Audience of One - Pt 1: Prayer over Performance

Audience of One - Pt 1: Prayer over Performance

In a world obsessed with being seen, liked, and approved, Jesus calls us to live for an audience of One. In Matthew 6, He teaches us to give, pray, and fast — not for recognition, but for a deeper relationship with the Father who sees in secret. This series will challenge us to shift our focus from the applause of people to the approval of God, finding freedom, authenticity, and purpose in living fully for Him.

It's better to please God and disappoint people than please people and disappoint God.
Point 1: The Place of Prayer
"But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen."
What you show in public will always be shaped in private.
WHEN YOU PRAY
First - Identify your room.
Second - Close the door.
And Third - See the unseen.
The very tools you’ve been looking for in public are waiting for you in private.
Point 2: The Purpose of Prayer
1 Kings 18 - Elijah on Mount Carmel
First - Don’t worry about word count.
Second - Be authentic.
Third - Trust that God already knows what you need.
If God already knows, why tell Him?
Prayer is not primarily about presenting requests, it is about cultivating relationship.
Prayer isn’t about informing God, it’s about involving God.
Point 3: The Person of Prayer
God is not just the reflection of your earthly dad, He is the perfection of your earthly dad.
When you forgive the father that hurt you, you can be healed by the father, who
loves you.
