Good post

If I don’t do these things, I’m not ready.I just noticed how parenthetical that comment was. Wow.

And Joseph, you are right, it’s not the number of prayers we repeat that makes the difference. Praying while preaching is more about reminding ourselves of our dependence and need of divine blessing.

That is, he has not only ordained the ends, but the means as well. God is the Lord of prayer.

I would be interested to know what you think about it’s possible application.”And when you pray, do not use vain repetitions as the heathen do. For they think that they will be heard for their many words.” Matthew 6:7 (NKJV).

When we have done all we are unprofitable servants and depend totally on God’s sovereign grace to give the power.
