Practicing Prayer | Talking To God

Emmaus Road Church | Fort Collins, Colorado

Sermon Scripture: Luke 11:1-8

Jesus did all sorts of amazing things, but the disciples do not ask Jesus to teach them how to heal the sick, or to cast out demons, or perform miracles. They ask him to teach them how to pray.

The disciples were smart enough to know that Jesus was experiencing something in prayer that they were not. Prayer wasn’t a duty, but a delight. He really enjoyed his Father’s company. In prayer Jesus was drinking from and replenishing a deep well, and they wanted a taste of the water.
