John 3:16 "For God so loved the world
that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in
him shall not perish but have eternal life."
Once we know that God cares and that
God loves us, we need to come to him and ask for his help.
We call this Prayer. Prayer is simply "talking to God" and
the Bible encourages us to do this.
Hebrews 4:16 says, "Let
us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that
we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time
of need."
And in 1 Peter 5:7 we are told to "Cast
all your anxiety on him [Jesus] because he cares for you."
Philippians 4:6-7 says "Do
not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer
and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to
God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding,
will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
Grace
Church is a church made up of ordinary people who have experienced
God's help in various ways. We have seen all sorts of wonderful
answers to prayer and have all benefited at different times
from the prayers of others. We meet regularly to pray together.
If you are in Cyprus and would like us to pray for you about
anything, you are welcome to send us a prayer request by email
to colinandjane@cytanet.com.cy
and we will be happy to include it in our prayer meeting.
For practical reasons we have to restrict
these prayer requests to people from Cyprus, but if you would
like prayer where you live please look at the church directory
on the
Newfrontiers
web page.
Why is this happening to me?
Can anyone help, is God really there?
Does God really care?
How can I get help from God?
