Morning: Isaiah 45:22; Ephesians 2:13–14; 1 Timothy 2:5; Hebrews 2:14; Hebrews 7:25; Hebrews 9:12; Hebrews 9:15; 1 John 2:1 For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, he himself likewise partook of the same things. “Turn to me and be saved, all the ends of the earth! For I am God, and there is no other.” We have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.—But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. For he himself is our peace.—He entered once for all into the holy places, not by means of the blood of goats and calves but by means of his own blood, thus securing an eternal redemption…. Therefore he is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, since a death has occurred that redeems them from the transgressions committed under the first covenant.—Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.

When James tells us to pray for one another in James 5, one of the results, according to James, is the forgiveness of the person you're praying for. James says, -If he has sinned, he'll be forgiven.- But how could that be-- Isn't forgiveness of sins based on the interactions between the sinner and God-- Why would you need someone else to pray for you in order to be forgiven of your sins--

1- Should we ever rebuke Satan or address him directly---2- How do we avoid pride when God is especially responsive in answering our prayers---3- How do we avoid the opposite error of assuming God is punishing us when he doesn't answer our prayers---4- Why does the Holman translation of James 5-16 say -the urgent prayer of the righteous man--- Where are they getting that word -urgent----5- What if a righteous person is praying for you, but you're unrighteous. Which way will it go--

Have you ever wasted a prayer-- You might wonder if it's even possible to waste a prayer, but think about it-anything that has value can be squandered, right-- Anything valuable can be used in ways that don't take advantage of that value.-- And if God really does answer prayer then prayer is of immeasurable value. And so it's worth asking yourself, -Am I squandering my prayers---

Chris Pumilia Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results.

Have you ever wondered what the point of intercession is-- Why does God want you to pray for someone else-- God knows what that person needs better than you do-why doesn't God just deal with that person directly-- If that person is praying for his own needs, is God more likely to answer his prayer if you are also asking for it-- And if so, why--

Last time we talked about what James calls the prayer of faith, or literally, the vow of faith. And we explored the idea that in some special instances, after a time of intensive prayer, God will grant you certainty that if you ask for a certain thing it will be granted. --But what about all the other times-times when you pray and you have no idea if the thing you're asking for is even God's will-- Or times when the thing you're asking for seems so unlikely, that you would actually be shocked if God answered that prayer. Does God answer those kinds of prayers--

Morning: Matthew 6:19–21; 2 Corinthians 4:16–18; 2 Corinthians 5:7; Colossians 3:2; 1 Peter 1:4; 1 John 2:15 Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.— “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” For we walk by faith, not by sight.—So we do not lose heart. Though our outer nature is wasting away, our inner nature is being renewed day by day. For this slight momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.—An inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you. Matthew 6:19–21 (Listen) Lay Up Treasures in Heaven 19 “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust1 destroy and where thieves break in and steal, 20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. Footnotes [1] 6:19 Or worm; also verse 20 (ESV) 2 Corinthians 4:16–18 (Listen) 16 So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self1 is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. 17 For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, 18 as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal. Footnotes [1] 4:16 Greek man (ESV) 2 Corinthians 5:7 (Listen) 7 for we walk by faith, not by sight. (ESV) Colossians 3:2 (Listen) 2 Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. (ESV) 1 Peter 1:4 (Listen) 4 to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you, (ESV) 1 John 2:15 (Listen) Do Not Love the World 15 Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. (ESV) Evening: Genesis 49:15; Leviticus 10:3; 1 Samuel 3:18; Job 2:10; Psalm 55:22; Isaiah 53:4; Matthew 11:28–30; 1 Corinthians 10:11; James 5:10 “He bowed his shoulder to bear.” As an example of suffering and patience, brothers, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.—Now these things happened to them as an example, but they were written down for our instruction, on whom the end of the ages has come. “Shall we receive good from God, and shall we not receive evil?” In all this Job did not sin with his lips.—And Aaron held his peace.—“It is the Lord. Let him do what seems good to him.” Cast your burden on the Lord, and he will sustain you.—Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows. “Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” Genesis 49:15 (Listen) 15   He saw that a resting place was good,    and that the land was pleasant,  so he bowed his shoulder to bear,    and became a servant at forced labor. (ESV) Leviticus 10:3 (Listen) 3 Then Moses said to Aaron, “This is what the LORD has said: ‘Among those who are near me I will be sanctified, and before all the people I will be glorified.'” And Aaron held his peace. (ESV) 1 Samuel 3:18 (Listen) 18 So Samuel told him everything and hid nothing from him. And he said, “It is the LORD. Let him do what seems good to him.” (ESV) Job 2:10 (Listen) 10 But he said to her, “You speak as one of the foolish women would speak. Shall we receive good from God, and shall we not receive evil?”1 In all this Job did not sin with his lips. Footnotes [1] 2:10 Or disaster; also verse 11 (ESV) Psalm 55:22 (Listen) 22   Cast your burden on the LORD,    and he will sustain you;  he will never permit    the righteous to be moved. (ESV) Isaiah 53:4 (Listen) 4   Surely he has borne our griefs    and carried our sorrows;  yet we esteemed him stricken,    smitten by God, and afflicted. (ESV) Matthew 11:28–30 (Listen) 28 Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” (ESV) 1 Corinthians 10:11 (Listen) 11 Now these things happened to them as an example, but they were written down for our instruction, on whom the end of the ages has come. (ESV) James 5:10 (Listen) 10 As an example of suffering and patience, brothers, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord. (ESV)

