기도 101 A BEGINNER’S GUIDE TO PRAYER

What happens when you practice good habits? You grow up!
“Solid food is for mature people, whose minds have been trained by practice to know the difference between good and evil.” (GW)

기도 – Week 2

“One day Jesus was praying in a certain place. When he finished, one of the disciples said to him, ‘Lord, teach us to pray . . .’” (NIV)
The difference between successful & unsuccessful people
of the disciples said to him, ‘Lord, teach us to pray . . .’” (NIV)
is that successful people develops habits that others won’t!
누가복음 11:1 NKRV
1 예수께서 한 곳에서 기도하시고 마치시매 제자 중 하나가 여짜오되 주여 요한이 자기 제자들에게 기도를 가르친 것과 같이 우리에게도 가르쳐 주옵소서
ILL: Tom Brady -oldest QB in NFL. Why? Read the list of his habits..
Our frustrations with prayer are caused by: ____________________
Most are not willing to be that disciplined!
· not a magic wand
“All good athletes train hard and practice to get better. They do it to win a prize that won’t last. But we practice to win a prize that will last forever!
· not a fire extinguisher
During 40 Days of Prayer we’ll focus on 4 habits to strengthen you
· not a tug of war
؄ Habit of weekly large group worship (weekends)
· not a ritual to relieve guilt

기도에 관한 4가지 기본적인 사실

؄ Habit of small group fellowship (weekday) Midweek lift!
This is how Jesus STRUCTURED the church for your support: large/small
1. GOD LOVES FOR ME TO TALK WITH HIM ABOUT ANYTHING
screen “Every day the believers had the habit of meeting together in the temple courts (to worship together) AND also in their homes (for fellowship). They ate together and celebrated with happy and thankful hearts. They praised God and the whole community liked what they saw in these people. As a result, the Lord added to their groups daily as their neighbors were being saved.” To be a strong believer- need both!
“The Lord is like a father to his children, tender and compassionate to those who reverence him.” (NLT)
Then ؄ Habit of a daily time alone with God Prayer & Bible read
who reverence him.” (NLT)
시편 103:13 NKRV
13 아버지가 자식을 긍휼히 여김 같이 여호와께서는 자기를 경외하는 자를 긍휼히 여기시나니
“We can be confident in approaching God, knowing that he listens to us whenever we ask him for anything according to his will. And since we know that he hears us when we make our requests, then we can be sure that he will answer us.”
؄ Habit of memorizing God’s Word
요한1서 5:14–15 NKRV
14 그를 향하여 우리가 가진 바 담대함이 이것이니 그의 뜻대로 무엇을 구하면 들으심이라 15 우리가 무엇이든지 구하는 바를 들으시는 줄을 안즉 우리가 그에게 구한 그것을 얻은 줄을 또한 아느니라
PRAYER IS:
Would you like to succeed in life? I want you to
“I have good plans for you, not plans to hurt you. I will give you hope and a good future. Then you will call my name. You will come to me and pray to me, and I will listen to you. (NCV)
Only promise of success in Bible
screen “Always remember what is written in this Book. Read it and think about it every day and be sure to obey everything written in it.If you do this, you will be prosperous and successful in your life.” Do you think God is lying here?
good future. Then you will call my name. You will come to me and pray to me, and I will listen to you. (NCV)
예레미야 29:11–12 NKRV
11 여호와의 말씀이니라 너희를 향한 나의 생각을 내가 아나니 평안이요 재앙이 아니니라 너희에게 미래와 희망을 주는 것이니라 12 너희가 내게 부르짖으며 내게 와서 기도하면 내가 너희들의 기도를 들을 것이요
Now to help you with these 4 habits, we’ve designed
2. GOD LISTENS TO PRAYERS THAT ARE SINCERE & SIMPLE
“When you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. I tell you the truth, they’ve received their reward in full. Instead, when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. And when you pray, do not keep babbling on and on like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.” (NIV)

마태복음 6:5–8 NKRV
5 또 너희는 기도할 때에 외식하는 자와 같이 하지 말라 그들은 사람에게 보이려고 회당과 큰 거리 어귀에 서서 기도하기를 좋아하느니라 내가 진실로 너희에게 이르노니 그들은 자기 상을 이미 받았느니라 6 너는 기도할 때에 네 골방에 들어가 문을 닫고 은밀한 중에 계신 네 아버지께 기도하라 은밀한 중에 보시는 네 아버지께서 갚으시리라 7 또 기도할 때에 이방인과 같이 중언부언하지 말라 그들은 말을 많이 하여야 들으실 줄 생각하느니라 8 그러므로 그들을 본받지 말라 구하기 전에 너희에게 있어야 할 것을 하나님 너희 아버지께서 아시느니라
4. WE GROW WHEN WE HELP EACH OTHER GROW

“I want us to help each other with the faith we have. Your faith will help me, and my faith will help you.” (NCV)
3. GOD LIKES TO SHOW HIS GRACE BY ANSWERING PRAYER
FACT: You will never grow to spiritual maturity by yourself!
Call to me and I will answer you. I will show you marvelous and wondrous things that you could never figure out on your own.” (Message)
(Message)
You must have other people in your life!

3 너는 내게 부르짖으라 내가 네게 응답하겠고 네가 알지 못하는 크고 은밀한 일을 네게 보이리라

God wired us this way! 56 one another’s.
마태복음 7:11 NKRV
11 너희가 악한 자라도 좋은 것으로 자식에게 줄 줄 알거든 하물며 하늘에 계신 너희 아버지께서 구하는 자에게 좋은 것으로 주시지 않겠느냐

Because the #1 skill God wants you to learn is LOVE!
4. GOD LONGS TO BE CLOSE TO ME!
We only grow in community with others!

5. WE GROW WHEN WE EXPECT TO GROW (the faith factor)

누구에게 기도합니까?

기도 – Part 3

Jesus said, "According to your faith will it be done to you."
Do you know what God is doing in your life right now? Exactly what you expect them to do!
Your understanding of what God is really like shapes everything else in your life, including how you pray. “The Lord is always good. He is always loving and kind, and his faithfulness goes on and on to each succeeding generation.” (LB)
Expecting TO grow? Miracle? Breakthrough? Set a goal.

5 여호와는 선하시니 그의 인자하심이 영원하고 그의 성실하심이 대대에 이르리로다

하나님은 언제나 선하시기 때문에 . . .

You need to start this campaign with the spirit of faith:
1. 나의 삶을 위한 하나님의 계획도 언제나 선하다.
I AM going to grow a lot in the next 40 days!!

11 여호와의 말씀이니라 너희를 향한 나의 생각을 내가 아나니 평안이요 재앙이 아니니라 너희에게 미래와 희망을 주는 것이니라

“We know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose.” (NLT)
로마서 8:28 NKRV
28 우리가 알거니와 하나님을 사랑하는 자 곧 그의 뜻대로 부르심을 입은 자들에게는 모든 것이 합력하여 선을 이루느니라

Q: One yr from today will you be spiritually stronger? Only if intend to be!
a GOOD plan to save the lives of many people!”
창세기 50:20 NKRV
20 당신들은 나를 해하려 하였으나 하나님은 그것을 선으로 바꾸사 오늘과 같이 많은 백성의 생명을 구원하게 하시려 하셨나니
Ask a very personal question: how badly do you want to grow?
“So, we can rejoice when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they are GOOD for us – they help us learn patient endurance.” (NLT)
Do you really want to grow up? Or do you want just a spiritual baby?

