2014-03-23 - Why Pray?

Pastor David Sincock
March 23, 2014
Why Pray? - John 3:27

When Trouble Knocks at your Door

  • Prayer is the gracious opportunity to speak directly to God
  • We direct our communication to God the Father
  • God the Son, Jesus is our connector, priest, mediator
  • The Spirit helps us pray as inferior humans
  • We feel good when we pray
  • We feel guilty when we are negligent
  • Prayer does not happen naturally
  • Prayer is a learned response and discipline
Why pray?
  • Three things prompt us to pray:
    • we share our needs
    • we request our desires
    • we express our love and worship
  • For many of us, the most intense times of prayer that we have experienced have come because of trouble
