1
00:00:00,100 --> 00:00:04,000
Buried beneath this ground is 
the secret to an abundant 

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:06,300
Christian life. 
So, let's see what's under here 

3
00:00:06,300 --> 00:00:21,600
that shall we? 
IPhone, what's the film got to 

4
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:24,000
do with anything? 
Well, since you asked, will you 

5
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:27,900
to imagine that your Earthly 
father lives 2,000 miles away 

6
00:00:27,900 --> 00:00:29,500
from you? 
He lives on the other side of 

7
00:00:29,500 --> 00:00:32,400
the world and there is only one 
way you can stay in touch with 

8
00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:35,300
him. 
Jinora is it's through a phone 

9
00:00:35,300 --> 00:00:37,700
call now. 
Wouldn't it be the craziest 

10
00:00:37,700 --> 00:00:40,100
thing in the world? 
If you decided to bury your 

11
00:00:40,100 --> 00:00:42,800
phone in the ground, I mean, you
wouldn't be Surprised. 

12
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:46,400
If after a week went by two 
weeks, a month, a year went by 

13
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:49,400
that, you felt totally 
disconnected from your Earthly 

14
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:51,700
father. 
So my dear brothers and sisters,

15
00:00:51,700 --> 00:00:53,500
may I gently challenge you with 
this? 

16
00:00:53,500 --> 00:00:56,200
Have you buried your phone in 
the ground? 

17
00:00:56,300 --> 00:00:59,300
You see there is only one way we
can stay in touch of our 

18
00:00:59,300 --> 00:01:01,500
heavenly father and it's through
prayer. 

19
00:01:01,500 --> 00:01:04,099
But at this point, I think it's 
very important that I confess 

20
00:01:04,099 --> 00:01:06,000
myself to you guys. 
Listen. 

21
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,300
I can have a two-hour 
conversation with my friends, 

22
00:01:09,300 --> 00:01:12,000
multiple times a week. 
And yet, on this hand, I could 

23
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:13,800
probably count the amount of 
times. 

24
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,400
I've had a two-hour conversation
with the Lord God. 

25
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,600
So over to you now, do you find 
prayer heart? 

26
00:01:19,700 --> 00:01:22,100
Well, if you watch this video 
all the way through, and I'm 

27
00:01:22,100 --> 00:01:25,100
confident if you follow this 
method that I'm going to share 

28
00:01:25,100 --> 00:01:28,400
with you in a moment's time. 
You also will see tremendous 

29
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:30,700
blessing poured out upon your 
life. 

30
00:01:30,700 --> 00:01:35,100
So here's the axe method of 
praying a stands for adoration. 

31
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:38,600
Now my dear friends, you and I 
need to know something about 

32
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:40,600
God. 
God is not a butler. 

33
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:44,100
God is not a vending. 
Machine, when we bow in the 

34
00:01:44,100 --> 00:01:47,700
presence of God, we need to 
remember just who he is. 

35
00:01:47,900 --> 00:01:50,700
So before you ask anything of 
the Lord God you need to 

36
00:01:50,700 --> 00:01:54,600
remember, God is a God who 
dwells in unapproachable light. 

37
00:01:54,700 --> 00:01:59,000
He is a God who created the 
whole universe, the wind and the

38
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,100
waves obey him. 
He is the god who can raise the 

39
00:02:02,100 --> 00:02:03,900
dead. 
So what I like to do every 

40
00:02:03,900 --> 00:02:07,900
single morning when I pray is 
the first thing I do is I remind

41
00:02:07,900 --> 00:02:11,300
myself of the attributes of God 
of the mercy of God, the 

42
00:02:11,300 --> 00:02:14,000
Judgment of God. 
The Compassion of God, the wrath

43
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,900
of God, and I pray these things 
through, and then often are 

44
00:02:16,900 --> 00:02:20,600
preach the gospel to myself. 
So I let these truths sink into 

45
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:24,500
my heart and then I'm ready to 
come before the Lord God with a 

46
00:02:24,500 --> 00:02:27,100
heart of reverence. 
Now, before we go any further, I

47
00:02:27,100 --> 00:02:29,000
do think it's very important for
you. 

