Teach Us To Pray

Description
The start of a new year presents a fresh opportunity to establish new rhythms for the year ahead.
Prayer has been a growing focus for The Street over the last few years—24/7 Prayer, the establishment of a permanent prayer room, and more prayer groups beginning—and it’s clear the Lord is calling us to lean into and depend on it more. The Oswald Chambers quote is proving true: “Prayer does not fit us for the greater work; prayer is the greater work.”
Just as the disciples asked Jesus, “Teach us to pray,” we come with the same request at the beginning of a new year. If we truly learn to pray as Jesus prayed, anything could happen—especially as we grasp that we are made His possession, we’re about His mission, and we totally depend on His provision.

January 12, 2025 - Emma RocheAs we come to God in prayer as our loving Father in heaven, it gives us perspective about what we pray for. One of the things Jesus encourages us to ask God for is for His kingdom to come, to be revealed and lived out on earth. But what does that look like? What part do we play in that? What are we actually asking God to do when we pray 'your kingdom come'?

January 05, 2025 - Jerram WattsApproaching God in prayer and calling Him 'Father' is loaded with more meaning and beauty than seen at first glance. To call Him 'Father' is to identify as His child—and that comes with indescribable blessings and privileges. We start 2025 by looking at the Lord's Prayer and how, if we understand and apply it, our prayer life will grow like never before.
