Being in the Ministry for a few years now cheap air max ireland , I've noticed one major issue that most Christians seem to have trouble with that issue is understanding prayer.


I can not count how many times people talk as if prayer is a foreign thing, or the numbers of prayers will equal success with getting God to move on your part. I too, have struggled with this issue for many years. I use to think that prayer was some form of special God given talent; futhermore, I would try and find someone who I thought could really pray, to pray for me, as if their great prayers could help me in my problems. I can recall seeing a church billboard saying "praying with many tears can move mountains with God." As I was reading this sign, the Spirit of God moved on me and said cheap air max wholesale , "prayer of tears will not make me move, only prayers that are based on the word of God."


With Gods words, hovering in my heart, I started to think about that statement, "Only prayers that are based on the word of God will make God move." I have always tried to base my prayers on what the Bible said, yet with little to no real action from God. So what are prayers based on the word of God. Well, that is what we are going to explore in this newsletter. We will start the process of Understanding Prayer.


First thing I would recommend for you is to forget everything you know about prayer cheap air max trainers , and with this study to start and rebuild your thought and understanding of prayer. Now some might say, Brother Daryl that is a big statement, and I would reply "Yes it is", yet I am almost confident that you, as I was have learned prayer in an religious form, and not what the Bible says prayer is.


Now, there are numerous types of prayer cheap air max , and I will not be going into the different prayers. I want to show you what prayer is, and how you can to start to use prayer in an effective way.


Prayers based on the word of God, are not easy prayers. If you are going to base your prayer on the word of God, then you are going to have to know the word of God. Let's look at


Joshua 1:5-9
"No man will be able to stand before you all the days of your life. Just as I have been with Moses, I will be with you; I will not fail you or forsake you. [6]" Be strong and courageous, for you shall give this people possession of the land which I swore to their fathers to give them. [7]" Only be strong and very courageous; be careful to do according to all the law which Moses My servant commanded you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, so that you may have success wherever you go. [8] " This book of the law shall not depart from your mouth http://www.cheapairmaxshoesireland.com/ , but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it; for then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have success. [9] " Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous! Do not tremble or be dismayed, for the Lord! your God is with you wherever you go."


Notice, in the above scripture; God told him to not let the book or words of the Law depart from his mouth. Why is that? Well God has put his will for us in the word of God, and we must know the word of God in order to understand what God's will is for our life.


2 Tim. 2:15
"Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth."


Have you ever wondered why you must handle the word of God with such care? It's not that you must quote the scriptures to people air max mens ireland , or be able to argue the scriptures at a moment notice. Their must be a reason why God puts so much infuness on the word of God?


Psalm 119:76
"O may your lovingkindness comfort me, According to Your word to your servant."


This scripture shows a key for the reason that we must study the word of God and keep it before us daily. The world of God is our guide to what God wants in our life. Remember, in 1 Joshua 1:8 reads "This book of the law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it; for then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have success." Now, for when you will make your way prosperous. There is defiantly a connection between what we speak and the word of God. We can see this even more clearly in some New Testament teachings.


Mark 11:24
"Therefore I say to you air max womens ireland , all things for which you pray and ask, believe that you have received them, and they will be granted you."


Here is another key to understanding prayer, Jesus says what ever we ask for in prayer, believe that we have received them. Jesus is giving us the definition of faith.


Hebrews 11:1-2
"Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. [2] For by it the men of old gained approval."


In its basic form, pray must be firm and rooted in faith. So one may ask air max shoes ireland , Brother Daryl, if it must be firm and rooted in faith, why are you telling me it must be based on the word of God. Here is why. It must be firm, in order, to believe what you ask for. If you really don't believe that you will receive, then you will not hold fast to your prayer.


James 1:6-8
"But he must ask in faith without any doubting, for the one who doubts is like the surf of the sea air max online ireland , driven and tossed by the wind. [7] For that man ought not to expect that he will receive anything from the Lord, [8] being a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways."


And how can it be rooted in faith with out the word of God?
