Text: Hebrews 4:16

Scripture Reading: Hebrews 4:14-16

Introduction: Have you ever needed the help of another person as you faced the opportunities and responsibilities of life?        

    I.     The practice of bold praying.

                - Let us avoid the bold prayer like that of the proud Pharisee (Luke 18:9-12).

                - Let us avoid the bold praying of the hypocrite (Matthew 6:1-2,5).

                - Let us avoid the prayers like the pagans (Matthew 6:7-8).

    II.     The basis of bold in praying.

                - We need to communicate with God.

                - We need the encouragement of faith.

                - We need the leadership of the Holy Sprit.

    III.     The need for boldness in prayer.

                - We stand in need of God’s mercy and grace.

                - We need God’s forgiveness.

                - We need power over the evil one.

                - We must pray for our families, our church, and our government.

 

As Christians, we have the privilege and responsibly of prayer!
