Living on the Edge with Chip Ingram Daily Podcast

The Power of Prayer - How to Pray with Absolute Confidence, Part 1


Listen Later

Chip asks: When you really need an answer from God - you’ve got a big decision to make, a serious situation is dragging on and on, a doctor’s report is frightening, a friend or family member is headed in a direction you know isn’t good - how can you pray and have absolute confidence that God hears you? If those questions are familiar, this message is for you!

Main Points
Faith:
  • Definition = Hebrews 11:1
  • Importance = Hebrews 11:6
  • Faith, therefore, is having absolute confidence that whatever God says, He will do.
  • Question: When you pray, are you going to God with absolute certainty and confidence that what you are asking for will be given?

    You can pray with absolute confidence. -1 John 5:13-15

    How?

    1. To whom is this promise made? -1 John 5:13
    2. How must we pray to know God hears our prayers? -1 John 5:14
    3. How can we know the will of God? -1 John 5:14 -- By the promises of His Word
    4. How can we know God’s will when we have no promise for a particular situation? -Romans 8:26-27
    5. Conclusion: “We must pray in faith. That is, we must pray with confident expectation of getting the very thing we ask.” -George Mueller
