DAY 1 OF 6

DAY ONE: The Most Powerful Thing You Can Do

On June 8, 2003, at a Sunday evening service at Times Square Church, the Lord gave me a message of hope for a society that is at best without faith in God: the message from the Gospel of Mark 9:14–29.

Almost fifteen years have passed since I delivered that particular message to my church. But that one message turned into a mission to encourage believers about the need for prayer. And from that one message a regional and then national radio ministry called It’s Time to Pray was born!

Now it has given birth to a larger message which is my book It's Time to Pray

There are far too many Christians who are walking around dejected, depressed, hopeless, powerless, and in bondage to the flesh. This is not what the Christian life is or should be. Through the shed blood of Jesus Christ on the cross and His resurrection, Jesus restored our relationship with the living God and enabled us to live an abundant life!

Please understand, I’m not saying that as Christians we should never have a problem, feel down, or face trials. On the contrary, we will indeed face difficulty in life and experience spiritual warfare when living according to the Spirit rather than our flesh. But in the midst of these things, as believers we are not powerless and without hope. The most powerful thing we can do in our lives is pray!

Join me as we look at the tremendous lesson Jesus gives us in Mark 9 and how it relates to us, our walk with God, and our impact on our world. You will find, as I have, that it’s time to pray!

Do you need a deeper connection to God? Based on Carter Conlon’s book "It’s Time to Pray: God’s Power Changes Everything," this 6-day devotional shows how prayer is the way we connect to God’s power. Make prayer more than a moment. Make it a lifestyle.
