Sharing a Powerful Message about Prayer from Charles Stanley
One of the most frequent questions I’m asked might well be how to pray, and there just isn’t any better answer to that question than the one Dr. Charles Stanley provided in his sermon this past weekend, A Life-Changing Prayer. So I strongly encourage everyone to read his Sermon Outline, which is based on Colossians 1:9-14. And it would be a very good idea to print that out and keep it for future reference and you can watch the message or listen to it at the appropriate link provided above.
As Dr. Stanley said, this prayer really does cover everyone in every situation and there’s nothing more powerful than praying the manifestation of God’s Word into someone’s life and circumstances, especially when we fully understand and recognize the amazing, yet simple declaration found in Psalm 103:20! So I for one fully intend to take this message to heart and to put it into practice in my prayers for myself and those I love, and then I fully expect to be amazed by the great and mighty things I know God will do! And there’s NO DOUBT that when we pray this way, we will be blessed and encouraged as we see the hand of God moving mightily in our circumstances and in the restoration of our marriages and families…SO GET READY!!!
Colossians 1:9-14 – For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you and asking God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding. And we pray this in order that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and may please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and joyfully giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light. For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
