gospel. Prayer is not based on works - it is solely about relationship. Our relationship with God and our relationship with others grows as a result of prayer. It focuses our attention on the initiator of faith - God. We simply respond to Him. * Victoria comments about how important it is to abide in Christ. * God allowed a personally horrible, tragic thing to happen and He expects me to follow Him? * Clay shares his take on prayer. We need to have faith in believing what we have received. * Brad comments about Hebrews 4:9, 10 - entering into the Sabbath rest.
