25. War Room

I was really blown away by the movie War Room, it is all about prayer and the power of prayer. It opened my eyes to the dimensions of prayer and the value of prayer. It’s no religious chant, or an act of repeating words or showing off in-front of others to appear Holy or that we are doing the church thing.
Prayer is an intimate one on one conversation with the almighty, wonderful God that you are having a relationship with. It is a special time and you are going before God who is above all.
Prayer is so powerful that we don’t even realise what it can do for others and our own lives. The physical world is always effected by what’s happening in the spiritual world first so prayer is the place to go!
We tend to give up half way, have the wrong intentions with the wrong heart, only to pray to have our own …show more content…

Fighting for others, for your own soul, your life, crying out, pouring out your situation, crying, praising Him, glorifying Him being on your knees, on your feet, sitting, shouting or whispering. Be yourself and ask for help, direction, wisdom and forgiveness, pray for others and your loved ones.
You can go to Him any time, day, noon and night and in fact anytime you like, can be short and it can be all night long. Prayer is a blessing and it is a weapon against the evil one, rebuke the evil one in Jesus name and also seal your prayers in His name as you cannot speak to the Father without going through His Son first. You can try but your prayers will hit the ceiling. The name of Jesus is what makes all the difference to your prayers and your relationship with the Father in Heaven.
Make your prayer life your priority and above anything physical. Ask God to go before you, Ask God to guide you and protect you. We don’t realise the power those prayers have and we need them in this falling

    Black Hawk War was caused when Black Hawk and his tribe lost their lands to the white settlers who were coming over from the eastern part of the country. Black Hawk and his tribe were forced to cross the Mississippi river. However soon Black Hawk crossed the river again to reclaim his ancestral lands back and this action sparked a war as he terrorized nearby forts and villages. The U.S. militia led by General Atkinson and a young Abraham Lincoln were tasked to chase down Black Hawk and so-called British Band, who were making their way to take back what was theirs. “Despite warnings from Keokuk that the tribal council would not support them, Black Hawk and other Sauk and Fox warriors and families returned from their winter quarters

    “Man O’ War was the kind of thoroughbred that brought you closer to divinity than most people had been before.” This quote by an unknown describes Man O’ War well; “Man O’ War was America’s legendary thoroughbred race-horse” (“Man O’ War 1917-1947”) and was the type of horse that taught his rider, the people around him, and the entire world that if you keep pushing you can reach any and all goals. Man O’ War was a loving horse that made many feel as if they were getting closer to God. To most people, Man O’ War was a work of art that was brought down to them straight from God because he was perfect; he was a gorgeous stallion that seemed to most as unbeatable. Man O’ War raced his heart out and dominated every race he was in, even the one race he lost. Man O’ War was an important figure in the 1920s American history because he changed the perspective of horse racing forever.

    While settling the United States, Americans ran into many conflicts, including Native American tribes that we unrightfully forced to move out. Although it was wrong of us to kick them out of their land, we did it anyway, creating many conflicts that will shape the way we settle America. We treated them unfairly and we're inhumane, which created enemies we will have for many years.

  • Understanding the Trinity Doctrine: A Biblical Perspective

    In the “Model Prayer”, Jesus taught that prayer is to be directed to the Father, showing His role in prayer: “In this manner, therefore, pray: Our Father in heaven…” (Matthew 6:9). Prayer, being directed to the Father, goes through Jesus (the Word), as He is the “one Mediator between God and men” (1 Timothy 2:5). Finally, the Holy Spirit’s role in prayer (though less clear than that of the other two) is to help us in our weakness (Romans 8:26). It is in this area, more than almost any other, that many attempt to change the assigned roles of each member of the Godhead. While the Father’s role in prayer is for it to be directed to Him, many attempt to direct prayer to the other two members of Deity. Because each member of the Godhead has such a clearly defined role in prayer as revealed in Scripture, to attempt to change of modify those roles seems to be quite presumptuous, unauthorized, and dangerous. Instead, let us hold fast to the Divine pattern for prayer as laid out in the

  • Prayer is a Key Christian Belief

    1517 Words  | 4 Pages

    Pray is a means of communicating with God. Aside from studying the Word of God, prayer is a method used to help us develop a relationship with God and also to know His will for our lives. Prayer is the privilege of speaking and listening to God. Easton’s Bible Dictionary defines prayer as conversation with God; the intercourse of the soul with God, not in contemplation or meditation, but in direct address to him. Prayer may be oral or mental, occasional or constant, ejaculatory; or formal. It is a "beseeching the Lord" (Ex. 32:11); "pouring out the soul before the Lord" (1 Sam. 1:15); "praying and crying to heaven" (2 Chr. 32:20); "seeking unto God and making supplication" (Job 8:5); "drawing near to God" (Ps. 73:28); and "bowing the knees" (Eph. 3:14).

  • Prayer: A Speech On The Universal Call To Prayer

    First of all, there is something that we have to get straight, and that is that prayer is for everyone. God calls us all to prayer, because he calls and invites us all to a personal relationship with him. He knows us, but he wants us to know him and he wants us to know ourselves in him. We are his, shouldn’t we know the person who calls us his own? The Catechism of the Catholic Church calls this the “Universal Call to Prayer.” The fact is, that firstly, “man is in search of God.” (CCC 2566) We are all born with this desire
