Prayer comes out of relationship with God. Jesus gave us a template to show us how to pray to our heavenly Father. The vital ingredient for any relationship is time. Unless we invest time in a relationship it does not grow but fades. The time we spend with the Father is never wasted.
Prayer & Fasting is a hidden secret biblical weapon to intensify our communication & intimacy with God. If you want to throw gas on the prayers that burn within you, try fasting with prayer.

Few things are as fundamental to the abundant life Jesus came to give us than our continual commitment to being grateful in all circumstances. 1 Thessalonians 1:18 and Eph. 5:20 make it abundantly clear that God requires us to always gives thanks to Him no matter what happens because He has promised to make all things work together for good for us ( Rom. 8:28)!
Life outside of gratitude is a lie. Life outside of gratitude is poison to our soul. God will help us, but we must choose to give Him thanks as Job did in his great losses. We must allow God to be somewhat mysterious and trust Him no matter what evil befalls us. That is real faith.

Church secularizationUnderstand/enter all truthThe Great Commandment, Love...franktsao4
This page will mention why the church has become secular. Let’s start with interpretation of the Great Commandment as an example to understand that doing so will lead to love of God, love of others. And how we cannot do our best in worldly, because of this error, it caused no churches obey GOD’s word, lost God’s blessings, and was assimilated by the world, and finally lost salvation.
This is the first wisdom that we need to learn if we want to have a blessed (happy) life as a Christian.
This wisdom is an introduction to the entire book of Psalms.
And if we follow this course in our life through this year and beyond, it will lead us to happiness and reward.
Isaiah 55:8-9 tells us that the distance between God and man is almost infinite, but we don’t hear this sentence in our hearts. On the contrary, we think that man can conquer heaven, and we can meet God’s requirements with our own methods . The author is also under this kind of thinking, and has tasted a lot of hardships, participated in various useless studies, and spent a lot of effort, but there is no effect at all. Today, I hope that when you study this article, you will not make the same mistakes again, and you may be able to follow God’s command. By using God's way to achieve God's desired end, you may find that there is only one smooth, blessed path.
In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…
