Prayer (109)
  1. The Lord has an answer to your tears, your trouble, your weariness, your enemies, your grief, your shame, your sin.
  2. “Praying the Bible” sounds odd to the ears of most believers today. That’s unfortunate.
  3. He shows up when we are at our worst to usher us back to his side, lead us to repentance, rescue us, and reclaim us as his own.
  4. Sometimes, we get prayer dementia. We can’t remember what we were going to pray for, we can’t put the words together, and, frustrated, there is nothing we can do but sigh and groan.
  5. We must also address the stigma surrounding addiction within so many churches.
  6. The Lord’s Prayer is liturgy and catechism, action and instruction, praxis and theology.
  7. Prayer is not just about asking for things. It's about receiving what has already been given to us in Christ.
  8. Praying the Word of God back to God carries didactic import. It teaches us.
  9. The Lord’s prayer is a prayer in perfect accord with the will of God, and Jesus gifts it to us to plagiarize at will.
  10. A father's struggle to pray for his child's healing is one of the most difficult experiences he can face.
  11. The answer to our messages is God's "yes," Jesus, who sends his preachers to proclaim that there's no place for us now other than in the grip of our God and Savior.
  12. When we pray to Jesus, we pray to the King's right hand. We know one who has the Father's ear, respect and trust. And the one who intercedes for us is still one of us, with nail-pierced hands.
