EQUIPPING & ENGAGING YOU IN 40 DAYS OF PRAYER.
“PRAYING IN FIVE DIMENSIONS”
When Moses spoke the words “Hear, O Israel: …” (Deuteronomy 6:5), they followed comments about the need to follow God’s commandments and preceded a warning about the consequences of failing to do so. He offered the idea that this commandment was the greatest. During a conversation Jesus had with an expert in the law, He was asked what the greatest commandment was. Jesus turned it around and ask the individual what he believed. The law expert replied, “Love the Lord your God…..” (Luke10:27). Jesus affirmed this as being the correct response. Knowing the importance of obedience and love is to our relationship with God, the question we may ask from these commandments is “what does it mean to love God with all our heart, soul, strength, and mind?”
This week’s lesson touches on praying in a multidimensional way that engages God in all levels thereby helping us love Him and our neighbours, with our whole being. It is called “Praying in five dimensions”. To benefit from the study, download the material below and listen to the video link include for this week.
