PRESENCE PRAYER - PRAYER CHANGES US  Paul teaches us the lifechanging prayer of the transformation of our mind and heart. Philippians 4:6-7 which says ‘Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.'   The wonderful promise of this Prayer of Change is that God will guard and protect our hearts and minds through Jesus Christ in everything that is happening in our lives. That is what overcomes the anxiety of a busy mind and a fretful heart that burdens our souls, and that is what allows us to pray the prayer of faith with thanksgiving in any situation. The Greek word for anxious is merimna?? which means to be overly troubled by too many concerns and needs at the one time (or all the time), whether these concerns are our own or for others we care for. This Scripture is a gracious appeal from God's Spirit to our spirit – and our spirit is made up of our mind and our heart. But to get through to our spirit God has to get past our soul, and it is our souls that get overcrowded with too many soulish thoughts of the mind and feelings of the heart that fight for priority to get attention.  In Hebrews 4:12 The Bible speaks about the word (logos) of God's creative design and purpose and that word (logos) is said to be like a sword that is able to divide between the soul and the spirit. And we need that logos word so that we can understand what is happening in our soul and in our spirit, because the anxiety is in the soul but the prayer of faith is in the spirit.  Our communion of our spirit to God's indwelling Spirit opens the way for God to speak truth into our minds and renew our minds in our spirit. The truth that comes from the spiritual renewal of our mind informs our heart with a faith that believes and trusts in God and in his good will and purpose for us in our prayer for our needs.  What our mind receives is what our heart believes – that is a fridge hanging statement to keep us focussed on what God wants us to know and what he wants us to believe.  That Scripture also gives us an example of that sword word piercing between joints and marrow. The outside of a joint bone is like the soul and the marrow on the inside is like spirit - the real life-giving substance of the bone. Prayer is not just about trying to fix the outside problems that we see about us but about how God reorders us on the inside for us to see his will and for us to receive what he is faithfully putting in place for us.  Good marrow means strong bones – but even if a bone gets broken it will heal well if the marrow is good.  Our souls can become overwhelmed by the outer chaos and disorder that we see around us in this world, but our spirit joined to God's Spirit is strengthened by the truth and order and promise of the good things of God that he has in store for us. That Scripture ends by saying that that sword word is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart, so it helps us to know what is going on in our disturbed soul so that we can exercise faith in our spirit that can assure us that Jesus is dealing with these needs for us in a way that only he can, and in that way our souls can be at rest and rise above the anxiety.  He tells us to bring these things to him with thanksgiving – thanksgiving for what? Thanksgiving that Jesus will intercede with the Father on our behalf according to God's will for our lives. So that means he is reordering our prayer. God is at work to reorder our lives for the best outcome for our lives – his outcome – not what our stressed or demanding souls would force into action if we could have things our way and not his. That is the peace of being in agreement with God that surpasses all understanding.

Prayed at the HOUSE CHURCH MEETING, MACHANEH CATHEDRAL

Apostle explained that the desire of God is for us to draw closer to Him, not dwelling on our flaws, but embracing His charge to live fully for Him. (Jeremiah 23:18; 16)He reminded us that much of the chaos we see in the world has roots in spirituality. (Revelation 6:4–6)So, as believers, it is our divine destiny to function in the counsel of God, to know things beforehand, and to live in the reality of His Word. (Isaiah 6:8; Hebrews 11:3)Here are some key takeaways from the sermon: Refuse to be a pawn in life's battles. Begin to see through the lens of the Spirit and take charge of your reality. The Necessity of Prayer:• Prayer is how we command our realities.• ⁠We should actively refuse to be victims of the common realities around us by taking charge in prayer • We should learn to intercede for others, not just pray for ourselves as this sets us as partners with Christ and gives us a prophetic edge. The Importance of Praise:• We should cultivate an agenda-free worship life with God. By praising Him for who He is, not only for what we need.Faith is not passive, it is active, prayerful, and full of worship. When we live by faith, we cease to be victims of circumstances and begin to walk in the reality God destined for us.

Igniting Contagious Faith!Sermon Notes: https://links.kchanford.com/sunday

Pastor David teaches from Matthew 6:5-8 on the truth that prayer is presence, not performance.

