Last week on Encounter with Jesus focused on the Jesus Parable of the Persistent Widow in Luke 18 and discovered how believer's are called to enduring faithfulness in prayer. We are called to remain faithful in prayer until we see Jesus.

A Kingdom P.U.U.S.H. to Persevering Prayer
Pray Until U(you) See Him

Pray until you see Him with eyes of love so that He is your only focus in worship.
Pray until you see His reflection in your attitude and love towards others.
Pray until You see His likeness take control of your desires, and your thinking.
Pray until you see Him in the lives of your friends, family members and acquaintances that do not know Him as Lord and Savior.
Pray for justice for the oppressed and persecuted.
Pray until you see Him proclaimed to every people on earth.
Pray for us as a church that God will lead us to know how to reach the unengaged.
Pray until you see Him return as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

James 5:16 (ESV) The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working.

We also were challenged to form Prayer Bands to pray together.

This week we will explore Jesus teaching in John 14-16 about what it means to pray "In Jesus Name." It means far more than what we normally think of. It is not the closing words of a prayer, it is an entry into the presence of God.

Join us as we explore Praying in Jesus' Name from John 16.
