Part 1 of Prayer School 2008 Prayer is the place where we can be in direct communication with God. This communication with God is precious and holy. 3 Basics of Prayer: 1. Faith-Hebrews 11:6 -Believe that God is Who He says He is. God is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him. Jeremiah 33 Call on the Lord and He will answer show you all things. 2. Trust-Proverbs 3:5&6 - Trust in the person of God must precede trust in the Word of God. Perfected trust results in perfected prayer. Hope =future Trust = NOW Hope = expects Trust = possess & receives 3. Desire - Mark 11:23 - desire is much than a wish. Desire is an intense longing and unrelenting ferver to not let go of the prize. Desire is an intense longing for attainment.