Moving beyond just learning about Jesus to actually living like Him is the essential progression of our Christian journey. In this episode of The Drive, Pastors Spencer and Bob discuss what it truly means to be an imitator of Christ, as commanded in Ephesians 5:1-2.Imitating Christ requires a death—the death of our old nature and self-will, not physical death. Romans 12:1-2 calls us to present our bodies as a "living sacrifice". By destroying the "old man," our lives become a sweet-smelling aroma to God. The Bible describes God as holy, just, and loving, and as His children, we are commanded to imitate these characteristics.Pastor Spencer and Bob examine how Christians can partner with God to live a holy life. This partnership involves meditating on God's Word to renew your mind and replace destructive thoughts with things that are true, noble, and pure. Living a holy life is the most important thing a Christian can do. It becomes a powerful testimony for Jesus and an example for the world to see.Key Takeaways:Imitate God's Character: We are commanded to be imitators of God, developing His character traits of purity, holiness, justice, and love.A Living Sacrifice: We are called to be a living sacrifice, putting our own will and former sinful nature to death. This daily sacrifice is a "sweet-smelling aroma" to God.Holiness and Reverence: A casual approach to faith is a sign of lost reverence for God's holiness. Scripture shows us that no one can see God's face and live, underscoring His immense power and purity.Partnership with God: We partner with God in our sanctification by meditating on His Word, allowing it to renew our minds and shape our thoughts, words, actions, and character.The Power of Prayer: Prayer is a crucial part of our Christian walk and a "sweet-smelling aroma" to God.Catch the Full sermon here:https://-NWZVV4.subspla.sh/f52px5qRead the Full Blog and application steps here:https://christianfellowshiploslunas.org/blog/2025/08/18/a-walk-to-remember-living-out-our-transformation-in-christChristian Fellowship Church is a discipleship-focused community in Los Lunas, New Mexico.

Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! In today's episode, Heather guides us through day 215 of our journey through the Scriptures on this third day of August. Together, we reflect on the powerful words from Nahum chapters 1-3 and John chapter 5. The episode revisits the story of Nineveh, picking up a century after Jonah, and explores God's justice, mercy, and relentless love.

The episode closes with thoughtful prayers and a warm invitation to connect further at dailyradiobible.com. Join us as we come together with listeners around the world to encounter God's Word, be reminded of His love, and carry that love into our day. Absolutely! Here are 10 thoughtful discussion questions based on this episode of the Daily Radio Bible: The episode opens by saying that the Scriptures bear witness to Jesus rather than being life in themselves. What does this perspective mean to you, and how might it change the way you read the Bible? Nahum's prophecy against Nineveh comes 100 to 150 years after Jonah's. How does the contrasting message between these two prophets reflect God's justice and mercy? In what ways did Nahum emphasize both God's power and his goodness? How do you see these two aspects of God in your own life? The description of Nineveh's fall is vivid and devastating. Why do you think the Bible includes such detailed imagery when depicting the consequences of turning away from God? Jesus' statement in John 5:39, "You study the Scriptures diligently... yet the Scriptures point to me," is highlighted in the episode. What are the risks of focusing on religious rules without embracing the person of Jesus? The host mentions that some people missed God's love because they were consumed with control, rules, and judgment. What are some modern-day examples of missing God's love in similar ways? How does Jesus' healing at the pool of Bethesda challenge the religious leaders' views on the Sabbath? What message do you think Jesus was trying to convey through this act? The prayers at the end of the episode emphasize being instruments of peace, forgiveness, and love. How can these prayers inspire the way you interact with others today? The episode encourages listeners to recognize God's love already present in their hearts. What practices or habits can help you become more aware of God's love in your everyday life? Reflecting on today's readings and the discussion, how can you move from simply knowing about God to truly experiencing and living in God's love? Feel free to use these for group discussion or personal reflection! Absolutely! Here's a comprehensive sequence of topics covered in this episode of the Daily Radio Bible podcast, with sub-topics nested under each main heading for clarity: 1.

Bible StudyDon't just take our word for it . . . take His! We would encourage you to spend time examining the following Scriptures that shaped this sermon: Luke 11:5-13; Matthew 6:5-13; Matthew 18:10-20; Isaiah 55:8: Romans 12:1Sermon OutlineJesus first taught the disciples how to pray and then illustrated the need for persistence in prayer. In this parable, Jesus indicates that God can be trusted to respond to our prayers. The key point and question we must answer is: Do we believe that God can be trusted with our prayers? The man in the parable persisted (Greek word meaning shameless persistence) in asking his neighbor for bread for his visitor. Because of his persistence, his neighbor gave him the bread. Likewise, Jesus illustrates that God will respond to our persistent ongoing prayers.Three questions to consider:Why pray?Jesus tells us to prayThere is power in prayerPrayer fosters a deeper connection with GodWhy is persistence in prayer important?Our persistence doesn't change God; it changes us and aligns our hearts with God's heartPrayer is continual: ask, seek, knockPrayer exercises our faith muscleHow does God respond?Earthly fathers will not purposely give their sons bad giftsHeavenly Father gives His best giftsHeavenly Father does not hold out on youKey pointIn order to pray persistently and not give up we must know the character of God; that He is good, faithful and trustworthy.Key concernGod does not always answer the prayers in the way that we would like, but He always has a “higher yes” ordered and governed by His Sovereignty and ability to see the big picture of our lives.Sermon QuestionsDo you think that God always responds to your prayers out of His character of goodness, faithfulness? Why or why not?Is your prayer life persistent and full of trust believing God cares and hears you? Why or why not?Do you pray until you get a breakthrough even if it isn't the answer you were hoping for?How have you seen prayer transform you?What do you need to do to grow in your trust that God is for you and not against you?

