Is it possible to pray every day and still miss what God is actually saying?

This week, Pastor Alvin closes out our "Wait on the Lord" series with a message titled "Intimate with God." Drawing from 1 Corinthians 2:14, 1 Corinthians 14:14, and Romans 8:26, he reminds us that Christianity is spiritual by nature, and real intimacy with God requires more than our natural understanding. There has to be a conversion, a shift from praying our will to praying His.

Using Peter's rebuke of Jesus in Matthew 16 as a picture, Pastor Alvin shows how soulish prayers, ones rooted in emotion, understanding, or willpower, can sound faithful and still miss what God is actually doing. This message challenges us to move past praying to God and into praying from Him, trading our need to understand for the deeper intimacy of being led by His Spirit (Romans 8:14-15).

How close are you to God? And how much are you willing to let Him lead?
