The unlimited nature of God should be reflected by bold prayers.
Praying big starts with believing that nothing is impossible for God AND then praying like we really believe that. God desires to use us to accomplish huge things for the kingdom of God. This is an option for every Christian. It is the difference of being a prayer warrior or a prayer wimp.
Join us this Sunday at 10:45am at Lakeview Community Church for the next message in Pastor Paul Kozar’s new sermon series about praying called “They Teach us to Pray.”
Our reading this week will come from Jeremiah 32:16-25
16 “After I had given the deed of purchase to Baruch son of Neriah, I prayed to the LORD :
17 “Ah, Sovereign LORD, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you. 18 You show love to thousands but bring the punishment for the fathers’ sins into the laps of their children after them. O great and powerful God, whose name is the LORD Almighty, 19 great are your purposes and mighty are your deeds. Your eyes are open to all the ways of men; you reward everyone according to his conduct and as his deeds deserve. 20 You performed miraculous signs and wonders in Egypt and have continued them to this day, both in Israel and among all mankind, and have gained the renown that is still yours. 21 You brought your people Israel out of Egypt with signs and wonders, by a mighty hand and an outstretched arm and with great terror. 22 You gave them this land you had sworn to give their forefathers, a land flowing with milk and honey. 23 They came in and took possession of it, but they did not obey you or follow your law; they did not do what you commanded them to do. So you brought all this disaster upon them.
24 “See how the siege ramps are built up to take the city. Because of the sword, famine and plague, the city will be handed over to the Babylonians who are attacking it. What you said has happened, as you now see. 25 And though the city will be handed over to the Babylonians, you, O Sovereign LORD, say to me, ‘Buy the field with silver and have the transaction witnessed.’ “
