Pastor Rick with the final part of a message called praying in five dimensions.

Where do you start in this third dimension of I pray and I ask God for helping me as I look within?

Where do you start?

Well, you might start with the fruit of the spirit.

Galatians 522 and 23.

That's a good verse to write down. Galatians 522 and 23. That's a good verse to write down.

Galatians 522 and 23 are called the Nine Fruit of the Spirit.

And it says, the fruit of the spirit are these things.

Love, joy, peace, patience, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, self-control. I'd like all those things in my life.

I'd like to be more loving, more joyful, more peaceful, more patient. I'd like to be more self-controlled.

There's not a thing on that list I don't want. What is that? It's a perfect picture of Jesus.

And so you say, Jesus, you're in me, show me what

needs to change, and start producing some fruit in my life today. Help me to be a little bit more

loving today, a little more joyful today, a little more at peace, a little more patient. And every day, that could be a

godly checklist, because it's just a picture of Jesus. Jesus produced some fruit in me today.

Okay, number four, I did a backward look at the cross, I did an upward look at the Father's

face, I do an inward look at Christ Father's face, I'd do an inward look at Christ and me.

Then number four, fourth dimension, I look around and I ask the Holy Spirit to use me.

This is the fourth dimension of prayer.
