Can You Hear Me Now?Psalm 22 [1] My God, my God, why have you abandoned me? Why are you so far away when I groan for help? [2] Every day I call to you, my God, but you do not answer. Every night you hear my voice, but I find no relief.

Cherishing Sin

Wrong Motives
Static in Our Prayer Connection with God
Self CheckDo I have a FAITH connection with God? Have I
made my decision to trust and follow Him, or am just doing the church thing and just hanging around Christianity?
Is there some sin I’ve been cherishing, that I’m not
willing to give up? Are my motives wrong? Am I just trying to get
something for my own selfish pleasure?

When God Does Hear!Psalm 66 [19]
God did listen! He paid attention to my prayer.

Isaiah 55 [9]“As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.”
Hold onto…….the truth that God sees things that you cannot see; He knows things that you do not know. He is the One who KNOWS what is best for you!
Jeremiah 29 [11] For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Hold onto…….the truth that God has a plan for your life. He not only knows what is best for you, He WANTS what is BEST for you!
1 John 3 [1] How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him.
Hold onto…….the truth that God LOVES YOU DEARLY. You are His child!