In week 5 of the Talking Jesus series, Pastor Torry Sheppard brings a timely and tender word for those who've been faithfully sharing their faith—but are still waiting to see results. This message encourages believers to persevere when the work of evangelism feels slow, discouraging, or seemingly unfruitful—especially when it involves someone they love. Pastor Torry opens by acknowledging a common, heartfelt question: What do I do when I've done everything I know to do? Whether it's a child, a spouse, or a close friend, long-game evangelism often means walking with people for years without visible progress. And that can be exhausting. This message is a reminder that although the journey is slow, it's sacred—and that God is still working. A Hiking Story with a Spiritual Twist To illustrate this, Pastor Torry tells a humorous and revealing story from a college trip to Utah, where he and a group of friends mistakenly knocked over the very rock stacks—called cairns—meant to guide their hike through the desert. After getting lost, they realized they had been dismantling the very markers that were supposed to help them get to their destination and return home. The story sets up the central theme: in the long, dry stretches of spiritual influence, we need markers of faith to keep us grounded and encouraged. Without them, it's easy to lose our way. Evangelism is rarely instant. It's a journey—and one that often requires more endurance than enthusiasm. Part 1: Stacking Stones – Keeping Your Faith Alive Drawing from Joshua 4, Pastor Torry reflects on Israel's entrance into the Promised Land. After God parted the Jordan River, Joshua instructed the people to gather twelve stones as a memorial. These stones weren't just for celebration—they were for remembrance. They told future generations: God was here. He moved. He delivered. What's striking is that Joshua also set up a private altar in the riverbed—stones no one else would see once the water returned. Pastor Torry suggests these hidden stones were personal—a reminder for Joshua himself. Because even the strongest leaders are prone to forget God's faithfulness. Like Joshua, we need to “stack stones” along our spiritual journey—moments of answered prayer, miracles, or breakthroughs that we can return to when doubt creeps in. Sometimes the best way to encourage our soul is to remember what God has already done. Part 2: Spiritual Influence Over the Long Haul With our personal faith fortified, Pastor Torry shifts focus to how we can maintain spiritual influence when nothing seems to be changing. He outlines three key commitments that keep us in the game: 1. Prayer Prayer isn't passive—it's powerful. It's not just something we do while we wait; it's part of the work itself. Citing James 5, Pastor Torry reminds us that the prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective. He introduces five scriptural ways to pray for those far from God: Ask the Father to draw them (John 6:44) Bind the spirit that blinds them (2 Corinthians 4:4) Pray they experience a relationship, not just religion (Romans 8:15) Ask God to send people into their lives (Matthew 9:38) Pray for wisdom and revelation (Ephesians 1:17) These intercessory prayers become spiritual warfare—asking God to soften hearts, remove barriers, and awaken a personal hunger for Him. 2. Patience Evangelism rarely moves at the pace we want. Pastor Torry challenges our “right now” expectations by reminding us that while God can move instantly, He often works over time. Just because something isn't visible doesn't mean it isn't happening. Our patience mirrors God's own—He was patient with us, and He calls us to be patient with others. Patience doesn't mean approval. It simply means we haven't given up hope. It gives us the grace to stay present even when change is slow. 3. Persistence Patience keeps us grounded. Persistence keeps us moving. Pastor Torry urges us not to pull back when results seem scarce. Citing 1 Corinthians 15:58, he reminds us that our labor in the Lord is not in vain. The breakthrough might not be immediate—but that doesn't mean it isn't coming. To illustrate, Pastor Torry shares a deeply personal story about his mother. After enduring three painful disappointments—including his grandfather walking away from the faith—she received a prophetic word that God would restore all three. Two came quickly. But for thirteen years, she prayed for her father. And then, one Sunday, the phone rang. He had gone to church and made things right. No fanfare—just a simple sentence. But behind it were thirteen years of persistence. Conclusion: Keep Playing the Long Game Faithful evangelism isn't always flashy. Sometimes it's quiet, repetitive, and unseen. But it matters. If you're carrying the burden of someone who seems far from God, don't lose heart. Stack your stones. Pray with power. Be patient. Stay persistent. Because your story may not be finished. And your faith might be the very thing God uses to bring someone else home.
