Praying to the God Who Hears (Matt 6:5-6) - Sermon on the Mount

Sun, 24 Jan 2021 12:00:00 +0000

We worship the God who sees us and knows us often better than we know ourselves. Everything we do, say, and even think is seen by Him and matters to Him. In the present section of the Sermon on the Mount, our motives are in view. When it comes to prayer, do we pray because it brings us closer to Him, or do we pray in order to impress others? Join us as Pastor Ryan Ross preaches on prayer and the God who hears us and knows what we need even before we ask Him, in Matthew 6:5-6.
