Praying is Believing | Believe | Pastor Steve Andres

What this episode covers

Who are you praying for today? This weekend Pastor Steve Andres continued our BELIEVE series with a message about approaching God on behalf of others.Genesis 18:23,25Abraham approached the Lord and said, “Will you sweep away both the righteous and the wicked? Surely you wouldn’t do that! Should not the Judge of all the earth do what is right?” God invites Abraham into conversation about his plan to bring judgment to Sodom, and Abraham intercedes for the people of the city. What does this teach us?1) Praying is believing.We can’t trust and not pray, and we can’t pray without trusting. God knows we aren’t experts at prayer, but he gives us the Holy Spirit to help us when we pray!2) Praying is hoping.We can’t pray for others without becoming more hopeful about them. Prayer is important because the less time you spend with truth the easier it is to believe lies. 3) Praying is loving.Our prayerlessness is not for a lack of opportunity, it’s for a lack of love. We have access to God through Jesus, which means the only way to fail at prayer is to not pray!4) Praying is priesting.Prayer stands between someone else and God and says, I will take up their case! This is the example we have in Jesus, who is our advocate in heaven!Hebrews 7:25Therefore he is able to save completely those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them.God invites us to pray and to intercede for others. Who are you praying for today?
