1 Timothy | The Posture of Prayer - Season 5, Episode 58

Why do some prayers seem to go unanswered while others move the hand of God? In 1 Timothy 2:8, the Apostle Paul prescribes three conditions of the heart that make prayer truly effectual: holy hands representing a life free of unconfessed sin, hands lifted without wrath reflecting reconciled relationships with others, and hands raised without doubting reflecting genuine faith in God's power and willingness to respond. Pastor Dorrell illuminates how effectual prayer is not a formula or religious ritual, but a relational posture of alignment — bringing a clean heart, a forgiving spirit, and confident expectation before the throne of grace. Examine the condition of your hands, reconcile what is broken, and pray with the persistent confidence that God is both listening and able.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