로마서 5:3 NKRV
3 다만 이뿐 아니라 우리가 환난 중에도 즐거워하나니 이는 환난은 인내를,

God: “You'll find me when you get serious about finding me and want it more than anything else.” (Mes)

GO THROUH CARD

시편 27:10–13 NKRV
10 내 부모는 나를 버렸으나 여호와는 나를 영접하시리이다 11 여호와여 주의 도를 내게 가르치시고 내 원수를 생각하셔서 평탄한 길로 나를 인도하소서 12 내 생명을 내 대적에게 맡기지 마소서 위증자와 악을 토하는 자가 일어나 나를 치려 함이니이다 13 내가 산 자들의 땅에서 여호와의 선하심을 보게 될 줄 확실히 믿었도다
“(Jesus) understands our weaknesses, for he faced all of the same temptations we do, yet he did not sin. So let us come boldly with confidence to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find the grace to help us when we need it.” (NLT)
IN 1980... I made a 40 yr covenant with this church
히브리서 4:15–16 NKRV
15 우리에게 있는 대제사장은 우리의 연약함을 동정하지 못하실 이가 아니요 모든 일에 우리와 똑같이 시험을 받으신 이로되 죄는 없으시니라 16 그러므로 우리는 긍휼하심을 받고 때를 따라 돕는 은혜를 얻기 위하여 은혜의 보좌 앞에 담대히 나아갈 것이니라
didn’t really think about it until the 35th anniversary.
3. GOD PUT MY GOOD ABOVE HIS OWN GOOD.
“I am the GOOD shepherd; I know my own sheep, and they know me . . . And I will sacrifice my life for my sheep.”
Now; IF it’s okay with you- I’d like to sign a new covenant
And I will sacrifice my life for my sheep.”
And stay here a little while longer!
요한복음 10:14–15 NKRV
14 나는 선한 목자라 나는 내 양을 알고 양도 나를 아는 것이 15 아버지께서 나를 아시고 내가 아버지를 아는 것 같으니 나는 양을 위하여 목숨을 버리노라

So Bottom line) What are YOU going to do for the next 7 weeks?
4. HE DOES NOT SAY YES TO EVERY REQUEST!
2 choices: 1. Do nothing... miss out.. & watch everyone else grow & benefit
“You fathers – if your children asked for a fish to eat, would you give them a snake instead? Or if they asked for an egg, would you give them a scorpion? Of course not! So if you, as sinful people, know how to give GOOD gifts to your children, how much more will your Heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!” (NLT)
2. Get serious about the most important part of your life
Of course not! So if you, as sinful people, know how to give GOOD gifts to your children, how much more will your Heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!” (NLT)

11 너희 중에 아버지 된 자로서 누가 아들이 생선을 달라 하는데 생선 대신에 뱀을 주며 12 알을 달라 하는데 전갈을 주겠느냐 13 너희가 악할지라도 좋은 것을 자식에게 줄 줄 알거든 하물며 너희 하늘 아버지께서 구하는 자에게 성령을 주시지 않겠느냐 하시니라
DEVELOP SOME NEW HABITS – destiny! PRAYER.
Jesus replied, “You don’t realize what you are asking for!” (NLT)
마태복음 20:22 NKRV
22 예수께서 대답하여 이르시되 너희는 너희가 구하는 것을 알지 못하는도다 내가 마시려는 잔을 너희가 마실 수 있느냐 그들이 말하되 할 수 있나이다
God says, “My thoughts are completely different from yours, and my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine. For just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.” (NLT)
이사야 55:8–9 NKRV
8 이는 내 생각이 너희의 생각과 다르며 내 길은 너희의 길과 다름이니라 여호와의 말씀이니라 9 이는 하늘이 땅보다 높음 같이 내 길은 너희의 길보다 높으며 내 생각은 너희의 생각보다 높음이니라

PRAYING IN FIVE DIMENSIONS

기도 – Part 4

We’re wired for prayer!
scr “God has planted eternity in the human heart.”
1. God is a multidimensional God.
2. We’re not very good at prayer.
o We SEE IT in GOD’S creation.
Everybody feels inadequate. Many are afraid to pray publicly
“Since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities – his eternal power and divine nature – have been clearly seen (in) what has been made, so that men are without excuse.” (NIV)
and divine nature – have been clearly seen (in) what has been made, so that
CARD 1
men are without excuse.” (NIV)
- Even St. Paul considered himself to be a novice at prayer!
로마서 1:20 NKRV
20 창세로부터 그의 보이지 아니하는 것들 곧 그의 영원하신 능력과 신성이 그가 만드신 만물에 분명히 보여 알려졌나니 그러므로 그들이 핑계하지 못할지니라
scr “We don't even know what we should pray for,
“Can you fathom the limits and bounds of the greatness and power of God? The sky is no limit for God, but it lies beyond your reach! God knows the world of the dead, but you do not know it. God's greatness is broader than the earth, and wider than the sea.” (TEV)
The sky is no limit for God, but it lies beyond your reach! God knows the

“One day Jesus was praying in a certain place. When
욥기 11:7–9 NKRV
7 네가 하나님의 오묘함을 어찌 능히 측량하며 전능자를 어찌 능히 완전히 알겠느냐 8 하늘보다 높으시니 네가 무엇을 하겠으며 스올보다 깊으시니 네가 어찌 알겠느냐 9 그의 크심은 땅보다 길고 바다보다 넓으니라
o We see it in Jesus’ incarnation.
he finished, one of the disciples said "Lord, teach us to pray...”
“The Word became a human being and lived among us! We saw his glory . . . and he was full of grace and truth! (NCV)
Why I titled this intro to 40 DOPr “A Beginner’s Guide...
요한복음 1:14 NKRV
14 말씀이 육신이 되어 우리 가운데 거하시매 우리가 그의 영광을 보니 아버지의 독생자의 영광이요 은혜와 진리가 충만하더라
God doesn’t talking to him to feel so difficult!
“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. (NIV)
(NIV)
3. Our frustrations with prayer are caused by our misconceptions
히브리서 13:8 NKRV
8 예수 그리스도는 어제나 오늘이나 영원토록 동일하시니라
“Grace & peace to you from Him who is, and who was, and who is to come.” (NIV)
So many false ideas about prayer out there. Mention 4
1. Prayer is NOT a magic wand!
(NIV)
요한계시록 1:4 NKRV
4 요한은 아시아에 있는 일곱 교회에 편지하노니 이제도 계시고 전에도 계셨고 장차 오실 이시며 그의 보좌 앞에 있는 일곱 영과
o We SEE IT IN HOW THE HOLY SPIRIT MOVES.
Not an enchanted tool you wave like Harry Potter to change your situation!
Not a magic bottle you rub & God comes out to fulfill every desire “Your wish is my command!” God is not your Genie
“The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you don't know where the wind comes from or where it's going. That's the way it is with everyone born of the Holy Spirit.” (GW)
요한복음 3:8 NKRV
8 바람이 임의로 불매 네가 그 소리는 들어도 어디서 와서 어디로 가는지 알지 못하나니 성령으로 난 사람도 다 그러하니라
Not a secret incantation – special words used to get your own way
“He does wonders that cannot be understood; he does so many miracles they cannot be counted. When he passes me, I can’t see him; and when he goes by me, I don’t recognize him!” (NCV)
“Abracadabra! You’re now a good husband!”
they cannot be counted. When he passes me, I can’t see him; and when he
goes by me, I don’t recognize him!” (NCV)
“Hocus Pocus! Give me the promotion!
욥기 9:10–11 NKRV
10 측량할 수 없는 큰 일을, 셀 수 없는 기이한 일을 행하시느니라 11 그가 내 앞으로 지나시나 내가 보지 못하며 그가 내 앞에서 움직이시나 내가 깨닫지 못하느니라
2. BECAUSE God is multidimensional I’m NEVER ALONE.
(not the droids)
“Where could I go to escape from you? Where could I ever get away from your presence? If I went up to heaven, you’d be there; if I lay down in the world of the dead, you’d be there. If I flew way beyond the east or lived in the farthest place in the west, you’d be there to lead me. You’d be there to help me. I could ask the darkness to hide me . . . but even darkness is not dark for you, and the night is as bright as the day. Darkness and light are the same to you.” (TEV)
ORIGIN:- a corruption of the Latin phrase used in a Catholic Mas
Hoc est corpus meum = “This is the Body of Christ”
your presence? If I went up to heaven, you’d be there; if I lay down in the
world of the dead, you’d be there. If I flew way beyond the east or lived in
2. Prayer is NOT a fire extinguisher!

