Understanding Prayer (Part 2) | How Faith & Prayer Work Together

Описание: In Part 2 of Understanding Prayer, Pastor Ralph shows how faith is the engine that carries our prayers with confidence—and why prayer without faith is just words. We revisit last week’s foundations (faith, agreement, thanksgiving, intercession, confession, supplication, praying in the Spirit) and then dive into how to pray in alignment with God’s will, believe before we see, and persist until the answer comes.

In This Message

Why faith gives prayer its power
How to pray according to God’s will (not just our wishes)
Believing you’ve received when you pray (Mark 11:24)
What it means to seek God diligently (Hebrews 11:6)
The prayer of faith for healing (James 5:15)
How to refuse doubt, stay persistent, and mix prayer with thanksgiving
Practical mindset shifts: speak life, align with promises, record answers
