Practicing Prayer | Talking With God

Emmaus Road Church | Fort Collins, Colorado

Sermon Scripture: Luke 11:5-13

This week we will be focusing on talking WITH God, which simply means, “sharing with God what is on our mind.” In this, our prayers will include a few critical elements.

1. Gratitude — talking with God about what is good in your life and world

2. Lament — talking with God about what is evil in your life and world

3. Petition and Intercession — asking God to fulfill his promises to overcome evil with good.

May we embrace prayer as we ask God to act and do things only he can do in the world; as we give God the space to do what only he can do in us.
