How to Pray Through Your Problems

  1. Pray in Jesus Name -V 13-14 “in the name of the Lord”
    suffering means to suffer misfortune, to be in distress, (physical or emotional) When under tension, you have two choices - swear or prayer

  2. Pray in faith - V 15-16. While it is always in God’s POWER to heal, but it is not always  His PURPOSE.  (We don’t always understand his purpose)

  3. Pray earnestly -V16-18  earnestly is also translated fervently. Strength in prayer is better than length in prayer

  4. Pray for forgiveness- V 19-20
