Prayer - Intimacy with the Father (Psalm 130-131) [Jay Baas]

God so desires a relationship with us, not a casual friendship or acquaintance nor to just provide direction in our lives. No, He desires an intimate relationship with us. It’s the kind that the world strives for between two people but can never achieve. It is the kind that no other religion offers or believes in. But it is entirely different. He already knows us intimately, down to every thought we have had to every fear that we hold to so dearly. And He wants us to know Him through his Word and through prayer. This Sunday we are going to look at what this God-desired intimacy looks like, examining examples from the Bible and talk about how we can grow closer and closer to our Heavenly Father. We’ll be reminded about what Jesus has done at the Father’s will to allow us this privilege.
