God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

Principles of Prayer: 1. We must be in fellowship with God: Reconciled to God through faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. 2. We must be obedient to God: By putting away sin, by maintaining right relationships with others, and by striving to abide in Christ. 3. We must depend upon the Lord Jesus Christ and His work on our behalf: We pray in His name. 4. We must exercise faith: Believing prayer has the assurance that we may receive beyond all our asking. 5. We must be ready for action, for faith and works go together: Having prayed, we must be the instruments on occasions by means of which God answers our prayers. 6. We must honestly desire God’s will to be done and His name to be glorified. 7. We must pray with sincerity: God has no time for hypocrites who make a lot of show without reality in their hearts, but He promises to be near those who call upon Him in truth.

Many people fail to make a clear distinction between punishment and discipline, and there is a very significant difference between these two concepts. Punishment is designed to execute retribution for a wrong done. Discipline, on the other hand, is to encourage the restoration of the one involved in the wrongdoing. Punishment is designed primarily to avenge a wrong and assert justice. Discipline is designed primarily as a corrective for the one who has failed to live according to the standards of the church and/or society.

A Message from our Provider:

“A thankful heart is one of the primary identifying characteristics of a believer. It stands in stark contrast to pride, selfishness, and worry. And it helps fortify the believer’s trust in the Lord and reliance of His provision, even in the toughest times. No matter how choppy the seas become, a believer’s heart is buoyed by constant praise and gratefulness to the Lord. #John MacArthur”
