How do you grow in your faith?

You stay in the Word.

You remind yourself of the promises of God.

You remind yourself of the goodness of God.

You read what God says about Himself.

Don't spend time looking at what people have shown you by their poor examples.

Therefore, I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it and it will be yours.

That's Mark 11, 24, and this is destined for victory with Pastor Paul Shepard.

Well, time and again in God's word, the Lord tells us that he answers prayer.

It's one of our most powerful weapons when we don't use often enough.

Today, you'll get an in-depth look at the power of prayer, as well as a few of the reasons

why your prayers might sometimes be hindered.

We hope you'll stay with us, but just in case your schedule won't allow that today,

remember, you can visit our website,

Pastor Paul.net,

and listen to any of our recent messages on demand, including today's.

That's Pastor Paul.net.

Now, let's get started with this message.

There's power in prayer. If your reality is there are times you ask in faith and you think everything's in order in terms of your asking in your state of faith and it doesn't happen, what do you do?

You don't stop and freak out.

You stay in the mode of expectation.

The best way to remind yourself of what you ought to be like is to as often as you can or memorize the passage in Luke 18.
