The Importance and Occurrence of Prayer
July 23, 2023 • Pastor Bob Searles • Proverbs 15
In the Old Testament, the view of prayer stems from a high conception of deity. Good prayer implies that God thinks, feels, and wills, yet is also omniscient, omnipotent, omnipresent, holy, and gracious. In the New Testament, Jesus declared that "...men ought always to pray and not faint." There is much to learn in these regards!
