Principles of Petition

-
There are three major categories of prayer as seen in 1 Tim 2:1-4. These major categories include petition/ supplication, intercession, and praise/ thanksgiving. Petition involves asking God for personal needs. Intercession concerns prayers that invoke God's blessings on behalf of others. Praise, of course, concerns the giving of our love to God in worship and adoration.

Now to the principles of petition: as i draw them from the (change the world school of Prayer)

  1. Petition is Gods Gift. Mat. 6:9-11
  2. Petition need not be complicated
  3. petition may be repeated
  4. petition should be offered in total honesty
  5. petition must not become our only form of prayer
Would you take time to Pray today, a personal prayer!

Thats right, a personal asking, and make it BIG because God is Honored in the Magnitude of our Asking.

Blessings.

“WILLY MUTUNGA”… Gods “(mashiah),”

WHY I DO NOT OPPO SE WILLY MUTUNGA Isaiah 45:1-7 NB: The word anointed used in Isaiah 45, is the (Heb. mashiah ), and I have replaced the word Cyrus with Willy Mutunga. I am a pastor, possibly expected to support the sentiment of all the church leaders, I agree that they have wisdom in what they put forth, but I chose to look at the matter at hand in a totally different way, hoping I will not be labeled a rebel. Yesterday while I way in prayer, I found myself praying in an interesting manner, it was to my surprise that I was praying different. After reading about Cyrus and researching much on him, I begun to pray, “ God, give us a Cyrus, someone you have laid your hands and anointing on, they may be Christians or non Christians, but because you appoint all authorities, and you are over all, and your purposes cannot be thwarted, Lord give us a Cyrus in our days, one who will do your will, even when he thinks he is bent on doing his own will .” I must say, that I don’t advocate f

Think It With Me.. Contemplate

I have been thinking of putting some quotes that help me reflect daily, and for the purpose of setting the blog rolling, i want to share this with you. About Faith "Opening up our faith is not a process of convincing God to give us more of what we need to live the christian life. Rather, living the Christian life is a process of learning how to use more of what God has already given us." on your comments lets talk about faith...

We are Born "HOMOZ AND LESBIANS"....

-
Hi, Welcome again to another time to reason and make it straight. Are we born Homoz, Lesbians, Thieves, Liars, Gossips etc and the list goes on? Ah My answer is yes! I am certain that you have heard of Homosexual people saying this is how they were born, I find truth in their statement in this way, first, all of us are born sinners, that is by nature we sin naturally, we SIN,,, we engage in homosexuality, we engage in lies, in stealing naturally, because we are depraved and fallen. Turning on to the Bible I see Isaiah say, two things, that without choice... he was born in sin and lived among people who sinned, that is By nature he is a sinner and by default he lives in a sinful environment... but before you conclude, He has a choice but the choice will only come when God gives him the alternative, I.e the Light, and a chance to be made a new creature. Isaiah 6:5 Psalm 51:5 say more, Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me. Yet you desired faithfu
