How Do I Find Him? (Prayer 2)
Vince D'Acchioli, 2/14/2002


New Page 1

Session Outline:

John 15:1-8 "I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. 2 He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful. 3 You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. 4 Remain in me, and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.

5 "I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. 6 If anyone does not remain in me, he is like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. 7 If you remain in me and my words remain in you,

ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you. 8 This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.

Six Principles for effective prayer:

1. _______________ it

2. Find a ____________ place

3. Have a quiet __________

4. Seek _______ first...not what you __________

5. Ask His ________ in all matters (Mark 14:36) (1Jn. 5:14)

6. Pray with ______________ against the world, flesh & devil (Luke 10:19)

 

Matt. 6:9-14 "This, then, is how you should pray: "`Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, 10 your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. 11 Give us today our daily bread. 12 Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. 13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. 14 For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
 

Life Implication:

Daily prayer to God is the only way to stay close to Him. God desires to spend time with us every day. He wants you to come to Him for everything, not just when you find yourself in a tough spot...or as a last resort.

A man can never assume his God-given place as priest of his home unless he is actively praying for his family.

Psalm 5:3 In the morning, O LORD, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait in expectation.

Discussion Question:

What has been my prayer pattern? How can I begin today to develop a more powerful prayer habit that will last?
