Last week on Encounter with Jesus focused on the conditions of Mountain Moving prayer in Mark 11:22-25.

F.A.S.T. Prayer

Forgiveness - God only answers our prayers when we are in a right relationship with Him and with others. Seek reconciliation and forgive others as God has forgiven you. 1 Timothy 2:5-6, Matthew 5:22-24, 1 Peter 3:7-9, Ephesians 4:32

Ask and Believe - Fix your heart and eyes on God Himself, fully convinced that God will keep His promises. Remember faith is measured by obedience not emotion. Luke 11:9-13, Romans 4:20-21, Romans 16:25-27

Share prayer with others. We are meant to pray in harmony with others for God’s glory. Acts 2:42-44, Matthew 18:19-20

Trust in the Person, Power, Purpose, Plan and Promises of God. To increase your faith you must increase your view of and trust in God Himself. Have faith in God. Faith is not emotional, it is our view of God.

Faith in the Person of God. He has proven his love and character.
Faith in the Purpose of God. He works for his glory and our good.
Faith in the Plan of God. His timing weaves the lives of others together for his glory and our good.
Faith in the Promises of God. Base your faith and your prayers on God’s Word and He will move impossible mountains.

We also were challenged to form Prayer Bands to pray together. Click here for the Prayer Bands Insert.

This week we will follow up our focus on perseverance in prayer with Jesus Parable of the Unjust Judge and Widow and his probing question... "Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?” Luke 18:8.

Join us as we explore Faith and Prayer in an Unjust World from Luke chapter 18.
