00:06:09.540 |
Alright, we're going to get our time of prayer 00:06:18.560 |
We are going to be spending a lot of time tonight on 00:06:21.560 |
Ephesians 6 and I am going to ask, can you guys just 00:06:25.560 |
stand and as we just read a couple of verses together 00:06:31.580 |
This is not going to be up here so if you have your 00:06:34.080 |
Bible with you please turn to Ephesians 6, 10 and I'm 00:06:38.580 |
going to read for us three verses and then we're going 00:06:51.500 |
It reads, "Finally be strong in the Lord and in the 00:06:58.900 |
Put on the full armor of God so that you will be able 00:07:03.400 |
to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. 00:07:09.340 |
For the struggle is not against flesh and blood, 00:07:14.740 |
but against the rulers, against the powers, against 00:07:17.240 |
the world forces of this darkness, against the 00:07:21.240 |
spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly 00:07:33.340 |
We are gathered tonight for a very important spiritual 00:07:41.740 |
exercise and we are here wanting to draw near to you 00:07:51.240 |
and to have you honored and to commune with you and to 00:08:02.040 |
Lord, it is our confession that we are weak and this 00:08:10.040 |
exercise of prayer is not something that is easy or 00:08:15.540 |
natural, but it is something that we want to do. 00:08:23.440 |
Lord, if you are not leading this time, all the stuff 00:08:27.940 |
that we are doing is throwing out superstitious 00:08:34.840 |
So first, Lord, as we sing, would you soften our 00:08:38.840 |
hearts, cause us to be grateful worshippers, cause 00:08:46.540 |
us to be humbled as we draw near to the presence of a 00:08:50.840 |
holy, holy, holy God, and cause us to long to pray in 00:08:58.940 |
the presence of your holy, holy, holy, holy, holy 01:08:00.040 |
What are the areas where your spirit is willing 01:08:49.040 |
and I will pray, and then we'll finish like that. 01:08:54.040 |
and sisters in Christ with whom you can pray. 01:25:28.640 |
- Okay, for those of you who are finished praying, 01:25:49.640 |
please stand with us as we sing this last song. 01:29:46.640 |
Father, thank you just for providing for us tonight 01:30:04.640 |
And perhaps a lot of that is we're not desperate enough. 01:30:15.640 |
And we leave the exercise of prayer just in theory. 01:30:22.640 |
But Lord, all of us, we do desire to know how to pray. 01:30:30.640 |
And really to beseech you, the Lord of our harvest, 01:30:36.640 |
And we wanna know how to pray according to your will 01:31:10.640 |
we ask that you would really bear fruit in our lives, 01:31:50.640 |
where you are honored through the preaching of your word