시편 139:7–12 NKRV
7 내가 주의 영을 떠나 어디로 가며 주의 앞에서 어디로 피하리이까 8 내가 하늘에 올라갈지라도 거기 계시며 스올에 내 자리를 펼지라도 거기 계시니이다 9 내가 새벽 날개를 치며 바다 끝에 가서 거주할지라도 10 거기서도 주의 손이 나를 인도하시며 주의 오른손이 나를 붙드시리이다 11 내가 혹시 말하기를 흑암이 반드시 나를 덮고 나를 두른 빛은 밤이 되리라 할지라도 12 주에게서는 흑암이 숨기지 못하며 밤이 낮과 같이 비추이나니 주에게는 흑암과 빛이 같음이니이다

5 차원 기도 HOW TO PRAY IN FIVE DIMENSIONS

Get bad news: start praying! Hurricane coming!
“God if you get me out of this mess..!”
AS I PRAY . . .
Treated as a LAST RESORT
1. I look BACKWARD to the Cross!
“God paid a ransom to save you from the empty life . . . He paid for you with the precious lifeblood of Christ, the sinless, spotless Lamb of God.” (NLT)
“All we can do now is pray” Has it come to that?
(NLT)
Talking to God is not just for emergencies!
베드로전서 1:18–19 NKRV
18 너희가 알거니와 너희 조상이 물려 준 헛된 행실에서 대속함을 받은 것은 은이나 금 같이 없어질 것으로 된 것이 아니요 19 오직 흠 없고 점 없는 어린 양 같은 그리스도의 보배로운 피로 된 것이니라
another misconception..
The Cross reminds me
3. Prayer is not a tug of war with God!
o How deeply God loves me
You have wear God down until he give in & gives you.
o How costly evil & sin is
.
o How completely I’m forgiven
2. I look UPWARD TO MY FATHER’S LOVING FACE!
Beg – please, please, pretty please give me
Bargain – God, if you do this for me, I’ll do that for you
“You should not act like cowering, fearful slaves, since God’s Spirit has adopted you as children into God’s Family! Instead, by his Spirit we simply cry out Abba! Father! and God’s Spirit affirms that we really are his children! And since we are now God’s children, we’re also heirs with Christ, and will share in both his suffering and his glory!”
Bribe – make a sales pitch to God
로마서 8:15–17 NKRV
15 너희는 다시 무서워하는 종의 영을 받지 아니하고 양자의 영을 받았으므로 우리가 아빠 아버지라고 부르짖느니라 16 성령이 친히 우리의 영과 더불어 우리가 하나님의 자녀인 것을 증언하시나니 17 자녀이면 또한 상속자 곧 하나님의 상속자요 그리스도와 함께 한 상속자니 우리가 그와 함께 영광을 받기 위하여 고난도 함께 받아야 할 것이니라
GOD WANTS MY PRAYERS TO BE
Keep pestering & badgering God until he gives in
Jesus told a parable to illustrate the exact opposite
o Abba! Daddy! 개인적!
4. Prayer is not a ritual to relieve guilt!
o Cry Out! 열정적!
You really blew it- sinned- so you have pay for it by praying a lot
o By His Spirit A PARTNERSHIP
Jesus specifically told us to NOT repeat the same thing over & over
3. I look INWARD to JESUS LIVING INSIDE ME!
Examine yourself to see if your faith is real and growing. Test yourself. Remember that Jesus is living in you – unless you’ve failed your test.”
:7scr “When you pray DO NOT use meaningless repetition
Remember that Jesus is living in you – unless you’ve failed your test.”
thinking that you will be heard for your many words.” (NAS)
Not mindless ritual…repeating clichés...
고린도후서 13:5 NKRV
5 너희는 믿음 안에 있는가 너희 자신을 시험하고 너희 자신을 확증하라 예수 그리스도께서 너희 안에 계신 줄을 너희가 스스로 알지 못하느냐 그렇지 않으면 너희는 버림 받은 자니라
“Jesus, produce the Fruit of your Spirit in me today!”
DURING 40 DOP – demolish other misconceptions with the truth SONG

4 FOUNDATIONAL TRUTHS ABOUT PRAYER

4. I look AROUND & ASK the holy SPIRIT TO USE ME!
to help you see prayer in a different way
“ . . . Give yourself completely to God – every part of you – since you’ve been given a new life, and you want to be used as a tool in the hands of God, used for his good purposes.” (LB)
1. GOD LOVES FOR ME TO TALK WITH HIM ABOUT ANYTHING
been given a new life, and you want to be used as a tool in the hands
It doesn’t have to be a “religious” topic!
of God, used for his good purposes.” (LB)
로마서 6:13 NKRV
13 또한 너희 지체를 불의의 무기로 죄에게 내주지 말고 오직 너희 자신을 죽은 자 가운데서 다시 살아난 자 같이 하나님께 드리며 너희 지체를 의의 무기로 하나님께 드리라
5. I look FORWARD TO MY FUTuRE IN FAITH!
If YOU are interested in something- God is too!
“I am confident of this, that God who began a good work in you will continue to complete it until it is finished on the day of Christ Jesus.”
Why is God interested in anything you’re interested in?
1. He loves you! When you love someone...
continue to complete it until it is finished on the day of Christ Jesus.”
2. He gave you those interests! shaped you
빌립보서 1:6 NKRV
6 너희 안에서 착한 일을 시작하신 이가 그리스도 예수의 날까지 이루실 줄을 우리는 확신하노라
WHAT WE REMEMBER IN COMMUNION
3. He enjoys talking with his children!
“The Lord is like a father to his children, tender and compassionate to those who reverence him.” (NLT)
“DO THIS TO REMEMBER ME!” - JESUS

