THE THREE ___________________________ OF
PRAYER
A.
Prayer is a declaration of
_________________________.
"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. 6If 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. 7If you
remain in me and my words remain in you,
ask whatever you wish, and it will be
given you.”
- John 15:5-7
B. Prayer is an act of _________________________________ with
someone who loves you.
“I
no longer call you servants, because a
servant does not know his master's
business. Instead, I have called you
friends, for everything that I learned
from my Father I have made known to you.
16You did not choose me, but
I chose you and appointed you to go and
bear fruit--fruit that will last. Then
the Father will give you whatever you
ask in my name.”
- John 15:15-16
C. Prayer is an act of _______________________________ with the
most powerful being in the universe.
“I
tell you the truth, anyone who has faith
in me will do what I have been doing. He
will do even greater things than these,
because I am going to the Father.” - John 14:12
“And
I will do whatever you ask in my name,
so that the Son may bring glory to the
Father. 14You may ask me for
anything in my name, and I will do
it.”
- John 14:13-14
