Sermon Outline:
James 1:5–8 (NKJV)
5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.
6 But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind.
7 For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord;
8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.
I What we should pray for?
II Whom we shall ask for wisdom?
III How we should pray?
Faith
Faith is a living, daring confidence in God’s grace. It is so sure and certain that a man could stake his life on it a thousand times.
Martin Luther
Faith is knowledge passing into conviction, and it is conviction passing into confidence.
John Murray
