The Secret Place
from Discipleship Tape Ministries · host Russell L. Kelfer
We have looked at the need to pray and at the essence of prayer. Now we begin to look at HOW we are to pray. If we are to look at how we are to pray, we must begin by looking at Jesus' unusual commands in Matthew, chapter six. It is a look at a trinity of spiritual duties which had a common thread of secrecy that bound them together. They would turn out to be three things Christians often do either subtly or overtly to receive the acclaim of men. Because of that Jesus makes it clear that unless you are doing them in such a way that men do not even know about it, you are in effect, not pleasing God at all. In fact, the reward God has stored up for these duties will be completely lost in eternity. Read lesson: 1329B