In James 5-15 we are promised that what James calls, -the prayer of faith- or -the vow of faith- will make the weary person well. What is the vow of faith--

In this episode, published on March 1, 2023, Pastor Ethan Callison and Susie Harris journey through James 5. Link to reading plan: https://fcclife.org/podcast-reading-plan. Jesus Everywhere Conference: https://www.form.church/bHYLtsFc

Does God answer prayer - yes or no-- Okay, now let me ask you that exact same question in another way- pick a random person sitting somewhere in this room - do you believe that that person would be better off if you prayed for them-- Would their life actually be better in real-world ways, with better outcomes, if you prayed for them, than if you didn't pray for them-- If you said yes to the first question but you are waffling on the second question, then your answer to the first question wasn't a real yes.

The Rev’d Don Shepson, Campus Missioner

When James says the prayer of faith will heal the sick person, is he talking about the sick person's faith, or the faith of the one praying----2- When John tells us not to pray for those who have committed the sin leading to death, what is that referring to-- What is the sin leading to death, and how do you know if someone has committed it----3- If pray is that which comes from the heart and not the words themselves, then do the words really even matter----4- Since these instructions are given to the elders, why are you assuming they apply to everybody--

Some of the least popular episodes of this podcast are the ones that have something about prayer in the title. I'm not sure why, but the number of Christians who are interested in learning about prayer seems to be smaller than those interested in other biblical topics.--That's strage when you consider how much better your life could be if God answered more of your prayers. Not only would that draw you nearer to God and enable you to love him more, but there would also be more of his grace in your life.--And if that doesn't motivate you, have you ever thought about this-what about your responsibility to others-- If you became the type of person whose prayers God was prone to answer, then when friends and family came to you with serious needs and you prayed, they would be more likely to get more grace from God because of you.--So what does it take to be that person whose prayers have special effectiveness with God--

Message from Terry Williams on February 26, 2023

You give a lot of thought to important decisions in your life-who to marry, what job to take, where to live. Even relatively smaller decisions, like which car to buy or where to go on vacation or, for that matter, what restraint to go to. We give careful thought to a lot of things, but how much though do we put into what we should pray for-- Has it ever occurred to you how important that decision is--

Have you ever wondered why God wants us to pray-- Isn't it a little arrogant for a finite, sinful human being to presume to ask God to behave a certain way-- If we really trust God, wouldn't we just say, -God, you just decide whatever is best and do that. I trust whatever you decide--- Why does God want us to ask him to do specific things instead of just trusting him with the decision of what to do--

We've been learning from James 5 the components of successful prayer. What makes God more eager to answer your prayers-- We looked at faith, reverence, righteousness, and praying with the right motive. Today we find one more ingredient that will move God to answer more of your prayers- earnestness.

Of all the things people pray for, there's only one prayer that God hears. Just one. Of all the motives we have for prayer, only one is valid. Any other motive, and God won't listen to the prayer.--But if we discover that motive, it opens up a universe of things we can pray for that God is more than eager to grant us with staggering generosity. And every time we pray anything with that motive, it draws us as little nearer to God. Today James will teach us what that motive is.

Your life would be a lot better if more of your prayers were answered. And Scripture tells us how to make that happen. One way is through greater faith. Today we discover two more keys to answered prayer.

In the Sermon on the Mount Jesus said, -Ask and it will be given to you.- That's quite the promise. What's the catch-- We know there has to be a catch because God doesn't give us everything we ask for. So what is the catch, and why does God even have catches-- Or does he--

Have you ever noticed how much force vows carry-- So often we'll hear a sermon or something and say, -Yeah, I'm going to do that from now on.- But if someone pressed you to make a formal commitment, you might hesitate. You find out how serious you really are about something when you're faced with a vow.-At the end of today's episode, I'll suggest a vow you can take regarding your role in the church. So listen carefully, because no vow should ever be taken lightly.
