THE POWER

Of Prayer

 

Sincere prayer draws you closer to God. Regardless of how painful your “low places” may be, God still hears your prayers. God’s grace is your strength and His love for you is unconditional. Wait on the Lord! He has an appointed time to answer your prayers.

Daily Suggested Scripture

“PRIORITIZING WORSHIP”

“But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.” John 4:23

 

GIVING

Online

 

 If you give, you will receive. Your gift will return to you in full measure, pressed down shaken together to make room for more, and running over. Whatever measure you use in giving -- large or small, it will be used to measure what is given back to you. 
(Luke 6:38, NLT).

Text - Mark 12:28-33 {KJV}
Title - Getting To Know God Better
Focus verses: 29-30
 

28 And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the first commandment of all?

29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:

30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.

31 And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.

32 And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the truth: for there is one God; and there is none other but he:

33 And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbour as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.
