DAY SIX - Provision and Confession

When we pray, it is important to go to God with the needs in your life. Gene admonishes us to ask for ‘daily bread,’ and not what we think we need to make us happy.Another thing needed for balanced praying according to this model prayer from Jesus found in Matthew 6 is the confession component. Friends, this may be the hardest part for many of us to include in our prayers because the 2 hardest words in the English language to say are, “I’m sorry..” But Jesus said when you pray there ought to be a confession component where you say, “God, forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.” Then you will experience God’s fresh grace for your life.Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion. Grounded in Scripture and shaped by Eastside’s conviction that God’s grace is for everyone, each episode invites you to discover God’s presence and activity in your life.
