Episode Details

God's story shows a range of individuals who pray with sincerity to God: Moses, Hannah, Elijah, Hezekiah, the Disciples and also recorded, is Jesus' prayer for you and me (John 17).  In his sermon on the Mount, Jesus warns about hypocritical prayers - prayers for show rather than spoken with sincerity to God.  Prayer had become a cultural thing to many.  In Matthew 6:5-8, Jesus teaches us how to pray with sincerity and the right heart attitude as individuals.  He also follows this up with a pattern of how to pray together (The Lord's Prayer).  In World War II, the British nation prayed with sincerity to God in 7 national days of prayer.  God answered with their prayers in miraculous ways.  How might sincere prayers be a starting point for us to see God work miracles in our community today?
Matthew 6:5-8 and 1 Kings 18:22-38