COMMUNION REMINDS US TO CHECK OUR HEARTS

Babies are deeply loved even before they can talk
But parents long for the day they can have a conversation
“If anyone eats this bread or drinks this cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner, that person is guilty of sinning against the Body and the Blood of the Lord. This is why you should examine yourself before eating the bread and drinking from the cup. For if you eat the bread or drink the cup without recognizing (committing to) the Body of Christ, you are eating and drinking God's judgment upon yourself. That is why many of you are weak and sick and some have even died! BUT IF we examine and judge ourselves, we will not be judged by God.”
고린도전서 11:27–31 NKRV
27 그러므로 누구든지 주의 떡이나 잔을 합당하지 않게 먹고 마시는 자는 주의 몸과 피에 대하여 죄를 짓는 것이니라 28 사람이 자기를 살피고 그 후에야 이 떡을 먹고 이 잔을 마실지니 29 주의 몸을 분별하지 못하고 먹고 마시는 자는 자기의 죄를 먹고 마시는 것이니라 30 그러므로 너희 중에 약한 자와 병든 자가 많고 잠자는 자도 적지 아니하니 31 우리가 우리를 살폈으면 판단을 받지 아니하려니와
Memorize -23
1. God love YOU deeply even if you can’t or don’t talk to him.
시편 139:23 NKRV
23 하나님이여 나를 살피사 내 마음을 아시며 나를 시험하사 내 뜻을 아옵소서

COMMUNION REMINDS US OF 5 TRANSFORMING TRUTHS

But he wants you to GROW UP: Means learning how to talk to him!
2. Learning to pray is like learning any other language.
1. _____________________________________________________ “For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, ‘This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me.’ In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, ‘This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me.’" (NIV)
(NIV)
You listen & practice & get better…Words become sentences!
고린도전서 11:23–25 NKRV
23 내가 너희에게 전한 것은 주께 받은 것이니 곧 주 예수께서 잡히시던 밤에 떡을 가지사 24 축사하시고 떼어 이르시되 이것은 너희를 위하는 내 몸이니 이것을 행하여 나를 기념하라 하시고 25 식후에 또한 그와 같이 잔을 가지시고 이르시되 이 잔은 내 피로 세운 새 언약이니 이것을 행하여 마실 때마다 나를 기념하라 하셨으니
Q: When (time, day, or situation) am I most likely to forget how much my Heavenly Father loves me?
Q: Did your first sentences make sense?

Q: What sin(s) do I habitually fall for when I forget God’s love for me?

3. There is nothing off-limits in talking to God.
“We can be confident in approaching God, knowing that he listens to us whenever we ask him for anything according to his will. And since we know that he hears us when we make our requests, then we can be sure that he will answer us.”
2. ____________________________________________________ “I hear that there are divisions among you when you MEET AS A CHURCH! (so)...When you COME TOGETHER, it is NOT the Lord's Supper you eat, for as you eat it, each of you goes ahead without waiting for anybody else! One member goes hungry among you while another gets drunk!” ,
고린도전서 11:18 NKRV
18 먼저 너희가 교회에 모일 때에 너희 중에 분쟁이 있다 함을 듣고 어느 정도 믿거니와
고린도전서 11:20–21 NKRV
20 그런즉 너희가 함께 모여서 주의 만찬을 먹을 수 없으니 21 이는 먹을 때에 각각 자기의 만찬을 먼저 갖다 먹으므로 어떤 사람은 시장하고 어떤 사람은 취함이라

Q: What issue (or issues) have I made more important than being in harmony and unity with my brothers & sisters in God’s Family?

Pray w no fear.. shame...hesitation – God LOVES it when you talk w Him
PRAYER IS: a conversation, not a ceremony NOT monologue,
talk & listen

쉬지 말고 기도하라. HOW TO PRAY THROUGHOUT YOUR DAY

a relationship, not a ritual

기도 – Part 5

“Pray in the Spirit at all times with all kinds of prayers, asking for everything you need. To do this you must always be ready and never give up. And always pray for all God's people.” (NCV)
If prayer is boring to you- you misunderstand the point of it.!
and you are talking about the wrong things!
asking for everything you need. To do this you must always be ready
It’s not a duty... it’s a privilege! enjoyed /not endured
and never give up. And always pray for all God's people.”
(NCV)
People often miss the verse after
에베소서 6:18 NKRV
18 모든 기도와 간구를 하되 항상 성령 안에서 기도하고 이를 위하여 깨어 구하기를 항상 힘쓰며 여러 성도를 위하여 구하라
BY DEVELOPING 2 HABITS
“I have good plans for you, not plans to hurt you. I will give you hope and a good future. Then you will call my name. You will come to me and pray to me, and I will listen to you.” (NCV)
1. KEEP A RUNNING CONVERSATION WITH GOD.
And he’s interested in everything you are interested in because he loves you
“Pray on every occasion, as the Spirit leads.” (TEV)
2. GOD LISTENS TO PRAYERS THAT ARE SINCERE & SIMPLE
에베소서 6:18 NKRV
18 모든 기도와 간구를 하되 항상 성령 안에서 기도하고 이를 위하여 깨어 구하기를 항상 힘쓰며 여러 성도를 위하여 구하라
“Never stop praying! (Pray all the time!)” (GW)
You don’t have to use flowery words or fancy phrases.
데살로니가전서 5:17 NKRV
17 쉬지 말고 기도하라
It just has to come from your heart. Authentic. Real. Honest
2. SCHEDULE PRAYERTIMES THROUGHOUT MY DAY.
NOT what you think you ought to say
Seven times a day I praise you!” (NIV)
시편 119:164 NKRV
164 주의 의로운 규례들로 말미암아 내가 하루 일곱 번씩 주를 찬양하나이다

A DAILY SCHEDULE BUILT ON THE LORD’S PRAYER

o Ever hear people pray one request but embellish it 9 different ways
1. 감사와 함께 일어나라. (하루를 감사로 시작하라. THANKSGIVING)
because longer seems stronger? “Land the plane!”
“When you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. I tell you the truth, they’ve received their reward in full. Instead, when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. And when you pray, do not keep babbling on and on like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.” (NIV)
Jesus said, “ . . . Your Father knows what you need before you ask him. So then, this is how you should pray: 'Our Father in heaven’ . . .”
Summarize - Don’t use prayer to show off. To impress
마태복음 6:8–9 NKRV
8 그러므로 그들을 본받지 말라 구하기 전에 너희에게 있어야 할 것을 하나님 너희 아버지께서 아시느니라 9 그러므로 너희는 이렇게 기도하라 하늘에 계신 우리 아버지여 이름이 거룩히 여김을 받으시오며
- Be sincere. Don’t just spout clichés!
Every good gift and every perfect present comes from your Father of light in heaven . . .”
in heaven . . .”
- Keep it simple. Adding words doesn’t make it stronger
야고보서 1:17 NKRV
17 온갖 좋은 은사와 온전한 선물이 다 위로부터 빛들의 아버지께로부터 내려오나니 그는 변함도 없으시고 회전하는 그림자도 없으시니라
• I thank my Father in heaven for his consistent love & I recall all of the ways that He is good to me
- Stay humble or you’ll stumble
We’ll come back to this during 40DOP but the bottom line is
all of the ways that He is good to me
2. 아침식탁에서 하나님을 이름을 찬양하라. (PRAISE)
“Let us come near to God with a sincere heart and a sure faith
3. GOD LIKES TO SHOW HIS GRACE BY ANSWERING PRAYER
“Hallowed be your name . . .”
마태복음 6:9b NKRV
9 그러므로 너희는 이렇게 기도하라 하늘에 계신 우리 아버지여 이름이 거룩히 여김을 받으시오며
With every answer, God shows he is a good, good Father
Every day I will bless your name, and praise it forever and ever!”
... even when the answer is NO or NOT YET!
시편 145:2 NKRV
2 내가 날마다 주를 송축하며 영원히 주의 이름을 송축하리이다
• I review God’s names & the promises they imply
Q: Does a loving parent give a child everything they ask for? No!
Many good reasons: Protection, Correction. Direction not spoil
God, you didn’t answer me!” “Yes I did! My answer was no!”
GOD SAYS “I AM . . .”
Always 4 possible answers: Yes, No, Wait, & Are you kidding!
Abba Your Loving Father!
Call to me and I will answer you. I will show you marvelous and wondrous things that you could never figure out on your own.” (Mes)
El Deah Your God Who Knows Everything!
Sometimes the answer is a bigger perspective. I now see...
Jehovah Rapha Your God who Heals you!
El Shaddai God Almighty – with all the Power you need!
“If you, being imperfect and sinful parents know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give good gifts to those who ask him?” (NLT)
“You do not have, because you do not ask God.” (NIV)
A huge truth...
“Those who know your name trust in you, for you, Lord, have never abandoned those who truly seek you.”
abandoned those who truly seek you.”
4. GOD LONGS TO BE CLOSE TO ME!
시편 9:10 NKRV
10 여호와여 주의 이름을 아는 자는 주를 의지하오리니 이는 주를 찾는 자들을 버리지 아니하심이니이다
3. 아침 나절에, 가장 중요한 것이 무엇인지 기억하라. (DEDICATION)
If you’re away from someone you love for a long time - can’t wait to talk
“May your kingdom come, and may your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.”
God is waiting for you to talk to him. Not busy. Longing, A privilege!

