Do you know what it means to pray according to the will of God? The Bible tells us to do this, but does this mean that we don't pray and ask for our hearts desires? Should we just pray, "Your will be done."

We should pray according to God's will, but this might not mean what you think.  When you understand God's will, when it comes to prayer, it opens up the power of prayer in a big way.

The goal of this teaching series is to address and dig deep into the questions and confusion that we have with prayer.  We know prayer is important, let's have an honest conversation on why we don't pray like we should.

Seeking God: Desiring a touch of God through prayer and fasting.
