## Resource

What happens when prayer becomes more than a religious routine and becomes a powerful partnership with God? Many believers know they should pray, yet struggle because no one has ever taught them how. Prayer was never meant to be begging, complaining, or wishful thinking. It is one of God's primary means of bringing His will to the earth and helping believers grow in spiritual maturity. In Episode 8 of “Born Again, What Now?”, Duane Sheriff teaches why prayer is the fourth spiritual food group revealed in Acts 2:42 and why it is essential for every believer's spiritual development. Drawing from Luke 11, Ephesians 1, and Colossians 1, he explains that it is not enough to simply pray—we must learn to pray effectively according to biblical principles. Through personal testimony and practical teaching, Duane reveals how Jesus taught His disciples to pray, why prayer is a partnership with God, and how believers have been given authority through Christ to bring heaven's reality into earthly circumstances. Learn how to approach God as your Heavenly Father, and gain insight into developing a prayer life that produces wisdom, spiritual understanding, maturity, and lasting fruit.