God designed you for a relationship

He made you to love you
4. 점심식사 때, 나의 필요를 기도하라. (PETITION)
“Give us today our daily bread.”
He created you for his companionship
마태복음 6:11 NKRV
11 오늘 우리에게 일용할 양식을 주시옵고
· I ask for anything I need.
He chose you to be his child!
The Bible is full of examples: It tells us that Noah, Job, Enoch, Hezekiah
“You can ask for anything in my name” – Jesus (NLT)
(NLT)
and many others all had “a close relationship” with God
요한복음 14:13 NKRV
13 너희가 내 이름으로 무엇을 구하든지 내가 행하리니 이는 아버지로 하여금 아들로 말미암아 영광을 받으시게 하려 함이라
“I don't want your sacrifices--I want your love! I don't want your offerings, I want you to know me!” (LB)
· I ask for what other people need too. (중보기도)
“I’d be sinning against the Lord if I failed to pray for you.”
Feel the passion? The longing God has for you?
One of the most amazing verses in Bible is screen
사무엘상 12:23 NKRV
23 나는 너희를 위하여 기도하기를 쉬는 죄를 여호와 앞에 결단코 범하지 아니하고 선하고 의로운 길을 너희에게 가르칠 것인즉
“Jesus has the power of God, by which he gives us everything we need to live, and to serve God. We have these things because we know him.” (NCV)

치유와 회복을 위한 기도 HOW TO PRAY FOR HEALING AND RESTORATION

기도 – Part 6

o I’ve never met anyone who thought they were outstanding at prayer.
“IF my people who are called by my name will humble themselves
No PhDs in prayer. Everybody knows they could be better at it.
and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways,

THEN I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sins, and
scr “We don't even know what we should pray for,
I will heal their land.” (NLT)
nor how we should pray...” (NLT)

Why I titled this intro to 40 DOPr “A Beginner’s Guide...
HUMILITY: How can I develop & show it?

WHO DO YOU THINK YOU’RE TALKING TO?

