Scripture: Genesis 1:26–27

Prayer: Conversation of Friends

Genesis 1:26-27; Hebrews 4:14-16; John 15:14-15

 

Why is prayer so important?

 

Who God Is (Genesis 1:26-27):

- Plural
- Conversational
- Personal

 

God's Purpose: To have a relationship with His people.

 

What Jesus has accomplished:

- God can be known (Hebrews 4:14-16).
- We are members of His family.
- We are Jesus' friends (John 15:14-15).

 

 

Prayer Point: In prayer, the Christian knows God as friend.
