00:11:58.25\00:12:01.75 It's much better than just showing up at their house 00:12:01.78\00:12:04.62 uninvited, isn't it? 00:12:04.65\00:12:06.22 When you get an invitation, 00:12:06.25\00:12:07.79 it means that someone wants to spend time with you, 00:12:07.82\00:12:11.19 that they enjoy your company. 00:12:11.23\00:12:13.33 Jesus is the same way, 00:12:13.36\00:12:15.06 He won't force you to talk to Him 00:12:15.10\00:12:16.87 or even spend time with Him. 00:12:16.90\00:12:18.93 The next song is an invitation for Jesus 00:12:18.97\00:12:22.00 to come by here. 00:12:22.04\00:12:23.61 Here's Nicole singing, "Kum Ba Yah". 00:12:23.64\00:12:26.31 Kum ba yah, my Lord, Kum ba yah! 00:12:35.35\00:12:42.86 Kum ba yah, my Lord, Kum ba yah! 00:12:42.89\00:12:50.10 Kum ba yah, my Lord, Kum ba yah. 00:12:50.13\00:12:57.37 O Lord, Kum ba yah 00:12:57.41\00:13:04.51 Someone's praying, Lord, Kum ba yah! 00:13:04.55\00:13:11.79 Someone's praying, Lord, Kum ba yah! 00:13:11.82\00:13:19.09 Someone's praying, Lord, Kum ba yah! 00:13:19.13\00:13:26.37 O Lord, Kum ba yah 00:13:26.40\00:13:34.34 When I was a little girl, 00:13:40.68\00:13:42.02 my mom taught me how to make bread. 00:13:42.05\00:13:44.49 My brothers and sisters and I 00:13:44.52\00:13:45.85 would gather in the kitchen with mom 00:13:45.89\00:13:47.46 and each one would work on making our own bread dough. 00:13:47.49\00:13:51.19 We would measure out all the ingredients we needed, 00:13:51.23\00:13:53.70 flour, water, salt, and sugar. 00:13:53.73\00:13:56.63 Those four ingredients 00:13:56.67\00:13:58.00 are all you need to make a dough. 00:13:58.03\00:14:00.10 But do you know what makes the bread rise? 00:14:00.14\00:14:02.64 Yeast, yeast is the one ingredient 00:14:02.67\00:14:05.44 that gives the dough the energy it needs 00:14:05.47\00:14:07.71 to become a nice big loaf of bread. 00:14:07.74\00:14:10.51 Prayer is the same way. 00:14:10.55\00:14:12.38 What are some ingredients of prayer? 00:14:12.41\00:14:14.92 How about praise for God, confession of sins, 00:14:14.95\00:14:18.12 and of course, asking God for His help in your life. 00:14:18.15\00:14:22.32 So what acts as the yeast in prayer? 00:14:22.36\00:14:26.26 What gives prayer the power it needs to be answered? 00:14:26.29\00:14:29.73 Well, faith of course, 00:14:29.76\00:14:31.90 you must believe when you pray that God will answer you. 00:14:31.93\00:14:35.80 Let's listen as Girls of Mercy 00:14:35.84\00:14:37.67 sing in their native language of Malawi, 00:14:37.71\00:14:39.97 "God Who Answers Prayer". 00:14:40.01\00:14:42.18 Did you know that God is with you 00:16:41.46\00:16:43.16 every moment of every day, 00:16:43.20\00:16:45.37 not a second goes by that He doesn't know 00:16:45.40\00:16:48.17 where you are and what you are doing?
