Theme: Prayer

Notes:

Road Hazards to Avoid:

1. Sin
   • Sin cannot break our relationship with God
   • But it can harm our fellowship with God
2. Selfishness
   • Lack of forgiveness is selfishness–and sin
3. Surrender
   • Failure to surrender to God’s will yields
     • Chaos
     • Compromise
   • The Lord’s Prayer begins with prayers to align our hearts to God’s purposes
     • Hallowed be Your name
     • Your kingdom come
     • Your will be done
   • Prayer is God’s resource for His glory, for His purpose
   • It is wrong and pointless to ask for those things that God would not desire or that would not glorify Him
   • The gospel should inform all of your choices:
     • Marriage
     • Parenting
     • Work
     • Play
     • Ministry
     • Citizenship
   • Being committed to God’s will is being committed to God’s methods for working out His will

Live It Out

1. Confess and forsake any known sin and ask for God’s grace to fight it
2. Forgive those who have sinned against you
   • Forgiveness does not obviate consequences
   • Forgiveness does not equal trust
3. Surrender to God’s kingdom, will, and glory
