Prayer Makes A Leader - Francis Chan | 陳恩藩 禱告成就一個領袖

With Permission from Crazy Love Ministries (crazylove.org/s...)
In the series of making a leader, Francis Chan is asked to speak on the topic of Prayer. Prayer is such a special part of a real leader. How can you be a Spiritual leader without praying? How can you lead your family or ministry without getting on your face before God? Prayer is supernatural. Prayer brings us to heart of God. Uploaded with permission.

Thanks for the encouragement in prayer!

[@FUNNYVIDEOS-mv1bh]

Pastor Chan, I can not say enough How I am so Blessed to have this connection with your messages through you tube. Listening and reading the word gives me so much confirmation. Some times I listen and I go to the word and realize how so many churches do not get it. I found a small Church that is so different then the church I have been going to for over 11 years. I have a passion for the homeless but I am on a fixed income. I so prayed for God to show how and were can I help people more. This church does so much for the homeless, I cried for joy that I am going to do what I feel that God called me for. Thank You Pastor for excepting the calling of ABBA cause you give a message that may make people feel that they do not want to leave their comfort zone. I am ready to do the work that he has chosen for me. Blessings to you and your loved ones. You are truly a man for God. Hope I can meet you one day. South Jersey here.

I felt the tears coming throughout much of this sermon. God is pouring into me more and more everyday and I thank Him for speaking through you and allowing us to grow more faithful amen!

Prayer. Everytime I hear that word, I realize how much I desperately need Christ to change my heart continuously.

[@Alqpwordjxbza21]

Wowwowwow praise our amazing God!!!!! How could anyone dislike this msg even after finishing hearing it?? These ppl seriously need God's work on their hearts. Pls do finish listening prayerfully with a truly open mind to God thru FC!

[@Dibdib35]

Thank you Jesus that we can come to You in honesty and truth. Thank You that You alone are worthy of all our worship and praise.

[@nathaniel2101]

I prayed more today after hearing this.

[@AlwaysLime]

Self reliance.... wow. Lord, we repent. I need you, I am desperate because relying on myself is not much to rely on at all! Even my strength is weakness compared to you Lord Almighty.

[@fpcoostburg9379]

Another great message from Francis Chan!

[@winfreychic]

You have no idea how perfect the timing is with this video. I've accepted the position of prayer coordinator at church and it's so far outside my comfort zone that it's unreal (I very much dislike praying out loud). I am humbled, scared out of my mind, yet so over the moon excited to see what God has planned.

[@rickbrendonherring3408]

Mary Winfrey God is the only True Comfort zone very blessed to read your honest answer..smh...I can relate but I promised myself about 3yrs ago that I would do whatever God placed on my heart.. I am sure we all need to remember that what is done in prayer (communion with God) ushers in God's hand to move on Earth..prayer is faith in action and more real than the air we breathe..God bless you sis..thanks for your comment..times are short so we all need to seek our God in prayer and ,out of the position of prayer,live our lives as worship to the soon coming King .Jesus. 2 Chronicles 20:17-18 King James Version (KJV) 17 Ye shall not need to fight in this battle: set yourselves, stand ye still, and see the salvation of the Lord with you, O Judah and Jerusalem: fear not, nor be dismayed; to morrow go out against them: for the Lord will be with you. 18 And Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground: and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell before the Lord, worshipping the Lord. King James Version (KJV) 2Chronicles7:14 is also so on point for our times

Praying for you!

[@kalimellington2013]

Your fear is (part of) your qualification. Think The Christ, at Gethsemane, "...if there be another way take this cup from me (mortal terror), never the less not MY will... YOUR will be done (obedience in faith). The farther we are from our comfort zone, the more we rely on God. The more we rely on (surrender to) God, the more amazing the work that is done. May God blow your mind with the success, shown by the fruits, of your new mission / ministry.

[@lukeahka8651]

It is great message. Amen!

[@jojobean5382]

I was going to report someone to my HR for saying something offensive to me but I feel like I should turn the other cheek. I feel like that's what God wants me to do and then to also pray for my enemy.

[@rickardnolan3019]

JoJo Bean I’ve made this kind of mistake and received revelation of how when you pray for God’s mercy, grace, forgiveness, and so on you always receive to give and as you give He is actually doing the work of creating a testimony of a saving relationship between you and Him for others that builds faith and it takes faith to get prayers answered and it all comes back to trusting God/LOVE through Jesus. He’ll take care of it and if you’re lucky your enemy will come to Jesus and love you.

[@korylooper3170]

@@rickardnolan3019 Amen. Pour hot coals on their head by loving them when they spitefully use you. The goodness of God leads people to repentance. The more love you show, people will see the Lord in you, and the goodness of God leads people to repentance!

[@rickardnolan3019]

Kory Looper Hallelujah, amen! Just a little patience and understanding where they are and what they need. The Lord actually showed me in a dream once how he was raining down fire from heaven but when it hit the atmosphere I got nervous about what was happening and stomped it out. We have the power to call on Him and the power to stop the blessing He sends.

