“Making A House A Home”

Categories: PRAYER, WORSHIP
I’m wondering whom I would go to, a priest or preacher, to pray about my new house that I am getting.

Sincerely,
Mr. Buyer

Dear Mr. Buyer,

If you are living a faithful life, you should do the praying.  If you aren’t living a faithful life… your house won’t matter one way or the other (Mk 8:36-37).  God says that He clearly hears the prayers of the righteous (Pr 15:29), and He says those prayers make a difference (Jas 5:16-18).  The term ‘priest’ is a Bible word that is often misused by many false churches.  There is no such thing as special priests in the church.  In Christ, all christians are priests (1 Pet 2:9).  There is no need to seek some special religious leader to receive the blessing of prayer to God.  If you aren’t a christian or if you need a faithful church to gather with – e-mail us at askyourpreacher@mvchurchofchrist.org, and we would be happy to help you in whatever way possible.
