One Charge: Lessons In Kingdom From The Life Of Joseph YM360

Communication is vital in any relationship, and our relationship with God is no different. There is a powerful tool every believer has, and yet many of us never use it to its full potential. If we want to stay connected to God, then we need to pray. This series is designed to answer four major questions about prayer to best keep us connected with Christ.

Connected: Building a Foundation of Prayer is designed to help students understand how important prayer is in the life of a believer. Prayer is not just tossing up some words with our eyes closed, but rather a gift allowing us to stand in the presence of a loving God.

“Connected” covers the following purposes and passages:

• SESSION 1 – “What Is Prayer?”: We have all experienced prayer before, but in session one, we will lay out a scriptural definition of prayer, which will serve as the basis for the rest of our study. (Romans 8:26-27, Matthew 27:51)
• SESSION 2 – “How Do We Pray?”: Jesus lays out a model prayer for us in Matthew. We’ll use this model to help us see four requirements of our prayers. (Matthew 6:5-13)
• SESSION 3 – “When Do We Pray?”: Is it meals, before bed, or during church? We are going to use this lesson to look at the peace which comes through a life of constant prayer. (Philippians 4:4-7)
• SESSION 4 – “Why Do We Pray?”: Power tools can accomplish anything when they are connected to their power source. God has great plans for each of our lives, and prayer is how we stay connected to the real cause of strength. (Ephesians 3:14-21)
