Don't Ring the Bell!
David Ireland
Luke 18:1-8
1.0 Prayer is God's Business (Luke 18:1-8) [P. 742]!
1.1 God delights in answering prayer!
A) God encourages us to pray (Lk. 18:1).
B) God anticipates our need to pray by divine wisdom and through divine love He promises to answer our prayers.
Jer. 33:3-''Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.''
C) There are LAWS concerning prayer. For example, one law of prayer says: You must ASK God.
Matt. 6:6-Jesus taught: ''But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.''
Psalm 65:2-David writes: ''O you who hear prayer, to you all men will come.''
D) 2nd Law: You must have a relationship with God.
Acts 9:11-God says of Paul: ''He is praying''
1.2 We're called to become kneeling warriors.
Eph. 6:11-''Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes.''
1 Tim. 6:20-''Timothy, guard what has been entrusted to your care.''
2 Tim. 2:3-''Endure hardship with us like a good soldier of Christ Jesus.''
Why do people quit praying? Unanswered prayers!
