Waving the Wrong White Flag
"Prayer is our most formidable weapon, the thing which makes all else we do efficient." - E.M. Bounds
I've been reading a booklet titled, Praying Effectively for the Lost, by Lee E. Thomas.  The author packs many foundational biblical truths, plus…

Wonders of His Love

Posted by Rob Griepentrog on December 27, 2016 at 10:30
He rules the world with truth and grace,
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness,
And wonders of His love,
And wonders of His love,
And wonders, wonders, of His love. (Final verse of Joy to the World)…

My Problem with Prayer (as it's Performed)

Posted by Rob Griepentrog on December 27, 2016 at 10:21
2016 has been a year where I've prayed for extraordinary prayer within my life, within the Church, and also throughout the entire world.  I've been encouraged as God has shown me people and places where He's answering that prayer.  Yet, I witness many times where prayer is offered quickly, and in a perfunctory manner, that is anything but extraordinary.  In fact, I sometimes find myself deeply desiring to see a new "ordinary"…

The Bible's Built-In Prayer Guide

Posted by Rob Griepentrog on December 7, 2016 at 22:33
If you're like me, you sometimes find yourself stuck trying to think of something to pray about.  While we're surrounded by people and matters to pray about, there are just some times when the mind gets stuck, and prayer can seemingly grind to a halt.

Recently, I was preparing a prayer guide for a prayer meeting focusing on Revival in the Church.  I was reading Romans…

Raw Prayer

Posted by Rob Griepentrog on July 28, 2016 at 10:58
How polished should our prayers be when we pray to God?  It's one of many questions Christians, and many non-Christians alike, carry with them in life. 

Recently, I was reminded about how beautiful the prayer of a newborn Christian can be.  It's a prayer spoken from the heart, in their own natural vernacular (which likely isn't politically correct, and may include swear words, unrefined verbiage, poor grammar, and more linguistic faux pas).  It's a prayer that's raw,…

Waiting for the Right Time to Pray?

Posted by Rob Griepentrog on January 22, 2015 at 10:30

"Prayer is the master strategy that God gives for the defeat and rout of Satan." - Wesley L. Duewel


It's no secret that prayer is the most powerful weapon that God has given to us as Christians.  It's the one thing that Satan is powerless against!  God has provided us with a way to change the world; all while He changes us while we pray.  Yet, in our day and age, many Christians are fooled into thinking, "I'll…

From Wimpy Prayers to Bold Praying

Posted by Rob Griepentrog on September 17, 2014 at 12:11
Most weeks, I type out a note to encourage and embolden fellow Christians to pray and go deeper in their personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

This week, I offer to you a recording of Prayer Leader David Butts titled, From Wimpy Prayers to Bold Praying.  It runs around 35 minutes in duration, but I promise you that your faith will be challenged and encouraged as you listen.

If you feel "stuck" in your prayer life; like your prayers seem ineffective…

Praying with Your Feet

Posted by Rob Griepentrog on August 27, 2014 at 9:25
This past weekend, I had the privilege of prayer walking the grounds of some local schools with area residents, ministry leaders, students, and even an alumnus of the schools!  While many simply consider the concept of prayer walking (walking while praying) or praying on site, just another way that one can pray, I can tell you that people participating left excited, enthused, and invigorated!  Yes, invigorated.  That's a word I seldom, if ever, see paired with the word,…

You Can't Hurry Relationship

Posted by Rob Griepentrog on August 12, 2014 at 14:33
"Many want the Spirit's power but not the Spirit's purity. The Holy Spirit does not rent out His attributes. His power is never separated from His glorious Self." - James A. Stewart, Heaven's Throne Gift

Henry and Mel Blackaby further challenge many Christians' self-focused view of the Holy Spirit.

"Why is it that countless believers seem to stand powerless before a world desperately needing what we claim to have? Why does the…

Beyond In Case of Emergency...

Posted by Rob Griepentrog on August 5, 2014 at 14:44
Attention spans in America are at historically short levels in our day and age.  A sound bite here, a brief video, a short news clip there, a quick word of gossip during a meal, and many people can feel they're on top of the news, have a handle on life, or have all the knowledge they need to appear intelligent or knowledgeable amongst their peers.  

Our short attention spans are not impressive to God.  One of the big reasons is that those same short attention spans transfer…

    Rob,

    I trust you received the Children and Prayer Class information about Assisting a Child's Understanding of the Heart.

    Once you have had a chance to go through it and use it--I would be interested in your feed back. 

    Look forward to hearing you on our morning prayer calls.

    Blessings,

    Lewis Turner
