The Way of Prayer
What role does prayer play in your life? If you are a Christian, are you surprised by the amount of difficulties and trials you encounter? Perhaps when you trusted in Jesus for your salvation, you were under the impression that all the negative aspects of life would disappear. There is hope! As Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones proclaims, Jesus, promised that along with the increase in trials, we will have His power and protection to persevere through difficult times. The power and protection is accesed through prayer. We find this in the letter of Hebrews as an example to encourage believers to pray through trials. The Doctor provides three biblical characteristics that should be consistent in how we pray. First, we must pray with confidence in God’s ability to handle our requests. Second, we must have a clear conscience since prayer is entering into God’s presence. Third, Christians must be sincere with God, it is no use holding back 1% of ourselves since we must be willing to submit all of ourselves to Him and His sovereign plan. Listen as Lloyd-Jones helps the believer apply these characteristics of godly prayer to their lives. The only way to stand firm in persecution is to look to Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith!
Centenary of the Opening of Westminister Chapel
Dr Lloyd-Jones himself tells us the history of Westminster Chapel; and its pastors; the Church he pastored and loved for nearly 30 years. This was given in the Chapel in 1965 to celebrate the centenary of its opening. It is not really an 'itinerant sermon'; but 'outside' of MLJ's normal preaching at Westminster Chapter.
Peter in Prison
The world is increasingly hostile to Christian beliefs. With all the difficulties facing the church today, how will it withstand the forces against it? In this sermon, Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones draws from the biblical account of Peter’s miraculous release from prison and encourages believers to unite together in prayer in order to see God work in the world and His church. “A characteristic of the church we must never forget,” The Doctor says, “is that we are one.” When Peter was put in prison, the entire church came together to pray for him. If you have become discouraged in your prayers because you do not see them being answered, you are not alone! The early church endured similar tests of faith. And yet, although they did not recognize it at the time, God was working behind the scenes to answer their prayers for Peter. Yet, when they were told by their servant girl that he had been miracously released and was at the front door, they did not believe her! Are we like them, or do we believe in God’s power to fully answer our prayers? Listen as The Doctor helps us understand why prayer in the community of a church is so important, and how we can trust God when we don't see Him acting.
About Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones (1899-1981) was a Welsh evangelical minister who preached and taught in the Reformed tradition. His principal ministry was at Westminster Chapel, in central London, from 1939-1968, where he delivered multi-year expositions on books of the bible such as Romans, Ephesians and the Gospel of John. In addition to the MLJ Trust’s collection of 1,600 of these sermons in audio format, most of these great sermon series are available in book form (including a 14 volume collection of the Romans sermons), as are other series such as "Spiritual Depression", "Studies in the Sermon on the Mount" and "Great Biblical Doctrines". He is considered by many evangelical leaders today to be an authority on biblical truth and the sufficiency of Scripture.
