Prayer is a conversation between us and God - a one to one conversation with our creator. (We will consider prayer with others later.) Today I would like to look at scripture that provides instruction on how to pray.

"If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek...

It is with great sadness that we learnt about the death of President John Magufuli. Today we want to salute the President for the brave stance he took by seeking God for leading his country through this worldwide pandemic. We pass our condolences to his family and his people.

The Prayer Jesus taught His disciples as recorded in Matthew 6 and Luke 11 gives us a good format for what to pray for.

1. The prayer starts with words of honour and praise to the Father - "Hallowed be Thy name"; and continues with our submission to the Father - "Thy will be done".
2. It then allows...

Our previous discussion on 'What is prayer' highlighted some of the reasons for 'Why we pray'. By praying to God we admit our dependence on Him and confirm our faith in His ability to help us. Also, the act of prayer is worship; it allows us to give thanks to God for His goodness.

2. Let no one deceives you with empty words (Eph.5:6)
3. Let no one deceive you in any way (2Thes.2:3)

Based on these frequent warnings there must be a real...

Satan, our adversary, is roaming around seeing who he can devour. Today let's look at guidance from the Word on how to gain victory over satan.

1. When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears and delivers them out of all their troubles. (Ps.34:17)
2. This is what the Lord says to you: 'Do not be...

"I tell you, there is joy before the angels of God over one sinner who repents" (Luke 15:10).

Father Yahuah, today we come before you to plead for mercy for sinners. Father we see around us much brokenness and many who are trapped in the snares of the enemy. Many are so tightly bound in a web of s...
