At salvation, the moment the Holy Spirit came to live in us, we became his temple. We became a house of prayer. Prayer should be a constant activity in our lives. The bedrock of sustenance is consistency.

Being a house of prayer requires discipline and consistency. As much as it's our life, there's a walk of consistency you must do to call out who you really are, which is a house of prayer.

Prayer is an activity carried out in reverence and consistency by man which involves verbalizing his desires, petitions and requests unto God.

God’s plan for every believer is that he grows and prayer is one of those things every believer needs to be taught in order to get it right.

This teaching answers some frequently asked questions on the concept of prayer.

The Bible instructs us to pray without ceasing. Prayer to a believer is like oxygen to man. It keeps us alive spiritually.

The Apostle Paul would not have given that instruction if he didn't believe prayer to be an effective part of your spiritual well-being because whatever you have to do non-stop has to sustain you. Therefore, we must pray always, in-season, out of season and without ceasing.

The one subject one can't claim to have mastery on is eternity. As believers, we have the assurance of eternity because we have a risen saviour. It's only someone who has died and rose again that has the right to tell us what happens after death.

This teaching answers the following

1. Is there really life after death?

2. Do we really have hope of continuing our existence after we drop this body?

3. If there is such a life, how do we know?

False doctrine has been rampant since Bible times. We must be careful not to be deceived by false prophets.

This is why we must know what the Bible says and take heed to who teaches what, and what kind of doctrine they teach.

We must also not entertain any form of mockery or insults against the Christian faith.

Following a spiritual father is a big part of growth in discipleship. A spiritual father is one whom God has given to someone for their spiritual well-being. Scriptures give us solid backing for this sort of relationship. We see examples with Paul and Timothy, and Elijah and Elisha. Through observation, following instructions, and learning to stay, you will grow.

Ministry gifts are vital for church development, and this is God's strategy for building and equipping men. In order to be mentored by a spiritual father, service within the church is essential because this fosters discipleship and character building. Elisha showed great tenacity to learn, observe and be in close proximity with his spiritual father (Elijah) which only a follower would possess. By observing your ministry gifts closely and seeing what is possible in their lives, you can see all that is possible in your life as well.

Our idea on discipleship should be from the scriptures, you need to put aside your own idea and accept scriptures, The church of Christ must be a church of disciples, Your walk with Christ is an instruction, A lot of people are saved but not discipled, you need to be discipled.

To be a student of the Word, it is important to prioritize going to church to be taught the things of God. Honor and take seriously, the structures that have been set for you in the church. The structures are put in place to aid your spiritual growth. This is the way to be a disciple.

Jesus set a structure for how the church and the gospel would continue to move forward in His absence. This was His final instruction before His ascension. He gave them a template of what He had done with them to do with others. He said, “Go into the world and make disciples…” As such, the church of Christ is not meant to be a mere assembly of members but a community of devoted disciples.
