Basics Of Prayer | Episode 8 | Wisdom

Grace & Truth

February 21, 2024 • Duane Sheriff • 1 John 5:14–15, James 1:5–8, Acts 16:6–12

Prayer is a voluntary act that we choose to do. It involves opening our hearts to seek God's will, and when we do so, God draws closer to us, and His grace becomes available to us. Duane teaches that we should pray for God's will instead of our own. If we do not know God's will or His promises for our daily decisions, we should pray for His wisdom.

Basics Of Prayer | Episode 1 | Motives Matter

February 12, 2024 • Duane Sheriff • Matthew 6:5–15, Luke 11:1

Duane teaches the importance of understanding why we pray and why the motives behind our prayers are important. The teachings of Jesus instruct us to refrain from praying to be noticed by others like hypocrites do. Instead, we should focus on our intentions and align our prayers with the teachings of Jesus.

Basics Of Prayer | Episode 2 | Forgiveness

February 13, 2024 • Duane Sheriff • Matthew 6:5–15, Mark 11:22–25, Luke 11:1

Duane shares why to pray, how to pray, and what to pray to receive answers to our prayers. Prayer is a way to connect with God and see His kingdom manifest, but unforgiveness or offense hinders our prayers.

Basics Of Prayer | Episode 3 | Why Pray

February 14, 2024 • Duane Sheriff • Matthew 16:16–19, Matthew 6:5–15, Ephesians 4:30–32, Psalm 115:16–18, Matthew 18:18–20

Duane teaches that our prayers don't need to be long to be effective. The key is to mix faith with our prayers. God has granted us authority and keys to bind and loose things on this earth to fulfill His will. When we partner with God and pray for His will to be done, His power is released on earth.
