Moments With God: Adoration | Kate Middleton

July 05, 2020 10:30 - 29 minutes - 27.5 MB

Week 2 in our 'Moments with God' series is all about adoration and worship. But why does Jesus kick off his model for prayer (what we call the Lord's Prayer) with what seems like a contradiction? How and why should understanding the way prayer bridges the gap between earth and heaven draw us into such wonder and worship for the God who made this possible?  Connect with us on social www.instagram.com/zeochurch www.twitter.com/zeochurch www.facebook.com/zeochurch

Dissonance is what we experience when there’s a clash between what’s in our mind and reality - whether it’s a hope or a dream or a story spoken over us, or something we believe should be possible or happening - when we are not what we hope to be, or when life throws up something we never wanted to be part of our story, or something that doesn’t seem to fit with God's story for us or just doesn't seem to make sense. It's uncomfortable and triggers unpleasant emotions like anxiety and stress. ...

Why should we be passionate pursuers of the presence of God above all else, and what might happen when we do?
