I just asked God somethibg, while crying. And I asked Him to give me a clue if He was listening to my preyers, then I suddenly saw this video. God is so wonderful

Prayer is not just about for your needs to be reached, but for your relationship with the one true God prosper. Prayer is not just to witness the power of healing, of provision, of miracles, but for you to witness and above all experience the One where that power comes from. And prayer is not just about the words coming out of your mouth, its about the words you are receiving as you listen to Him that will change your entire life.

may we pray without ceasing Lord help us to do so for the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak, bless us Lord and may we in turn be your blessings on this earth

Ameen Ameen Ameen praise God hallelujah hallelujah praise him ✊✊✊🙏🙏🙌🙌🙏🙏👏👏😇😇😔😔 keep prayers 🤗✊✊✊✊✊✊✊🙌🙏🙏

In Revelation there are 2 kinds of prayer highlighted. The first kind of prayer is thanksgiving, praise, and worship like in chapters 4, 5, 7, 11, and 19. The other one is in chapter 5:10, which is a request to avenge the blood of the saints. The trumpets and the bowls release plagues upon the dragon's kingdom which is depicted as a woman in ch 17 and 18. In ch 17 the woman is drunk with the blood of the Saints. In ch 18 a plea is made to come out from her that you receive not of her plagues. God overthrows the kingdom of Satan. In Luke 18 Jesus says Shall not God Avenge his own elect though they cry out day and night? I tell you , God will avenge them speedily!

I needed to hear this 🙌🏾

I paused to listen, even though I tend to disagree with "Pastor John" in his theology, generally. But prayer is tremendously important to me. So I listened. And I benefited. New insights. There is much, much more involved in prayer. But this insight from the Book of Revelation is very helpful. Thank you.

How would that be possible that we could build up a prayer bank and that God would pour it out when He thinks it's full? One prayer of His child is as valuable to Him as a thousand prayers.

I will never understand why it always seems frowned upon to pray for ones own issues or heartaches always kingdom come ..yes I agree Jesus said thy will be done on earth but he also said the parable of the persistant widow crying out day and night for a person's personal problem nothing wrong with crying out to God about something that's troubling you personally if it's genuine and not material based pastor John I love your show but here you stated crying out for a loved one or the church but not for something personal in someone's heart or life something that weighs heavy on their soul and I beleive God hears and cares about those prayers also he made us individual beings whos instinct is to feel our own pain first and others next nothing wrong with being honest about that at all we are all human and desire peace within as much as we want it for our neighbor I would like to hear more things regarding personal prayed instead of kissing up to God by constantly acting as if we don't care for anything other than HIS will that's a mask Christians wear to make themself appear as putting God first and to be honest God sees right through that he knows we cry to him in private about our job relationships legal matters mortgage ect ect and I don't think there is anytjing to be ashamed of with praying for those things he knows our nature and the stress we all carry daily as the Bible cast your cares upon him for he cares for you Jesus also said come unto me all you who are heavy laden and I will give you rest for my burden is light and my yoke is easy ..if anyone else heard this and was slightly discouraged at the idea that we should only pray for God's kingdom to come or our church or loved one John was generalizing I'm sure he would agree God hears all prayers and he cares about what troubles us or weighs on our soul and when we cry in our bed to him he loves you brother and sisters keep pouring out to him

Surely God's sovereign will is done regardless of our prayers? God, by definition, is in need of nothing or no one. If he were in need then he'd cease to be God. And yet we're exhorted all through scripture to pray. I've yet to hear a satisfactory explanation from any teacher/pastor/theologian that would explain this apparent paradox in a way that is clear, concise and biblical. Yet I still believe there is an answer to this. I do hear a great deal of rhetoric from fellow believers in an attempt to explain prayer. I'd much rather they were honest about their ignorance rather than positing a wrong answer. To me this is frequently bordering on pride.

How to pray?

D

interesting

Wondering where and how can he refer it to a "bowl" from the scriptures? :)

So what is the purpose of scripture like “ask, and it shall be given you, seek, you shall find, knock, and it shall be opened?” God is going to do His will and His purpose must be served no matter what. What is the point of me praying at all for my needs or desires? It sounds like all I should pray is a modification of the Lord’s Prayer at all times.
