This is the second sermon in a series of sermons on Prayer.
Last week we saw that “Prayer is the great two-handed engine at our door. “ (P.T. Forsyth) When I read that I think of Albrecht Dürer’s “Praying Hands.” An engine supplies power. Prayer supplies power. Two hands are more powerful than one. This engine called prayer is “at our door.” It is not a closed door. It is an open door. We all have access to prayer. By prayer we enter heaven, and place ourselves and our concerns before God. By prayer we claim God’s promises, and lay hold of God’s provisions. “Prayer changes things,” said the late Dr. J.C. McPheeters, first President of Asbury Theological Seminary, “prayer changes the pray-er.” Prayer changes me. Prayer changes you. The ancient Rabbis had a saying: “No prayer is genuine unless the one who prays it is willing to be a part of the answer.” By prayer we move the earth. “More things are accomplished in prayer than we can imagine.”
Worth Green, Th. M., D. Min.
Prayer is arguably a human being’s first act of faith in God. According the Scripture, God addresses us constantly. In Romans 1 the apostle writes:
“Ever since the creation of the world his invisible nature, namely, his eternal power and deity, has been clearly perceived in the things that have been made.”
And in Psalm 19we read:
1 The heavens are telling the glory of God; and the firmament proclaims his handiwork. 2 Day to day pours forth speech, and night to night declares knowledge. 3 There is no speech, nor are there words; their voice is not heard; 4 yet their voice goes out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world.
Prayer is our response to God’s initiative. It turns monologue into dialogue.
