And this is the confidence that we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us. And if we know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked of him.
1 John 5:14-15 (ESV) |
Because God is faithful, we can pray confidently. We invite you to join us for the Further Conference 2024: “Confident Prayers, Faithful God”, where we will learn to pray confidently, not because we are strong, but because our God is faithful.
