Most of the modern church has become passive in their praying. We’ve grown accustomed to the enemy’s garbage scattered about our lives and dead elephant carcasses hidden beneath our floorboards—not realizing we are to stand in prayer against such things. Thus we offer a thousand excuses as to why our prayers lack oomph. Yes, prayer is hard work, but Christ has made a way unto the Throne of Grace, where the asking is made and the answers found. In this sermon, Pastor Eric Ludy exhorts us to not to merely “pray” but to PRAY with the authority given to us to remove the busted pianos, rat-infested wardrobes, rotted dressers, and dead elephant carcasses from our lives. If you have grown lax in your prayer life, this sermon will reveal what the action of real praying looks like.
