What is complicated and solvable is prayer. Other than prayer, this kind of miscellaneous
You cannot defeat the devil's scheme. I will not advise you in a few words
If I do, I have no choice but to leave it to the Lord, not mine.
The Lord will take care of it. Among the books I read this time, Professor Jiyong Kang meditated
I read a book called "An Overture for the Piling Bird" Call it a pireong
It is a bird in Tolstoy's novel, and if it flies around the world,
I tried to find happiness in the world, but in the end, I found happiness through God.
The bird's name is Pireungsae. Professor Kang explains the world's conditions for happiness.
I had almost everything and had a happy day. Cute as the third daughter of 2 boys and 3 girls
took the lead. From the age of 50 until now, I have been treating myself as a human being.
You took away the conditions of blessing one by one. mother passed away suddenly
After that, her husband, who was a professor, passed away from blood cancer, and her father
When he passed away, there was no time to rely on him. It's flat but overlapping
I even fell from a brain infarction, so I carried it to God, whom I believed only in words when I was a virgin

Dong came. Giving isn't about money. by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit

It is his testimony that he was able to get it without taking it in. Prayer will fulfill my will
I am not making my argument. God's thoughts and God's claims
It is to be accepted. About prayer through today's text
Let's take a look.
1. Prayer is not something we decide and prepare for.
How do people express their determination and determination? I swear.
But for us Christians, a more certain and clearer resolution than the specification
allowed to climb. That is what prayer is saying.
That's why I'm telling you not to specify it. more tied than the specification
One word is I will pray. Specifications are in the mind of a person. group
The way is in the heart of God.
Let's read verse 12.
“Above all, my brethren, do not swear by anything in heaven or on earth.
Do not swear by anything else, but yours is so.
Our answer is to say "no" and "no".
There are only yes and no, but management is done by God.
2. When should I pray?
You should always pray when you are happy or when you are sad or when you have no will.
Let's read verses 13-14 of the main text.
“Is any of you afflicted, let him pray,
[14] Is there anyone among you who is sick?
Invite the elders of the church, who anoint them in the name of the Lord
pray for it."
It is easy to find God when we suffer and get sick. However, the text
means to pray when you are suffering and sick and pray when you are happy
When there is a problem, prayer comes out. but the problem would have been solved
Sighs come out before prayers when we are faced with times or things that are too difficult. castle
The Lord is teaching us to pray. pray right now
I think it's a chance. Pray nationally, nationally and ecclesially
It seems to have rested too much. The Bible says it is a sin to stop praying while praying
is speaking
In 1 Samuel 12:23
“I will never sin before the Lord in ceasing to pray for you.
No, I will teach you the good and righteous way."
If there is one word for hymn, whether in hardship or joy, always pray without ceasing.

Meaning.
We propose to build a new prayer platform. all praying christian
Becoming all of you who save the nation, the nation, and the church
I hope that I will pray. I know the importance of prayer and I also know the necessity of prayer. That
But why can't we pray? God always keeps the door open
The prayers are ready to be heard. But we have a problem.
is. Why can't I make a call? What's wrong with the direct line with God?
would you?
3. Without forgiveness of sins, there is no prayer.
Ernie the Lord will raise me up
[16] Therefore, your sins will be forgiven you, even if you have committed
Confess to one another and pray for one another to be healed. The supplications of the righteous are at work.
has great power."
Here are three things to know:
1>Answers depend on God's sovereignty.
A person who prays a lot seems to be living as he pleases.
But the reality is that prayer is the fulfillment of God's thoughts in our hearts.
All. Who is free to answer yes no wait? if you pray
If you respond according to the person's situation, the sovereignty of answering lies with the person.
I will get you"

responds sovereignly.
Proverbs 16:1 says,
“The plans of the heart belong to men, but the answer of a word does not come from the Lord.
la"
The first thing a person who prays should learn is that the answer to prayer is not in me.
You must know that God exists.
The Lord will not listen."
What is the devil's way of getting in the way when we are going to pray?
It is a matter of harboring sin in the sound. Then I will pray more and more, but haha
Talking with me cannot be achieved. That's why we stand for each other's sins
I'm telling you to say
Let's read the first half of verse 16.
“Therefore confess your sins to one another and pray for one another that you may be healed.
la..."
Before praying, the first important thing is to confess and confess. Loving
What is the first thing you do when you go to meet someone?
Isn't that cleansing the face? prayer core high school
It was. Of course, bathing means taking a bath when we go out in front of an idol.
I'm going to see the Lord and there's nothing wrong with taking a bath.
Let's talk about Mr. How can we awaken ourselves?
And can you come before the Lord?
The Bible is telling us.
In 1 John 1:9
"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and
and will cleanse us from all unrighteousness."
What does the Bible say about us in unrighteousness? you make me clean
are speaking
If we are not clean, there is no communion with God. woo
When Lee has sin, God is dimmed. The currency is not clear.
The devil breaks in and intervenes. Why is there no response from us? certainty
Let's hear an answer. Let's read Isaiah 59:2.
“But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have
He hid his face so that he would not hear you."
3> The supplications of the righteous have a lot of power to work.
In addition, we have to pray and pray persistently for supplication. that the sovereignty rests with God
You get great power when you know and medallion to the end. not righteous. righteous
You receive great power when you pray.
Let's read the second half of verse 16.
"...the prayers of the righteous have great working power." The justified saints
If you pray persistently, you will receive an answer. When you pray for 10 or 20 years, God will
You will surely answer. Prayer must be earnest. My heart is getting desperate
When your heart gets hot, does the Holy Spirit teach you the subject of prayer that you do not know about?
All. Now, we have received many answers to our prayers with James's argument.
I am explaining with an example.
He also speaks to us today. Just ask for it.
Conclusion: Everyone has the power to pray if they are saints
Let's read verses 17-18 of the text.
“Elijah was a man like us, and he prayed that it would not rain.
He prayed, and there was no rain on the land for three years and six months [18] and he prayed again.
That is, the heaven gave rain and the earth brought forth fruit.” King Ahab did not repent.
So he did not take care of himself, but was prepared with Israel, and the rain

not a special person. The place where Elijah prayed during this pilgrimage to the Holy Land
I went. It's not a special place. Was it just an ordinary place of prayer?
All. If Elijah has the same temperament as ours, the only difference is that Elijah

If so, we must also have earnest prayers now. for the motherland
So