40 Days of Prayer – Week 3

This wk we launch 1000s of small groups to study 40 Days of Prayer
Irritate – people who don’t identify themselves when they call.
They just start talking & assume you know...
UNTIL YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE TALKING TO YOU DON’T KNOW:...
What to talk about (what content is appropriate
What tone of voice to use.
What words are appropriate
How to address them properly (pope/pizza guy)
In a store: can always tell if someone is part of SB
“Hey Pastor Rick!” - “Hello REV. Warren” you talkin to me?
What you know about someone determines how you talk to them
SAME WAY Your understanding of what God is really like
shapes everything else in your life, including how you pray!
Nothing influences your life more than how you view God!
CARD 1 Misconceptions
So what is God really like? God has many characteristics
Omniscient...Omnipotent...Just... Loving... Kind...Unchanging...Holy...
Today: just look at GOD’S GOODNESS
aloud)
“The Lord is always good. He is always loving and kind, and his faithfulness goes on and on to each succeeding generation.”
The reason there is good in the world – Good Creator
God is the source of all Good in the World.
Can’t spell Good w/o God
The reason... evil.. God doesn’t force us to do good!
IF God is not a good God ...zero reason to pray!
BUT BECAUSE GOD IS ALWAYS GOOD...
we know 4 implications- that affect how we talk to him
1std because God is always good
1. GOD’S PLANS FOR MY LIFE WILL ALWAYS BE GOOD
Is there anything God can’t do? Yes! Do evil! Can’t deny his character.
“‘I know what I’ve planned for you,’ says the Lord. ‘I have good plans for you, not plans to hurt you! My plans will give you hope and a good future. And when you call to me and pray to me, I will listen to you!” (NCV) see the connection w prayer?
- You are not an accident! A purpose for your life!
- God put a lot of thought into creating your life
- God’s plans for me are revealed & realized through prayer!
God didn’t have to create a plan for your life!
Could’ve left it all chance, but he didn’t. Why? Because he’s Good!
screen God, your goodness is so great! You have stored up great blessings for those who honor you. You do so much for those who come to you for protection, Blessing them before the watching world!” (NLT) “stored up” indicates intention and thoughtfulness
I want you to experience those blessings - why 40 DOP
“BUT RICK - not everything in my life is good!”
God did not promise that!
Broken planet... We make bad choices
But God is even greater than your choices!
“We know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose.” (NLT) The more you pray, the better you know your purpose
The better you know your purpose -more God can use everything for good.
.... Even your hurts from the sins of others! Joseph’s 11 brothers
Joseph: “Your plan was to hurt me, but God turned your evil plan into a GOOD plan to save the lives of many people!”
(this is redemptive suffering)
The more you trust the goodness of God-the happier you’ll be:
“So, we can rejoice when we run into problems and trials,
for we know that they are GOOD for us—they help us learn patient endurance.” On earth, God is more interested in your character-comfort
SCREEN: Everything God does in my life, he does for my good.
You cannot say that about anybody else
2nd because God is always good
2. GOD ALWAYS GIVES ME WHAT I NEED, NOT WHAT I DESERVE
If we all got what we deserved none of us would be here
+12 “He has not treated us as we deserve for our sins or paid us back for our wrongs....(In his goodness), he has taken our sins away and removed them as far as the east is from the west!”
ILL: When David committed murder and adultery-did he deserve mercy? NO
but he knew God is good, so here’s what he prayed...
“God, in your goodness, have mercy on me ... Wash away all my guilt; and make me clean again. From my sin cleanse me. “NAB)
Noe:God forgives you not because you’re good, but because he is!
But God does more than forgive us when we sin, he welcomes us back!
. He doesn’t reject us. He receives us.
Secret: One of your greatest fears is the fear of rejection
- We do everything possible to avoid it.
- Why you try to cover up all the bad parts in your life.
But because God is good, he will NEVER reject you, No Fear!
“Even if my father and mother abandon me, the Lord will hold me close... my enemies are waiting for me to fall... Yet I remain confident that I’ll see the goodness of the Lord while I’m living here in the world.” (NLT) He’s the God of second chances
Because God is good & gracious, we’re bold & confident in prayer
“(Jesus) understands our weaknesses, for he faced all of the same temptations we do, yet he did not sin. So let us come boldly with confidence to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find the grace to help us when we need it.” (NLT)
3rd because God is always good
3. GOD PUT MY GOOD ABOVE HIS OWN GOOD
This is the heart of the gospel. The king sacrifices his life for peasants!
The ultimate expression of love! The shepherd dies for the sheep!
"I am the GOOD shepherd; I know my own sheep, and they know me ...And I will sacrifice my life for my sheep.” really?
screen “The greatest love you can have is to give your life
for others.” (TEV) The Cross = ultimate picture of God’s goodness!
No one else has ever offered to pay for your sin! Love in 1st Degree!
But Jesus didn’t just die for you. He imputed his goodness inside you!
:21scr “God took the sinless Christ and poured into him our sins. Then, in exchange, he poured God's goodness into us! (LB)
The Great Exchange! “Let’s Make a Deal” gameshow
“Jesus died for our sins and rose again to make us right with God, filling us with God's goodness.” (LB) Heaven!
This is amazing! But what does it have to do with prayer? EVERYTHING!
“Since God did not spare even his own Son but gave Christ up for us all, won't he now also give us everything else we need?” (NLT) See the logic? small potatoes
SONG: GOOD, GOOD FATHER
`
Now this 4th truth is the hard one: because God is always good...
4. HE DOES NOT SAY YES TO EVERY REQUEST!
No loving parent gives a child everything they ask for
4 Answers: request wrong NO... timing SLOW... you GROW. GO!
"You fathers—if your children asked for a fish to each, would you give them a snake instead? Or if they asked for an egg, would you give them a scorpion? Of course not! So if you, as sinful people, know how to give GOOD gifts to your children, how much more will your Heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!"
Point: God will never give you anything hurtful or bad for you
James& John Mother “Can my sons sit... on either side in heaven?
Jesus replied "You don't realize what you are asking for!”
Limited perspective. Don’t see the whole picture.
Reality: It’s easy to trust God’s goodness when things are going good
The Test: when everything seems to be bad in your life.
- When things don’t work out the way you planned
- When my wife got breast cancer the month we launched PEACE
- When the prayer I’ve prayed every day 45 yrs- yet to be answered
- When my youngest son lost his lifelong battle with mental illness
Will you say in FAITH like Job “You give... My heart will choose to say...
You know a lot of times what you pray for doesn’t happen!
On Wed of this wk I got a terrible stomach pain lasted several hours
I cried out to God and asked him to take it away.
You know what? He didn’t take it away
I was in pain for several hours before it subsided
Now what did that tell me about prayer?
That prayer doesn’t work? No!
That God isn’t good? No!
That I should give up prayer because I don’t get everything I ask for?
NO. God is not a vending machine, or a genie or a magic wand.
Prayer is not a painkiller that removes all the pain in my life.
Nowhere in the Bible ....
has God promised a pain-free life!
has God said prayer will make every moment of your life easy!
It just doesn’t say that,
So should I give up praying? No!
My job is to keep praying & trust God with the answer
because I KNOW that everything he does in my life is for my good
I ACCEPT a NO, SLOW, GROW, or GO answer
Because I know that God is a Good Good Father
even when I’m in pain.
Q: iF a doctor does a surgery that saves your life
and that surgery or recovery causes you pain...
DO YOU SAY THAT DOCTOR WAS A BAD DOCTOR ?
When God didn’t immediately end my pain
- He was just saying “MY GRACE IS ENOUGH FOR YOU!
“I know you can handle this!”.
I’ve learned nothing from pleasure.
Almost everything I’ve learned in life I learned from pain,
If you never had any pain or difficulty in your life
how strong the mature would you be?
EVERYTHING GOD DOES IS FOR YOUR GOOD!
God says, “My thoughts are completely different from yours, and my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine. For just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.” (NLT)
FINALLTY, because God is always good
5. HE INVITES US TO LIVE WITH HIM FOREVER
God wants to show his goodness to you not just while you’re here on
earth – but for all of eternity! WOW!
“Our Lord Jesus Christ, and God our Father who loves us, has given us by his grace an everlasting encouragement and a good hope that will last forever, May this encourage your heart and give you strength for every good thing you do and say!”
Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, then I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever!” (NIV)
Until you are absolutely convinced that God is always good to you,
your prayer will be powerless, passionless, and pointless
What do you want to see God do in your life in the next 40 Days
CLOSE:
Satan is not afraid of your plans.
Satan is not afraid of your programs
But he is afraid of your prayers
Because anytime God wants to do something great in your life,
in your family, in your church, in your career,
or in your nation he begins by moving you to pray.
Our nation needs spiritual reawakening, a renewal, a spiritual revival
It won’t happen through politics or petitions
Things happen when a group of people commit to pray together!
PRAY THIS WEEK
+40 “Lord, keep me from paying attention to what is worthless. (Instead) let me live by your Word... I want to obey to your principles. Please renew my life with your goodness!”
“Bring us back to you, God; we're ready to come back.
Give us a fresh start.” (Mes)
PRAY Revive My Heart.... My Small Group ... Our Church Family

(NLT)

1. God is a multidimensional God

이사야 66:2 NKRV
2 나 여호와가 말하노라 내 손이 이 모든 것을 지었으므로 그들이 생겼느니라 무릇 마음이 가난하고 심령에 통회하며 내 말을 듣고 떠는 자 그 사람은 내가 돌보려니와
o We SEE IT in GOD’S creation
· IF I’M HUMBLE, God will give me the power to change.
“God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.”
“Since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen (in) what has been made, so that men are without excuse.” (NIV)
“Can you fathom the limits and bounds of the greatness and power of God? The sky is no limit for God, but it lies beyond your reach! God knows the world of the dead, but you do not know it. God's greatness is broader than the earth, and wider than the sea.” (TEV)
야고보서 4:6 NKRV
6 그러나 더욱 큰 은혜를 주시나니 그러므로 일렀으되 하나님이 교만한 자를 물리치시고 겸손한 자에게 은혜를 주신다 하였느니라

14 내 이름으로 일컫는 내 백성이 그들의 악한 길에서 떠나 스스로 낮추고 기도하여 내 얼굴을 찾으면 내가 하늘에서 듣고 그들의 죄를 사하고 그들의 땅을 고칠지라
Jesus: “. . . I tell you the truth, my Father will give you anything you ask for in my name. Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you’ll receive, so that your joy will be the fullest possible joy.” (NCV)
“Grace & peace to you from Him who is, and who was, and
(NCV)
who is to come!” That about includes everything! Multidimensional!
요한복음 16:23–24 NKRV
23 그 날에는 너희가 아무 것도 내게 묻지 아니하리라 내가 진실로 진실로 너희에게 이르노니 너희가 무엇이든지 아버지께 구하는 것을 내 이름으로 주시리라 24 지금까지는 너희가 내 이름으로 아무 것도 구하지 아니하였으나 구하라 그리하면 받으리니 너희 기쁨이 충만하리라
o We SEE IT IN HOW THE HOLY SPIRIT MOVES.
“Is any one of you in trouble? He should pray. Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise. Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven.” (NIV)
(NIV)
“The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you don't know where the wind comes from or where it's going. That's the way it is with everyone born of the Holy Spirit." (GW)
야고보서 5:13–15 NKRV
13 너희 중에 고난 당하는 자가 있느냐 그는 기도할 것이요 즐거워하는 자가 있느냐 그는 찬송할지니라 14 너희 중에 병든 자가 있느냐 그는 교회의 장로들을 청할 것이요 그들은 주의 이름으로 기름을 바르며 그를 위하여 기도할지니라 15 믿음의 기도는 병든 자를 구원하리니 주께서 그를 일으키시리라 혹시 죄를 범하였을지라도 사하심을 받으리라
“He does wonders that cannot be understood; he does so many miracles they cannot be counted. When he passes me, I can’t see him; and when he goes by me, I don’t recognize him!”
“Pray in the Spirit at ALL times with ALL kinds of prayers, asking for ALL you need. To do this you must ALWAYS be ready and never give up! ALWAYS pray for ALL God's people.” (NCV)