48
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,800
To remember this. 
You've got to be you, you've got

49
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,300
to be authentic the Lord God 
sees right through you. 

50
00:02:35,300 --> 00:02:37,700
And if you're trying to be 
elegant, if you're trying to be 

51
00:02:37,700 --> 00:02:41,700
like the pastor at your church, 
who has these big Grand words, 

52
00:02:41,700 --> 00:02:45,600
the Lord No, that's not you and 
God wants you to be you. 

53
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,500
That's how he made you. 
He gave you the personality, 

54
00:02:48,500 --> 00:02:50,900
you've got, and he wants you to 
be yourself. 

55
00:02:50,900 --> 00:02:54,600
The Bible actually says in 
Romans 8, verse 26, for we do 

56
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:58,500
not know what we should pray for
as we all, but the spirit 

57
00:02:58,500 --> 00:03:03,500
himself makes intercession for 
us with groanings, which cannot 

58
00:03:03,500 --> 00:03:05,500
be uttered. 
You know, you probably don't 

59
00:03:05,500 --> 00:03:09,100
realize this about me, but I 
struggled to get my words out 

60
00:03:09,100 --> 00:03:11,600
very often, they can be 
incoherent and people don't 

61
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,200
understand. 
Know what I'm saying, but that's

62
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:18,000
okay because that the Holy 
Spirit takes our prayers and he 

63
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:21,600
sort of filters that he sort of 
translate them and makes them 

64
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:25,200
into beautiful. 
Sweet Aromas, that smells so 

65
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,600
lovely before the nostrils of 
God. 

66
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,400
So you don't have to be elegant 
because the holy spirit will 

67
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,500
make your prayers elegant for 
you. 

68
00:03:32,500 --> 00:03:36,500
After we've praise the Lord God.
The next thing we want to do is 

69
00:03:36,500 --> 00:03:41,800
see is for confession 1, John 1,
verse 9 says this, if we confess

70
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:46,200
our sins He is faithful and just
to forgive us of our sins and to

71
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,800
cleanse us of all 
unrighteousness. 

72
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,600
So every single morning and 
sometimes the list is quite 

73
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:53,400
long. 
I'll remember the sins that I 

74
00:03:53,408 --> 00:03:54,800
did yesterday. 
Father. 

75
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:58,000
Forgive me for how jealous I was
of someone yesterday. 

76
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,200
Lord, forgive me, that I was 
quite proud. 

77
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,800
I was greedy. 
I was ungrateful, and I will 

78
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,600
remember all of these sins. 
And then after I've named these 

79
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,300
sins and confess them. 
I'll say cleanse me in the blood

80
00:04:08,300 --> 00:04:10,800
of the Lord Jesus Christ. 
And what I'm doing there is I'm 

81
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:14,900
telling God that I I know it is 
only by his work on the cross. 

82
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:19,700
It is only by Jesus Christ 
shedding his perfect blood on 

83
00:04:19,700 --> 00:04:21,800
that cross. 
That's the only way I can be 

84
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:24,200
forgiven. 
That's the only way I can ever 

85
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:26,900
gain a place in heaven and that 
brings us to my favorite one. 

86
00:04:26,900 --> 00:04:30,700
The letter T T is for 
Thanksgiving. 

87
00:04:30,700 --> 00:04:35,600
Philippians 4 verse 6 says this 
be anxious for nothing but in 

88
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:40,500
everything by prayer and 
supplication with Thanksgiving, 

89
00:04:40,500 --> 00:04:43,800
let your requests. 
Made known to God that you catch

90
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,100
what it said at the beginning. 
It said, be anxious for nothing 

91
00:04:47,100 --> 00:04:51,000
now between you and me, I am 
probably the biggest worrier you

92
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,100
will ever meet. 
I worry about everything and it 

93
00:04:54,100 --> 00:04:57,200
is quite crippling at times, but
here's why I love Thanksgiving 

94
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,600
so much because when I come 
before God and I start thanking 

95
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:02,400
him for everything, he's done in
my life. 

