00:18 Hello, and welcome to Praise. I'm Kelly Mowrer.
00:21 In ancient Persia, a law was passed,
00:24 making it a crime, a death penalty crime,
00:27 to pray to anyone except the emperor.
00:30 But one old faithful servant of God was willing
00:34 to die rather than give up his habit of prayer.
00:39 How much does my time of prayer mean to me
00:42 and how much does it mean to you?
00:44 We sing the hymn "Sweet Hour of Prayer."
00:47 But do we really treasure it?
00:49 Do we realize the precious value of time with Him?
00:53 Today we're going to spend our time together,
00:56 remembering the blessings of prayer not as a formality,
01:00 but as a time to talk with a friend
01:03 who knows us best and loves us the most.
04:09 O the wonder of your greatness, Lord
04:15 Is wider than the sea and sky
04:21 Yet Your mercies, Lord, are greater still
04:27 For I live because You died
04:33 O the wonder of Your grace, O Lord
04:40 That you would bear our sins along
04:45 That we might stand behind the veil
04:51 To stand before Your throne
04:57 In Your presence there is comfort
05:03 In Your presence there is peace
05:09 Let Your glory fill this temple
05:16 Let Your Spirit flow through me
05:35 In Your presence now I give you praise
05:42 For the wondrous things that You have done
05:47 And even passed a thousand years
05:54 My praise with a trust beyond
06:00 In Your presence one day we will bow
06:06 And worship at Your throne
06:12 And sing a song of grateful praise
06:18 For the mercies You have shown
06:24 In Your presence there is comfort
06:30 In Your presence there is peace
06:35 Let Your glory fill this temple
06:42 Let Your spirit flow through me
06:48 In Your presence
06:54 In Your presence
07:00 In Your presence there is comfort
07:07 In Your presence there is peace
07:13 Let Your glory fill this temple
07:19 Let Your spirit flow through me
07:29 Let Your spirit flow
07:35 Let Your presence flow
07:41 Let Your glory flow
07:47 Let it flow, let it flow
07:55 Let it flow
08:01 Through me
08:09 Amen
08:16 Amen

15:11 A story is told about Alexander, The Great.
15:14 How one day a courier asked him for some financial aid
15:18 and the great leader told him to go to his treasurer
15:21 and ask for whatever he wanted.
15:23 A little laterthe treasurer came to Alexander and he said,
15:26 "This man has asked for a huge sum of money
15:30 and I didn't want to pay this out to him."
15:33 And Alexander replied, "Give him what he asks for.
15:36 He has treated me like a king in his asking
15:39 and I shall be like a king in my giving."
15:43 And there is a related story about an old church janitor.
15:47 Who has asked how he liked his new preacher.
15:49 Oh, I like him pretty well, he said.
15:51 But our old preacher asked God for things
15:54 That I don't think this new preacher even knows God has.
15:58 James wrote to us, "You have not because you ask not."
16:03 And Jesus said, "I have chosen you
16:05 and ordained you that you should bring forth fruit
16:10 and whatsoever he shall ask of the Father in my name,
16:14 he will give it to you."
16:22 There are so many
16:28 Who need Your touch
16:33 We have come together
16:36 Because we love You so much
16:43 You are our Father
16:47 And we're here to worship You
16:52 We praise You and we thank You,God
16:57 For what You're going to do
17:05 Dear Lord
17:08 Send a miracle today
17:16 Bless Your children
17:20 Dear Lord, I pray
17:27 Open heaven's door like You've done
17:33 So many times before
17:40 Lord

17:54 Teach us Lord, to listen
18:00 To Your spirits call
18:05 Fill in us with power
18:09 And strengthening our soul
18:15 Your sweet anointing
18:19 And Your precious gifts received
18:24 We place our faith and trust in You
18:29 Together we believe

20:03 Blessing of me like a big blue sky
20:10 I know someone has me on their heart tonight
20:18 That's why I know, it's gonna be all right
20:23 'Cause somebody's praying me through
20:32 Somebody's praying me through
20:39 It maybe my mother, it might be my dad
20:47 Or an old friend I've forgot I had
20:54 But whoever it is I'm so glad that
21:01 Somebody's praying me through
21:08 Somebody's praying me through
21:14 Through the tears, through the rain
21:21 Through the sorrow, through the pain
21:29 It keeps bringing me through
21:34 Over and over again
22:00 So when You're drowning in a sea of hurt
22:08 And it feels like life, couldn't get any worse
22:15 There's a blessing waiting to pushback the curse
22:21 'Cause somebody's praying you through
22:28 'Cause somebody's praying you through
22:35 Yes, somebody's praying
22:42 You through
23:00 There are so many prayers Jesus loves to hear from us.
23:03 Prayers for others. Prayers for His mercies.
23:06 Nicolaus Copernicus was a famous astronomer born in 1473.
23:10 He was a mathematician, whose accomplishments
23:12 changed the way we looked at the universe.
23:15 He was a well-known writer, but although highly educated
23:19 in the stars and astronomy, he was much more a child of God
23:23 who learned to know and trust his Savior Jesus Christ.
23:27 And when he was critically ill, in his final illness
23:30 his book on "Resolutions of the Celestial Bodies"
23:33 just off the press was laid in his arms.
23:35 At the close of his life he didn't think of himself
23:38 as an astronomer or scientist but as a sinner
23:40 who needed the forgiveness of the Savior.
23:43 He asked that the following be written on his gravestone.
23:46 "Lord, I do not ask the kindness didst Thou show to Peter.
23:50 Do not dare ask the grace Thou didst grant to Paul.
23:53 But Lord, the mercy Thou didst shown to the dying robber,
23:57 that mercy show to me, that I earnestly pray."
24:02 Listen now as we close out with Diane,
24:05 reminding us that Jesus wants each of us to come
24:08 And spend time with Him, to pour out our hearts,
24:11 to beg His mercy, to tell Him how much we love Him.
24:15 To thank Him for what He has done for us
24:18 And if either anybody here
24:19 has not done that for a long time,
24:22 use this song to come again to the friend
24:25 who cares for you more than any other
24:28 and loves you so much that he died for you.
24:35 How long has it been
24:40 Since You've talked with the Lord
24:45 And told Him your
24:48 Heart's hidden secrets?
24:54 How long since you've prayed?
24:59 How long since you've stayed on your knees
25:07 Till the light shone through?
25:14 How long has it been
25:19 Since your mind felt at ease?
25:24 How long since your heart
25:29 Knew no burden?
25:34 Can you call him your friend?
25:39 How long has it been
25:44 Since you knew that he cared for you?
26:03 How long has it been
26:08 Since you knelt by your bed
26:14 And prayed to the Lord up in heaven?
26:23 How long since you knew
26:28 That He'd answer you
26:33 And would keep you
26:36 The whole night through?
26:43 How long has it been
26:48 Since you woke with the dawn
26:53 And felt this day is
26:58 Worth living?
27:03 Can you call Him your friend?
27:08 How long has it been
27:13 Since you knew
27:15 That He cares for you?
27:22 Can you call Him your friend?
27:28 How long has it been
27:32 Since you knew that He cares for you?
27:43 Do you know
27:46 That He cares for you?