[@LisaJohnson-vb8fo]

I was reading through the comments and really trying to hear those who criticize FC and his teaching. I dont know about his relationship with Rick Warren or some of the other people mentioned. I dont know about all the negative things brought up about him because I do not know him. They very well could be true, but I dont get to see him, know him, or have discussions about his heart. I DO know that I tend to be picky about who I listen to and try to be discerning. I have not seen enough evidence to prove that FC is anything but a person who sincerely loves Jesus. I get a lot out of what he says and my walk with Christ is challenged and changed. I was really reminded in this one about not only the power of prayer, but about WHO it is we pray to. I love what he said about being changed by God and not just accountable to those around us aka relying On God not just on others. The only concern I have with this video (other than the statement he made about if you don't pray at least an hour a day tell me so I can fire you. Sounds legalistic to me. My relationship with Jesus is MY relationship. No one gets to dictate how long I pray or dont.) is that someone watching this who doesnt hear answered prayer the way FC does will feel like God loves them less, or they are not praying hard enough or with enough belief. Truth is God answers prayer in a number of different ways and it isnt always the way we think He will or should, but it is always for His glory and not ours. I loved the way this message challenged me and will likely listen again.

[@joogjonesjj]

Wow, you are a mature Christian, and you are correct about everything you just said. I was always told, eat the meat, but spit the bones out.

[@jennaharmonn]

This is soooo good. Really hits home, and makes me want to be even more intentional about everything I am trying to communicate with someone about faith.

There is Only One Leader..and that is Jesus. Jesus said to "Seek Him and HIS Righteousness." Jesus did Not say..Seek a man or a church or Pharisee stuff in the bible. Jesus is an Individual Personal Savior..He is the Only One Who Knows what is Right for me..and you. He is Who we should be seeking and is our only True Leader.

[@Agapeh7]

Amen indeed

[@theloveofgod4586]

The word of the lord is always hard to listen to. Withhold not yourself form the lord. It's is your members that are cursed, hands, eyes, ears, mouth ect. Withhold them not from the lord then he will not withhold himself from you. Praise him with all your members that they be blessed and you may hear, speak and see the truth/word which is the light/jesus. For example you cannot see the truth because your eyes do not abide in the truth, you need to withhold your eyes from iniquity/darkness so that you can see the righteousness/light and you can walk in it. It is your members that are attached to your flesh/body that causes your soul to be cast in hell. The flesh is weak but the spirit is strong and ready. Love God with your mind, heart and soul. He will make all these precious parts new, deny not one of these members that your God give you. If you deny any one of these members you deny the true existence of yourself and God. Who is the image of God, how lucky are you that you are just that hate not one of the image of God. Love God and his son Jesus Christ who carried out his will in perfection. Love everyone as yourself. The enemy is but one the devil. And if you don't believe the devil is the true enemy then you have been rocked to sleep like a baby by the devil. Wake up sons and daughters of God.

It actually makes me a little angry to try to "convince" my family to pray for themselves. They say "you pray, God listens to you" Or my husband calls me when I'm in the middle of studying scripture just to talk about nonsense! I send them these kinds of videos and they still don't get the urgency!!! Just discovered you today. Love the devotion and that the attention is all to God. You got me kneeling in the middle of my kitchen praying with you. Wish your church was near me. Thank you for these videos

[@namp9809]

I understand what you are saying Monica. I was one of those children who would ask their mother, father grandmother and aunt to prayer because they were prayer warriors. Growing up, I didn't understand how could someone pray and fast for so many hours, on their knees in tears. I am older now and understand, without prayer I cannot do anything. I still dont have the commitment they do but im praying God helps me surrender completely. All you can do is pray for them and in God's time, He will open their heart towards Him and the mantle of your prayer can be passed on and carried down your generations to come.

[@delawareteacher1182]

[@michaelcobbledick6437]

To the haters and critics: When you throw a rock in a pack of dogs the one who yelps is the one that got hit. Those who are guilty of a sour embittered heart vomit up complaining, accusations, and putrid words. People who lack influence and hate their small lives, hate on imperfect people who God uses for massive influence to improve the lives of people across the globe. FC answers to God for any mistakes he makes. And likewise you answer to God for the bitter accusations you make against any imperfect vessel of God. Jesus said “Forgive them (incl: religious people who don’t know God) for they don’t know what they are doing.” Let your own negative words be a testimony against you if you chose not to ask God for forgiveness for speaking against someone who loves Jesus. I pray your heart would be healed. That you would know the peace of feeling clean and that you would know the joy of positively impacting others without the burden of a poisoned heart. Satan is the true enemy not a person. Rise up and take off the cloak of bitterness. Let Jesus wash you clean of sadness and self loathing. You can experience freedom! if you will...

[@JustChillin227]

The gospel by which we're saved. We're under Paul's ministry today. Therefore we're not under the law of the old testament. 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 (KJV)1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures. And that takes us back to John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that WHOSOEVER believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Ephesians 2:8-9 (KJV) 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. So it's only by GRACE that we are saved not by works. Jesus did all the work and gave us GRACE (unmerited favor) as long as we have FAITH (believe) in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ for SALVATION (trust in his blood). That's the gospel. Jesus said, Ye must be born again to enter into the kingdom.(accept Jesus as your LORD and SAVIOR)
