Teach Us To Pray
Speaker: Charlie Cleverly
Series: Prayer - How To Do It
Scripture: Matthew 6:9-13
Jesus is in the business of clearing out stuff, and calling the people to the heart of the matter, which is that “my house shall be called a house of prayer.”
3 Ways to get Started on Prayer
1. Let us contemplate the beauty of Jesus.
The beauty of his character,
The beauty of his courage.
His wisdom in responding to questions and
His ultimate love
His love for individuals who are broken,
His love on the cross,
His greatest miracle, resurrection of Jesus from the dead.
2. Let's contemplate the beauty of his church at prayer.
It would be an open heaven where healing comes,
where you walk into an atmosphere that is
thick with God's glory and the poor and the lame come
3. Let's think about the potential for our own temple, our own house.
Your body is a temple for the Holy Spirit.
Prayer is something to be caught, not just taught.
Is my house a house of prayer?
Am I a person of contemplative prayer and intercessory prayer?
Have I caught hold of the spirit of prayer?
