Our Faith is Increased When We Pray in the Will of God, Part 1

Our prayer motivator verse from the Word of God today is Matthew 18:19 which reads: "Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven."

Our prayer motivator quote today is from Oswald Chambers. He said: "Our ordinary views of prayer are not found in the New Testament. We look upon prayer as a means for getting something for ourselves; the Bible idea of prayer is that we may get to know God Himself."

Our prayer motivator devotional today is part 1 of a new series titled "OUR FAITH IS INCREASED WHEN WE PRAY IN THE WILL OF GOD" from Dr. John R. Rice.

Believing, having faith about the answer, is many times stressed in the Bible as a certain way to secure the answer to our prayers. Mark 9:23 says, "Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth."

Mark 11:22-24 says "And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them."

Matthew 21:22 says, "And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive." These verses along with other precious promises, show that all things are possible to him that believeth, that whatever you desire you may have, if you believe and do not doubt.
