Luke 18 Jesus tells a story of a widow who comes to a judge to ask for
justice. The story says that the judge didn't care about people or God,
but finally because the woman was so persistent he gave her what she
wanted...
In Matthew
7 Jesus says, "Keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for.
Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will
be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who seeks,
finds. And to everyone who knocks, the door will be opened." (NLT) I
am not sure I always understand how prayer works. Or why some prayers
are answered and other are not. But I am sure that if I never ask, I
will never get a response...
At New Covenant we
believe that prayer is a conversation with the creator of the universe
- a dialogue between us and God. Sometimes it means asking. Sometimes
it means listening. Sometimes is means crying, yelling, thanking or
even sitting quietly without doing anything.
We have different
groups and individuals that pray for people. Additionally we have a
wonderful Prayer Shawl Ministry for those who are sick, hurting,
grieving, celebrating or going through significant changes in their
life. If you want to learn more about the Prayer Shawl Ministry feel
free to email Dorothy using the form to the right...
