A Love Affair with God – Part 1
By :
Kurt Steele
Prayer is simply intimacy and communion with God. AW Tozer writes, “When I am praying the most eloquently, I am getting the least accomplished in my prayer life. But when I stop getting eloquent and give God less theology and shut up and just gaze upward and wait for God to speak to my heart He speaks with such power that I have to grab a pencil and a notebook and take notes on what God is saying to my heart."
A Love Affair with God – Part 2
By :
Kurt Steele
We saw in our last article this simple statement come to life: Prayer is simple communion and intimacy with God. There is no greater pursuit for His glory than to pray, it is the connection of the heart of man with the heart of God. Quite simply, it is a heavenly love affair. Now we want to venture forward and really dive into the pattern for your love affair with God. Turn in your bible to the familiar, yet I believe, slightly inaccurate title for this passage, “The Lord’s Prayer.” Really?
A Love Affair with God – Part 3
By :
Kurt Steele
We start off today with a brief review. We looked at Our Father who is personally and powerfully put us in relationship with Himself by Jesus Christ’s finished work at Calvary. This is an incomprehensible topic. In fact Jesus prayer in John 17:26 amazes me...
A Love Affair with God – Part 4
By :
Kurt Steele
The Lord taught us in the first line of the Lord’s Pattern of Prayer to lift up His name, to acknowledge and praise His name and who is high and lifted up, distinct from any other name. Our Father is in a class of His own. Our uncreated God is beyond comprehension and above all. The fullness of His glory fills the earth. Now, we can see Him as the sovereign controller and we can pray, “Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” This phrase of the Pattern of Prayer..
A Love Affair with God – Part 5
By :
Kurt Steele
We dive into the Lord’s Pattern of Prayer again. This pattern gets better and better as we go! BUT you must press into this for yourself. This cannot stay head knowledge. You must EXPERIENCE it through actually praying. STOP! Pray NOW! Pray through Part 1-4!
A Love Affair with God – Part 6
By :
Kurt Steele
Forgiveness is a key theme in Scripture. An understanding and revelation of grace is the key to walking and living in forgiveness. The Lord’s Pattern of Prayer now transitions to what I call the progression of forgiveness. The phrase is “Forgive us our debts as WE forgive our debtors”. Jesus is teaching that we must experience God the Father’s forgiveness and then release forgiveness on others...
A Love Affair with God – Part 7
By :
Kurt Steele
This is an article that outlines the next section of the Lord's Pattern to Prayer and cries out for spiritual deoverance and warfare...
A Love Affair with God – Part 8
By :
Kurt Steele
The three-fold conclusion of the Lord’s Pattern of Prayer brings the whole prayer together. “For Yours is the Kingdom and the Power and the Glory FOREVER AND EVER.” This is the divine return to God in worship. The three-fold proclamation about God is declared by the Son of God about our heavenly Father to culminate...

Conditions of Successful Prayer
By :
ReturningKing.com
The idea of God simply ignoring the pleas of his children is incomprehensible, yet people commonly feel as if somehow God is not listening. Or, at times, people think they have heard from God, as the man in this illustration, yet God’s answer wasn’t what they expected.
This study examines several biblical principles concerning prayer to assist believers in understanding the conditions upon which successful prayer is achieved, as well as a proper definition of what “successful” prayer is.
God answers prayer !
By :
Shaila D Touchton
God promised to answer prayers through Jesus Christ, those who seek God with all the heart, those who ask according to his will and return to him, those who ask in faith and wait upon him, those who fear the Lord and Keep his commandments, those who are humble, righteous, poor, in distress and needy. He can answer the prayer immediately or sometimes delayed.

Heartfelt Prayer Journal Days 1-28
By :
Rick O
As I grow in my relationship with the Lord, I find it helpful to keep a prayer journal. From time to time, it is an awesome encouragement to look back at where He has brought us and what He has brought us through. This is just days 1-28 of a 40 day prayer journal. The rest is coming, I just haven't typed it all yet. Thanks be to our gracious and forgiving Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ who accepts us back with welcoming, loving arms no matter how far or how fast we ran from Him. AMEN!!
Is Fasting God's Key to Victory?
By :
burning bear
Many believers think the one-time sacrifice of Christ on the Cross was insufficient. So they make themselves suffer to try to merit God's favor to gain answers to prayer thereby.
Only one regular fast was commanded by God and only under the Old Covenant. No apostle ever commands, or even recommends, fasting in the epistles, or rebukes anyone for failure to fast. Fasting is a bodily function like eating. Prayer power proceeds from the spirit, not an empty stomach.
Learning To Develop A Prayer Life
By :
Hannah Henderson
How should one pray? What should be said to God? Answers to these questions, as well as many other guidelines to developing an effective prayer life are found in the Bible. The study of prayer can become quite in-depth when considering the various types of prayer, the diversity of situations in which the Christian may find himself, and the specific requests of which the prayer itself is composed.

God denies to answer the prayers for those who Live in sin, Forsake God, Reject the call of God, who Are blood-shedders, who Are the enemies of saints, who Are proud, who Are hypocrites, who Are wavering, Are idolaters, who ask in wrong motives, who doesn’t live according to his commandments and law.
Pleading the Blood of Jesus!
By :
Shaila D Touchton
Pleading the blood simply means applying the blood to our life and circumstances just like the Israelites applied it to their door posts and were protected from the destroyer (Exodus 12).
Although we were not physically there when Jesus died, His shed blood bears witness to the fact that He died, rose again and defeated the powers of darkness (Colossians 2: 15). All witnesses need to speak. Remember the blood is living and speaks (Hebrews 12: 24). When we actively plead (speak out) the blood into the negative circumstances and attacks satan brings against us, we are bringing a powerful witness to speak on our behalf (1 John 5:8).

Quiet Moments with God
By :
Josprel
Believers in gentler eras understood the value of quiet moments with God. Long ago, an anonymous writer penned words apt to our times: "There is restlessness and fretfulness in these days, which stand like two granite walls against godliness. Contentment is almost necessary to godliness, and godliness is absolutely necessary to contentment. A very restless man will never be very godly, and a very godly man will never be a very restless man. 'Be still and know that I am God.'"
Right Praying Attitude
By :
Angel
Amen! Having a right prayer attitude in our Christian race can not be over-emphasized. Questions have come up in this area: does God really answer prayer. I have been faced with such a question in the times past, when it was really hard on me: I have prayed, fasted, prophesized, tongued but it seems God is not answering me and I answer: does God really answer prayer.

Why Do we need to pray?
By :
Shaila D Touchton
When you pray, you are communicating with the God. The Holy God sincerely wants to hear and answer your prayers. Prayer does indeed change things. The Lord our God must be pleased as He sees each of you labor for Him in Prayer. The practice of prayer is vitally important for spiritual growth. Prayer for families is the very key foundation that keeps a family together. The power of prayer is the power that comes to us when we realize that God can be our point of reference in the midst of all the confusions of our daily lives. Prayer heals physical and emotional hurts.
