Pray Request and Answered Prayers

James 5:16 ...The prayer of a good man is full of power in its working. (BBE)

1 Thessalonians 5:17 Pray without ceasing. (KJV)

Matthew 26:41 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. (KJV)

Those are just a small sampling of Scripture on prayer. Jesus set an example for us.

Matthew 14:23 And when he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when the evening was come, he was there alone. (KJV)

Matthew 26:36 Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder. (KJV)

Mark 6:46 And when he had sent them away, he departed into a mountain to pray. (KJV)

Considering the importance of prayer and its power, I have added two pages Prayer Request and Answered Prayers to the Turkey Creek Free Will Baptist (Ohio) website. It is not limited to members or attendees of the church. I'd like to see these pages become used by the world wide web community. Help us use these pages to bring glory to God. I am convinced the more we broadcast His workings the more He will do.

I have heard Pastor John Hagee on his TV broadcast often repeat a favorite quote of his mother: "Little prayer-little power, more prayer-more power, much prayer-much power.
