Sunday's sermon: Next Steps

Good afternoon,
 
On Sunday, November 7, the sermon title was "The Power of Prayer." I encourage you to consider now what are the "next steps" God will have us take in response to this message we heard.
 
1. Do you consider yourself a "theologian"? Why or why not?
2. Do you agree with Pastor James' five "convictions" that form his theology about prayer? Why or why not?
a. "The goal of prayer is the ear of God" (Charles H. Spurgeon)
b. Each of us has a greater potential for prayer.
c. Prayer involves spiritual warfare.
d. God answers prayer.
e. I must not get weary or tired of praying.
3. What, if anything, has "held up" or "opposed" your getting an answer to prayer? What did you learn from these times?
4.  In what ways will you need to change your attitude about prayer?
5. What questions/thoughts/convictions were raised in your mind after hearing this sermon? How is God speaking to you now?

"Let truth, the light of my heart, speak to me, and not my own darkness!"
Augustine, Confessons, Book XII, Chapter 11

"Teach me, O Lord, the way of your statutes, and I will observe it to the end. Give me understanding, that I may keep your law and observe it with my whole heart."
Psalm 119:33-34


Pastor Kenneth Q. James
