Apostolic Teaching on Prayer (2)
from Doctrines of Grace on SermonAudio Hosted by Mark Hogan
Pastor Mark Hogan teaches on prayer in the general epistles, drawing from Hebrews 4:14-16 to show believers can come boldly to the throne of grace because Christ is a sympathetic high priest, and from Hebrews 13 to request prayer for ministry and restoration. He expounds James 1 and 4 on asking God for wisdom in faith and examining selfish motives, and James 5 on praying in suffering, praying for the sick, and the power of fervent righteous prayer. He also applies 1 Peter 3:7 about husbands honoring wives so prayers are not hindered, 1 Peter 4:7 and 5:6-7 on sober, watchful prayer and casting cares on God, and Jude 20-21 on building up faith by praying in the Holy Spirit. The application is to approach God confidently through Christ, pray with pure motives and faith, seek wisdom and help in suffering, maintain integrity in marriage, and depend on the Spirit in prayer.
