Love in Action
16 This is how we have come to know love: He laid down His life for us. We should also lay down our lives for our brothers.
17
If anyone has this world's goods and sees his brother in need but shuts off his compassion from him-how can God's love reside in him?
18
Little children, we must not love in word or speech, but in deed and truth;
19
that is how we will know we are of the truth, and will convince our hearts in His presence,
20
because if our hearts condemn us, God is greater than our hearts and knows all things.
21
Dear friends, if our hearts do not condemn [us] we have confidence before God,

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.
