Bible Question:
Please I would like to tell me what is the context from Prayer of Feith. I would like to use it in my prayers. Thank you. Gamal |
Bible Answer: Dear Gamal, There is no such thing/wordings/example of Prayer of Faith. Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ talked about praying properly in Matthew 6. Read the chapter and meditate. I also recommend you a book "The God Who Hears" - by W. Bingham Hunter. I think it is a biblical study of prayer. Here are a few quotes from the book for your interest:- "...teaching and preaching about prayer often distort Scripture. We are told to use the Lord's promises as if they had no context in biblical literature or life, and we are encouraged to claim things the Bible never names. The name of Jesus is invoked over things He wouldn't recognize. And some of our godliest folk are tortured by barbarian banter: 'Maybe someday you'll have enough faith to be healed.'" "...I passionately disagree with the notion that prayer is a way to get from God what we want. Christian prayer, as explained in Scripture, seems something else entirely: Prayer is a means God uses to give us what He wants. The most important word in this definition is God...at root most of our prayer difficulties are theological problems......in the sense that we simply do not focus enough on the 'Theo'......prayer really makes sense only against the background of God's nature and attributes......" "From a biblical point of view, prayer is related to everything that we are and everything that God is. God does not respond to our prayers. God responds to us: to our whole life......Prayer is communication from whole persons to the Wholeness which is the living God." Shalom Azure |