2. BECAUSE God is multidimensional I’m NEVER ALONE

ALL you need. To do this you must ALWAYS be ready and never give
“Where could I go to escape from you? Where could I ever get away from your presence? If I went up to heaven, you’d be there; if I lay down in the world of the dead, you’d be there. If I flew way beyond the east or lived in the farthest place in the west, you’d be there to lead me. You’d be there to help me. I could ask the dark-ness to hide me -but even darkness is not dark for you, and the night is as bright as the day. Darkness and light are the same to you.”(TEV)
up! ALWAYS pray for ALL God's people.” (NCV)
에베소서 6:18 NKRV
18 모든 기도와 간구를 하되 항상 성령 안에서 기도하고 이를 위하여 깨어 구하기를 항상 힘쓰며 여러 성도를 위하여 구하라

Seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these other things will be given to you as well.”

things will be given to you as well.”

4. TURN MY ATTENTION FROM THE WORLD TO THE WORD.
Music helps me feel the importance of the cross
Create a playlist, not just a prayer list
“If my people . . . turn from their wicked ways . . .”
THINK: Right now all of your sins are in the past -but so is the Cross!

3 OF THE MANY REASONS GOD sayS ‘No’

MEMORIZE THIS!
CAUTION: Use these to comfort yourself, but NEVER use them with someone in pain, because you don’t know why God said no to them.
What you think God is like determines how you pray
If you think God is an uninterested Creator
someone in pain, because you don’t know why God said no to them.
1. GOD SAYS ‘NO’ WHEN He has A BIGGER PERSPECTIVE.
unpleasable Deity ... untouchable Stranger
EASY to tell what people think of God; Just listen to them pray!
He knows about everyone everywhere. Everything about us is bare and wide open to the all-seeing eyes of our living God; nothing can be hidden from Him . . .” (LB)

잠언 2:8 NKRV
8 대저 그는 정의의 길을 보호하시며 그의 성도들의 길을 보전하려 하심이니라
2. GOD SAYS ‘NO’ WHEN HE HAS A BETTER PLAN.
GOD WANTS MY PRAYERS TO BE...
1. PERSONAL! Abba! Daddy! baby term! the most intimate
God: “This plan of mine is not what you would work out, neither are My thoughts the same as yours! For My ways are higher than yours.”

8 이는 내 생각이 너희의 생각과 다르며 내 길은 너희의 길과 다름이니라 여호와의 말씀이니라 9 이는 하늘이 땅보다 높음 같이 내 길은 너희의 길보다 높으며 내 생각은 너희의 생각보다 높음이니라

God has all of eternity_to fulfill his promises.
All misunderstanding of prayer is a misunderstanding of God!
3. GOD SAYS ‘NO’ WHEN HE HAS A GREATER PURPOSE.
Homework: Start every prayer this week with “Daddy”

Children cry out & they don’t care where or who’s listening!
(GW)
Put some feeling in your prayers! “I’ve got to have this!”
베드로전서 1:7 NKRV
7 너희 믿음의 확실함은 불로 연단하여도 없어질 금보다 더 귀하여 예수 그리스도께서 나타나실 때에 칭찬과 영광과 존귀를 얻게 할 것이니라
“These present troubles are quite small and won't last very long. Yet they will produce in us an immeasurably great glory that will last forever! So, we don't look at the troubles we can see right now; rather, we look forward to what we have not yet seen. For the troubles we see will soon be over, but the joys to come will last forever.”
This is not a meeting with your tax preparer!
So, we don't look at the troubles we can see right now; rather, we look forward to what we have not yet seen. For the troubles we see will soon
3. A PARTNERSHIP! “By His Spirit”
Did you know that when you pray, the Holy Spirit prays with you?

(NLT)
screen “Also, the Holy Spirit helps us with our weak-ness. We often do not know how to pray as we should. BUT the Spirit himself speaks to God for us, even begs God on our behalf with deep groanings and feelings that words cannot express!
고린도후서 4:17–18 NKRV
17 우리가 잠시 받는 환난의 경한 것이 지극히 크고 영원한 영광의 중한 것을 우리에게 이루게 함이니 18 우리가 주목하는 것은 보이는 것이 아니요 보이지 않는 것이니 보이는 것은 잠깐이요 보이지 않는 것은 영원함이라
Note: Your loving Father understands...

5 바람의 길이 어떠함과 아이 밴 자의 태에서 뼈가 어떻게 자라는지를 네가 알지 못함 같이 만사를 성취하시는 하나님의 일을 네가 알지 못하느니라
Q: Ever carry on a conversation w self while someone’s talking to you?

하나님의 ‘NO’에 나는 어떻게 해야 하는가?

All the time! Your H. Father does too!
1. TRUST THAT God DOES EVERYTHING IN GOODNESS & LOVE
ILL: As a dad- when my kids... Patio On patio- listening & praying for you
“All the ways of the Lord are loving . . .” (NIV)

로마서 8:28 NKRV
28 우리가 알거니와 하나님을 사랑하는 자 곧 그의 뜻대로 부르심을 입은 자들에게는 모든 것이 합력하여 선을 이루느니라
I don’t have to understand God’s answer to know that it is motivated by love.
3rd I look INWARD to JESUS LIVING INSIDE ME!
Remember, Jesus isn’t just in heaven! He’s as close as you!
to know that it is motivated by love.
2. WHEN IN PAIN, pray WHAT jesus prayeD FACING THE CROSS.
Remember: God is Trinity. So shock: Saved.... Trinity in you!
“Going a little farther, Jesus fell to the ground praying that, if possible, he might not have to suffer what was ahead of him. Jesus prayed “Abba! My Father! All things are possible for you! Please take this cup of suffering away from me! Yet I want your will, not mine, to be done!”
마가복음 14:35–36 NKRV
35 조금 나아가사 땅에 엎드리어 될 수 있는 대로 이 때가 자기에게서 지나가기를 구하여 36 이르시되 아빠 아버지여 아버지께는 모든 것이 가능하오니 이 잔을 내게서 옮기시옵소서 그러나 나의 원대로 마시옵고 아버지의 원대로 하옵소서 하시고
Write: ALL 3 IN ME! That’s personal!

