September 15 | Romans – Grasping The Gospel, Romans 8:26-28, Part 28: Praying Through Our Cares, Tears, and Fears – Pastor Mark Pospisil

Synopsis: Prayer is a powerful gift that the Lord has given to us. Sometimes, we are going through hard trials or other circumstances and we do not even know how to pray or what to pray for. The Lord has blessed us with another gift. He has given us the Spirit to help us in our weakness. The Spirit intercedes for us and guides us in all the truth. He helps us to be able to pray through our cares, tears and fears. This morning, we are going to see how the Spirit “comforts” us in our lives and through the powerful act of prayer.

Fighter Verse: Romans 8:26 – “Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words.”

Core Ministries – Weekly Update

I mean, a hand just appears and the fingers write a message on a wall? What?!? Do you have a guy to call if that ever happened to you? Well….Daniel had been faithful before in many things, and that faithfulness caused him to have more and more opportunities before the king. What would our lives look like if we committed to be faithful just one day at a time?
