16
In this we see what love is, because he gave his life for us; and it is right for us to give our lives for the brothers.
17
But if a man has this world's goods, and sees that his brother is in need, and keeps his heart shut against his brother, how is it possible for the love of God to be in him?
18
My little children, do not let our love be in word and in tongue, but let it be in act and in good faith.

When our heart says that we have done wrong; because God is greater than our heart, and has knowledge of all things.

Answered Prayer
Jeff Johnson
In the Gospels, we can read about Jesus and His intimate prayer life with the Father. If Jesus being the Son God felt the need to pray, how much more should we pray? On todays program, pastor Jeff says we need to step out in faith, and pray for our needs. God has given us the free gift of praying to Him, and He wants to bless us. If exercise our prayer life, we will not only grow deeper in our relationship with God, but we will be blessed with answers to our prayers.

But today, Pastor Jeff points out “that it’s important to pray according to the will of God.” And in His time He will make all things beautiful. Now get ready to hide God’s Word in your heart, through Sound Doctrine.