기도의 바른 방법 The Right Way to Pray

· AFFIRM GOD’S POWER! “Father, I know you can do anything!”
Then, since I know I’m unconditionally accepted by my H Father
“Father, I know you can do anything!”
it gives me the freedom & courage to honestly face my faults.
Examine yourself to see if your faith is real and growing. Test yourself. Remember that Jesus is living in you – unless you’ve failed your test.”
· ASK WITH PASSION! “Father, please give me what I ask!”
Would anyone here like to be better than you are?
“Father, please give me what I ask!”
· ACCEPT GOD’S PLAN! “However, what I want most is your will!”
fact: I can’t GET BETTER until I FACE what needs to changed!
“However, what I want most is your will!”
“If you try to hide your sins, you will never succeed. But if you humbly confess and reject them, you will receive mercy.”
3. EXPECT God to give his grace to handle his answer.
LB: “You get another chance”
(Paul) “Three times I prayed to the Lord about this and asked him to take it away. But his answer was: “My grace is all you need, for my power is greatest when you are weak.” So, I gladly boast about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power can flow through me! . . . For when I am weak, then I am strong!”
Secret: God already knows what you need to work on.
But when you start being honest to God-
take it away. But his answer was: “My grace is all you need, for my power is greatest when you are weak.” So, I gladly boast about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power can flow through me! . . . For when I am weak, then I am strong!”
is greatest when you are weak.” So, I gladly boast about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power can flow through me! . . . For when I am weak, then I am strong!”
it takes you to a new level of intimacy.
고린도후서 12:8–10 NKRV
8 이것이 내게서 떠나가게 하기 위하여 내가 세 번 주께 간구하였더니 9 나에게 이르시기를 내 은혜가 네게 족하도다 이는 내 능력이 약한 데서 온전하여짐이라 하신지라 그러므로 도리어 크게 기뻐함으로 나의 여러 약한 것들에 대하여 자랑하리니 이는 그리스도의 능력이 내게 머물게 하려 함이라 10 그러므로 내가 그리스도를 위하여 약한 것들과 능욕과 궁핍과 박해와 곤고를 기뻐하노니 이는 내가 약한 그 때에 강함이라
“Those who know you, Lord, will trust you! You do not abandon anyone who comes to you!” (TEV)
Everyone wants intimacy in a relationship-
but they don’t want the honesty required. You must be willing to open up!
시편 9:10 NKRV
10 여호와여 주의 이름을 아는 자는 주를 의지하오리니 이는 주를 찾는 자들을 버리지 아니하심이니이다
You invite God into (what you think) are your “secret areas”
You spell Intimacy (screen) “INTO ME SEE
Where start? Use 9 Fruit of the Spirit as a checklist.
(picture of Jesus) Pray “Jesus, produce some Fruit in me today!”
Backward- Cross, Upward-Father’s Face Inward - Jesus in me
4. I look AROUND & ASK the holy SPIRIT TO USE ME!
Instead of criticizing...complaining…judging ...whining... blogging
Offer yourself to be a solution! “USE ME!”
“...Give yourself completely to God--every part of you-- since you’ve been given a new life, and you want to be used as a tool in the hands of God, used for his good purposes.” (LB)
The World is waiting for your contribution! needs your help! h
The best launchpad- your church family! Retake Class 301
Finally (5th dimension)
5. I look FORWARD TO MY FUTuRE IN FAITH!
Now you talk to your Father about the day ahead of you.
Father.... What should I prioritize on my list?
What decision should I make?
Who should I contact that could help me out?
What should I say at that meeting?
BOOKS say: Enlist a “Mastermind Counsel to coach your life.
I recommend the Trinity! How do they coach?
A foolproof manual with all the answers! BIBLE!
o The more you get in this Book, the more confident you’ll be.
BESIDE: Ultimately - as God’s child- your Father guarantees…win!
PH. 1:6 “I am confident of this, that God who began a good work
in you will continue to complete it until the day of Christ Jesus.”
God doesn’t sponsor flops!
Now THIS is just another way to freshen up your prayer life.
Try it this week. We’re going to practice right now in communion
Jesus gave us a tool to remember these dimensions:
Called The Lord’s Supper, Communion, Eucharist
We’re going to take it together now
o Take out the Communion Guide in your program
I’ve prepared it to help you understand the significance of..
What is the purpose of Communion?
When Jesus transformed the Passover into the Lord’s Supper
he announced the reason twice: “Do this to remember me!”
- It is a reminder, a memory tool
- He doesn’t want you to ever forget....
What specifically are we to remember? In
Paul explains that communion remind us of some very important truths!
But even before we take it, we first have some heart-prep to do
FIRST, COMMUNION REMINDS US TO CHECK OUR HEARTS
This is the 3rd Dimension of prayer that we just talked about
1 COR, 11: 27-31 “If anyone eats this bread or drinks this cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner, that person is guilty of sinning against the Body and the Blood of the Lord. This is why you should examine yourself before eating the bread and drinking from the cup. For if you eat the bread or drink the cup without recognizing (committing to) the Body of Christ, you are eating and drinking God's judgment upon yourself. That is why many of you are weak and sick and some have even died! BUT IF we examine and judge ourselves, we will not be judged by God.” Only for those who have accepted Christ
TIP: Memorize -23 screen “Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.
LET’S DO THIS RIGHT NOW (BOW)
COMMUNION REMINDS US OF 5 TRANSFORMING TRUTHS
write these down
1. NO ONE LOVES US MORE THAN OUR FATHER IN HEAVEN!
“For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, "This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me." In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me."
Q: When (time, day, or situation) am I most likely to forget how much my Heavenly Father loves me?
Q: What sin(s) do I habitually fall for when I forget God’s love for me?
2nd great truth...
2. WE BELONG TO EACH OTHER IN GOD’S FAMILY!
In Corinth Church 3 big problems -ruining the Lord’s Supper:
1st Members in this church had unresolved conflict with each other
They were disagreeing, taking sides, and even fighting each other!
2nd They were acting like the Lord’s Supper was for individuals!
It’s not! It’s for the Church. The Body. Communion
SHOCK: Not a single time in the Bible does anyone take communion by
themselves. It misses the whole point of “communion”!
You are part of a body!
3rd They were oblivious to the needs of other people right in their own family
They were putting their own needs ahead of everyone else
Paul confronted them on all 3 issues:
, “I hear that there are divisions among you when you meet as a church! (so)...When you come together, it is NOT the Lord's Supper you eat, for as you eat it, each of you goes ahead without waiting for anybody else! One member goes hungry among you while another gets drunk!”
Q: What issue (or issues) have I made more important than being in harmony and unity with my brothers & sisters in God’s Family?
Q: Would God be pleased with where my first loyalty has been?
“So, dear brothers and sisters, when you gather for the Lord's Supper wait for each other.”
Larger Principle: The Church should be the one place where we put each other’s needs ahead of our own.
You don’ really experience community until you start giving back!
Q: Can I give any example of where I’ve put the needs of my brothers
& sisters in my church family ahead of my own needs?
Q: Do I know anyone in our church in need?
3. THE SPIRIT OF JESUS LIVES INSIDE ME!
Jesus: “Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood live in me, and I live in them. The Living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father. So, whoever eats me will live because of me.” (NCV)
Q: What happens when I forget this fact?
4. THIS LIFE IS NOT THE END OF THE STORY!
Jesus: “Unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you cannot have eternal life within you. BUT those who eat my flesh and drink my blood have eternal life, and I will raise them at the last day.” (NLT)
Q: Am I using my time and money as if all that matters is this life?
Am I investing anything in the next life where I will spend eternity? What would change if I kept reminding myself to ask “How long will this last?”
5. JESUS IS COMING BACK ONE DAY TO JUDGE & REWARD
“For every time you eat this bread and drink this cup, you are announcing the Lord's death until he comes again!
Lead people to Jesus
PRAY: Ask Ushers to come
