Morning Chapel Prayer Today

Excerpt from “A Triumphal Banquet: Recipe for Faith” by R.W. Schambach 1986.
“Do you know why prayer is so unpopular in the churches today? You can advertise a musical group and pack the church. You can even sell tickets at the door, and people will buy them. But it’s hard to fill the front row for prayer meeting on Wednesday night! Why?”
Prayer seems like a waste of time, because so many people never get an answer.
It shouldn’t be! Jesus said, “Ask and ye shall receive. Seek and ye shall find. Knock and it shall be opened unto you!”
Do you know what I like best about His promise? He went on to say, “Everyone that asketh receiveth, and to everyone that knocketh it shall be opened!”
I don’t know how many times I depend on that! I love to pray.
If people believed that they would get answers when they pray, they would jam the prayer meetings, every time a prayer meeting was called. Look again at God’s promise. Not one out of ten times. Not four out of five times!
“Everyone that asketh receiveth!”
Keep praying don’t stop, things are changing… things are happening!

Pastor Ken shared…
Once upon a time, we were taught to pray; now we are taught to think positively. Once upon a time, we were taught to have supernatural empowerment, now we have superficial encouragement… Where once we had power, now we have programs. Where once we had miracles, now we have methods. Where once we had the Spirit, now we have style.
The church in this hour is trying to accomplish in the flesh what was once accomplished in the spirit.
Only that which is born of the spirit is spirit.
There must come a resurgence of reliance on the power and ministry of the Holy Spirit.
A single moment in the presence of the Holy Spirit can transform your life, but a life spent in the presence of the Holy Spirit can transform the nations.
This doesn’t come by taking a class or watching your favorite Bible teacher… we must get back to the places of prayer!
We need a return of the power of the Holy Ghost.
We don’t need another meeting or marketing campaign, conform or a list of best practices… what we need is a return of the power of the Holy Ghost!
This is not the time to sit on the edge of the river of God, it’s time to jump in and learn to swim and flow in the movement of the Holy Spirit – He is the answer!
Scripture Focus…
Oh, foolish Galatians! Who has cast an evil spell on you? For the meaning of Jesus Christ’s death was made as clear to you as if you had seen a picture of his death on the cross. (2) Let me ask you this one question: Did you receive the Holy Spirit by obeying the law of Moses? Of course not! You received the Spirit because you believed the message you heard about Christ. (3) How foolish can you be? After starting your new lives in the Spirit, why are you now trying to become perfect by your own human effort? (4) Have you experienced so much for nothing? Surely it was not in vain, was it? (5) I ask you again, does God give you the Holy Spirit and work miracles among you because you obey the law? Of course not! It is because you believe the message you heard about Christ.
(Galatians 3:1–5 NLT)
Yet no one calls on your name or pleads with you for mercy. Therefore, you have turned away from us and turned us over to our sins.
(Isaiah 64:7 NLT)
