The Primary Purpose
of Prayer
"But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray
to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is
done in secret, will reward you. And when you pray, do not keep on
babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of
their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what
you need before you ask him" (Matthew 6:6-8 NIV).
God's Time
James
2:14-26 NKJV
Faith Without Works Is Dead
You are carrying out
the mandate of ORU
Do you realize that for the past 40 years, 24 hours a day, there
has been someone up in that tower praying for you? Before you even
chose to attend ORU, there was someone praying that you would have
wisdom in your college selection. And now you have been selected to
carry out the mandate of Oral Roberts University. You have been chosen
and set apart to transform the world.
