The Apostle Paul’s letter to his spiritual son, Timothy, holds powerful truths for us today. Prayer is indispensable in life and ministry. Let’s study it together.
By Mark D. Harris
How many of us have ever had a “Sweet Hour of Prayer?” How would our lives be changed if we did? Reflect on the words of the old hymn:
- Sweet hour of prayer Sweet hour of prayer
- That calls me from a world of care
- And bids me at my Father’s throne
- Make all my wants and wishes known
- In seasons of distress and grief
- My soul has often found relief
- And oft escaped the tempter’s snare
- By Thy return, sweet hour of prayer
- Sweet hour of prayer Sweet hour of prayer
- The joys I feel, the bliss I share
- Of those whose anxious spirits burn
- With strong desires for Thy return
- With such I hasten to the place
- Where God my Savior shows His face
- And gladly take my station there
- And wait for Thee, sweet hour of prayer
- Sweet hour of prayer Sweet hour of prayer
- And wait for Thee Sweet hour of prayer
