Burk Parsons: Tapping into Our Source of Life through Prayer

In our regeneration and conversion, we receive new hearts and new affections for the things of God. Yet the world, the flesh, and the devil try to draw our hearts away from our love for the Lord and His way. Countering this requires us to continually tap into our source of life, coming to the Father through the Son in the power of the Spirit. In this message, Dr. Burk Parsons stresses the importance of prayer in our spiritual pilgrimage, looking at the necessity of both individual and corporate prayer for communing with our Lord and sustaining the Christian life.

Living life as taught in the Gospel Life of Jesus is the prayer everyday all day long. The prayer as a child. If I should die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take. God’s Will, not mine, for a loved one, for myself in health. Never give up - do my very best. Prayin’ in Union Through Jesus, in the Spirit as I live snd breathe each day. While I cook, wash clothes etc. I believe, as a child, if I ask it, He will do it. I couldn’t be here still had he not and if He didn’t, He is teaching me. In Jesus name I was taught. I didn’t know until now with you, it means much more, much more knowing the Character of God guides the prayer. I have to write it down as here, is my prayer. For God knows my heart. In the car, in a parking lot, the grocery store. Coming under the trials. Broken, suffering any time - He heard, He answers unfailing. Now he answers all my misgivings because Praying is included conference. He meets my needs your expository. Because He knows everything about me, that, is what I depend on. None else, none other. Running to Him always, remaining humble. One day at a time Sweet Jesus, the hymn I sing to Him. Yes the power of God, not the prayer. Amen. ♥️✝️♥️

Early in my walk I I I really struggled with prayer. About 30 years ago I was at a conference and one of the speakers said she wrote her prayers. I was amazed that one could do this. I started this practice and my prayer life dramatically improved. Not an absolute but a suggestion

What a blessing to hear such clear helpful teaching on prayer. I am blessed and will listen again .

[@teganwillow466]

I'm my times of deep mental anguish over the life-threatening sickness of a loved one - when I've been too anxious to think of what to pray - I've recited the Nicene Creed over and over. It orders my thoughts and reaffirms my faith. I'm Anglican, and I also love to pray the Collects and prayers of the Church when I'm really suffering and struggling to pray - esp. the Collect for Purity.

[@geraldinegribble8556]

According to his will...that's how I pray.

[@Nightray407]

Great word! Prayer is both a means to an end and an end in itself. Communion with God.

'He is a God who is abounding in Grace and Love'' and yet he chooses to pass over some(many) according to 'limited atonement'. Something is wrong with this presentation of the Gospel and the character of God.

[@RabbiMurray]

God knows the past present and future who will choose Him and who will not. If you take time out of it it's a simple concept . Like the shower and seed some hear some don't. And the soil plays a part
