Do you yearn to pray but can never quite start? Do you feel your prayer-life could be more meaningful, but don't know how? Do you sometimes doubt your prayers, feeling that they are empty words, or words 'landing' in an empty place?

Do you long for a deeper, intimate, more meaningful connection with God? Do you desire your prayers to be more powerful, beautiful, and frequent?

In this series of films, we explore the concept of Holding God to His Word on the promises He made in scripture.

We begin by praying from, and into, those very promises. We will find and utilise some of the most powerful and beautiful, yet often overlooked, passages of scripture - and then use them to take us into deep and intimate prayer. Connection through prayer. Communion through prayer.

Faith through Prayer!

God promises to listen to you, and you can Hold God To His Word.

    I’m not sure how I got here. I have a pretty active prayer life and I don’t normally watch much YouTube but the Holy Spirit totally led me here today! I was so deeply ministered to with this teaching. It has encouraged and strengthened my heart more than anything has in long time. Thank you!
  • I use to go into my closet to pray, following my near death and resurrection at age 23. I relearned to walk, be a mom and moved 200 miles away from my family with my son, to begin again. I could not learn enough, and yes I talked to God while I was in closet. Even today, i talk with god throughout my day, showing gratitude for the miracle in my life, as well as all blessing that has been bestowed upon my life, and the lives of my children, grandchildren, and those which I hold dear to my soul. Thankyou FOR SHARING

    I've always had what seems like a barrier in my prayers. Growing up I was left on my own at a young age. Noone listened to me or cared to. I'm 60 years old and still feel like this child with Father God. I had trauma of abandonment. I wanted to be accepted so I never spoke up for myself. I was hungry but never said. I was cold walking the streets but pretended I was going somewhere. I was in need of a caretaker but noone was there. Then God found me. I was 14. The reason I write this is to give you a sense of who I am and understand what I am about to say. I don't know how I found this channel today but this teaching on prayer is so beautiful. How our Father listens with readiness and we can even remind Him of His promises? How wonderful. I'm going to start doing this type of prayer along with asking the Father to show me Who His Son is. That was the first video I watched. I always think that if you ask something like that you'll end up suffering alot or something bad will happen so THEN you will know God better but maybe lose a leg or something. Please forgive me....for so long I've just wanted to be honest with someone. I'm going to set my fear aside. I'm going to trust that He hears and is at the ready to actively listen to me. Thank you thank you thank you for your teachings today. I agree with you about Cesarea Phillipi and I agree with you that God hears. Thank you. I just need to agree with The Father.

    I stay in constant prayer after being on fire for Christ just for 3 months now I stay in a constant prayer with the father not only do I pray in private but I stay in a communication with him that's what he wants us to do and if we are going to put him first that's what we ought to do
  • My prayer life has been so dry, that yesterday I requested a vacation at a cabin 2 hours away for 8 day 8 night to be by myself all by myself with my Bible.
  • The one thing that helped my prayer life was simply asking God to help me with my prayer life , one thing I often do is ask God to speak for me through His Spirit as Paul even says in Romans the Holy Spirit intercedes for us with wordless groans because we don't know ourselves what to pray for , ever since I started doing this I have had significant improvement in my prayers and as a result prayers answered in miraculous ways! Praise God for His faithfulness❤️ to Him be glory, power, dominon, blessings, honour and praise forever in Lord Jesus precious name. Amen 🙏
  • @BlackWOLFF81
    That is the enemy that is a stronghold that the enemy is thriving in!! The way I broke that stronghold was I just kept seeking God's Voice through scripture and my prayer time became more and more in my prayers became focused on what to pray for and how to pray and I also put my face to the ground and bow down to show submission and repentance and that our God is in full control! So what I'm trying to say is we have to practice at doing some of the things that are hard to do and we will have a breakthrough and we will able be able to pray that God breaks the strongholds from the Demonic forces

    1 Peter 5:7 “Turn all your anxiety over to God because he cares for you.” Jesus loves you dont give up on him!!❤!!
  • Pray with me to have a pure heart, mind, and soul. In Jesus Name. Thank you for leading me here FATHER.
  • @lizroberts5434
    In two years since I gave my life to Jesus. He found me. Wonderful testimony but much to long. I'm 70 ' and had no Christian upbringing. So no belief. Now I'm hungry for him. I have a lot of questions not getting answered.until I found you. THANK YOU. Now listening to all your videos.GBY.
  • Recently I had read extensively on the words " Thy Will be done". Also that it evoked fear in many Christians because of the idea that God was cruel/to be feared/a vengeful God. Almost as if, by asking God to do HIS Will, he would strike us down with a lightening bolt or any other sort of horrific nightmare we cower from. The fear placed in many of us, as children, of God, makes asking Him for anything, scary. It was through His Son, and the Jesus Prayer, that I started a year ago in 2021, that I first felt I could break through the barrier of "me and Them". Them being God and Jesus and the Holy Spirit. As if I was outside and preferring it to be so, because I was humiliated by my sins and fearing what would come "one day" on the day of Judgment. But, as you said near the end of your video, when we feel we might or do have "the ear of God" our list falls away. My list has fallen away, yet mountains have moved since Christmas 2021. So just recently have I been brave enough to say " oh Lord, Thy Will be done." I still have butterflies of apprehension in my gut. I still feel I have 53 years of indoctrination about how God will punish me, to overcome. But I am trying. The sense of urgency has picked up since I turned 50. My follies of youth became just that. Youthful follies. I am no longer a youth. Your videos and this is probably the sixth in as many days, are a shower of knowledge and gratitude on me, as I let go of my self inflicted exodus from the Presence of God. Thank you. Please know, that you have transformed at least ONE person's life. I poured over the Bible many times and just couldn't understand it. 2 weeks ago I bought a bible for the first time in decades. Then I found your channel, as I wanted to hear it read out loud. I wished to fall asleep and wake to the verses....and your sleep video was "made" for me in mind. Bless you. 🙏 Now I do fall asleep and wake to your voice reading the bible. It sets the tone for sleep and waking. I had played the Jesus Prayer for the past year but wished for more. Bless all who have helped you make your films possible. May God's Will be done for all who have lent their time and energy to your endeavour. Amen.
  • such a refreshing honest, careful, slow discussion about an essential tool we have that enables us to speak directly with God.
  • Thank you! We often forget that God allows us to be persistent in prayer just like in Luke 11:8. We want to embrace our calling fully, sometimes he makes us wait a long time to get to the next step. So, there's nothing wrong with being persistent in prayer if your intention is to do his will. Thank you for bringing this to light! I appreciate your closeness with God! He has blessed you!
  • @ziip007
    Thank you. All Glory to God. Amen
  • I really like these, the way you speak and calm voice makes it so much easier to absorb, thankyou
  • @debisherman2652
    Thank you. I long to pray I ask for help to know how to pray. I have not been pleased with my prayer. I ask in Jesus name Father to teach me to pray. Amen
