Pray for His Presence, Power, and Perseverance!

As we move on to our last series for our this year's theme, The Power of Perseverance, I will begin with prayer... a sermon on how to pray for perseverance for ourselves and for the brethren.  The title of the sermon "Pray for His Presence, Power, and Perseverance!"   We will discover the reason we should pray in this way and for these things.  We will learn the foundation of such a prayer is knowing fully God's will.  We will also find that in so doing we will empowered to live like our Lord Jesus in this life!  This is possible but as we will find out it can only be accomplished through the power He has given us through the indwelling presence of His Spirit.  I understanding these great truths and embracing them we will be overflowing with thanksgiving and gratitude that He has counted us worth to share in His glorious character
