Things God Wants You To Know
There are many things God wants you to know. Thats why those things are in the Bible. Here are a few to remember when you’re facing tough times.
Lord’s Prayer
For many of us, we struggle with prayer and often feel guilty for how little we pray. When we finally do make time to pray, we often don’t know what to say. As we begin our journey into prayer, we want to begin with how Jesus taught his disciples how to pray.
Biblical Fasting
Fasting is focusing on God. God uses fasting and prayer in combination to do his work. As we yield to God in these spiritual disciplines we will see and sense God’s work.