96
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,100
I find it very hard to be 
ungrateful. 

97
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,900
I find it very hard to worry. 
I find it very hard to be 

98
00:05:08,900 --> 00:05:12,000
concerned about the future 
because I just look at all. 

99
00:05:12,100 --> 00:05:14,400
All of the good things he's done
in my life already. 

100
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:18,000
Thank you, God, that I have a 
nine-month-old baby Samuel. 

101
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,200
Thank you. 
God, that I have the very book 

102
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,300
which is inspired by you the 
Bible. 

103
00:05:22,300 --> 00:05:24,500
Thank you. 
Lord, God for this ministry. 

104
00:05:24,500 --> 00:05:27,400
Thank you, Lord. 
God that I have health today. 

105
00:05:27,500 --> 00:05:30,500
I'm breathing today. 
I can see today, I'm able to 

106
00:05:30,500 --> 00:05:33,100
walk today. 
So I recommend this just in your

107
00:05:33,100 --> 00:05:34,700
own. 
Life will be different in every 

108
00:05:34,700 --> 00:05:37,200
single person's life, but 
there's always something to give

109
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,700
thanks for. 
And the Bible says, in the last 

110
00:05:39,700 --> 00:05:42,400
days, people will be on. 
Fold. 

111
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,400
And that should never be said 
about God's church because we 

112
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:49,200
have so much to smile about if 
it not be this, that our names 

113
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:53,400
are written in heaven. 
So A is for adoration, C is for 

114
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,100
confession, T is for 
Thanksgiving. 

115
00:05:56,300 --> 00:05:59,900
An S is for supplication. 
Well, that's an old-fashioned 

116
00:05:59,900 --> 00:06:02,000
word Joe. 
What does supplication mean it 

117
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:03,800
comes from that meaning to 
supply? 

118
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:08,000
You know, that verse that says 
he will supply your every need. 

119
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:09,800
And that's what we do. 
Every day. 

120
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:14,100
We bring our requests. 
Our knees are once before the 

121
00:06:14,100 --> 00:06:16,400
Lord God and say, would you 
answer this prayer? 

122
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,600
Heavenly Father, some Christians
feel a little bit sensitive 

123
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,100
about this and they say, don't 
give God a shopping list. 

124
00:06:22,100 --> 00:06:24,900
Well, I think God doesn't mind 
it when we bring our shopping 

125
00:06:24,900 --> 00:06:27,000
list to him after all. 
He's The God. 

126
00:06:27,100 --> 00:06:29,200
Who owns the cattle of a 
Thousand Hills. 

127
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,300
The Bible says, you have not 
because you ask not. 

128
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,100
So at the moment, me and Emma 
were praying that we would be 

129
00:06:35,100 --> 00:06:38,600
able to move house and I say 
that every single day, every 

130
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,100
day. 
I ask the Lord that he would let

131
00:06:41,100 --> 00:06:41,900
me win us. 
All. 

132
00:06:42,100 --> 00:06:45,200
All for him everyday. 
I pray that the Lord would bless

133
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:49,200
this ministry and did you know 
this every single day I pray for

134
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:53,100
you watching this video. 
Now that God would make you into

135
00:06:53,100 --> 00:06:56,500
a wonderful woman of God, that 
God would make you into a 

136
00:06:56,500 --> 00:07:00,000
wonderful man of God blowing out
the Lord Jesus Christ. 

137
00:07:00,100 --> 00:07:01,900
A godly people. 
One last thing. 

138
00:07:01,900 --> 00:07:03,700
