Power Hour - 'Just Grace'

Power Hour is about applying God's Word in prayer.  Prayer is talking to God believing that He is able to do everything He says in the Bible.  
This week, we concentrate on the undeserved Grace each person has been given when Christ died on the Cross, paying the ultimate price.  Yet, Christ Rose again.  It's this whole subject people have so much difficulty in accepting.  How can Grace exist? 
People believe in their mobiles because they can hold them, surf the web, speak, post videos, yet apart from the engineers and those who made the phones, we don't really know what it took to make them.  We just trust they work.
In a related way, Christians put their trust in a God we can't see and believe in a Saviour we have not met in the flesh.  It's because of this Faith in what we can't see that brings us closer to God, yet because of our humanity, we struggle.  All we can say is that we are sinners saved by Grace. There is nothing we can do to earn this Grace.  It has been given freely by a living loving God and is available to all.  
When Christians start trusting, praying and living with Christ at the centre of their lives, that's when the Grace that is available to all starts becoming more visible and real to all.  
Ephesians 2:8-9
For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast.
The first step is prayer.

Power Hour - The Harvest Is Plentiful, The Workers Are Few

Applying God's Word in Prayer.
We take as tonight's  main scripture 
Matthew 9:37-38
37 Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. 38 Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”
The lives of  believers, actions and words and readiness to be bold to make sure that the Gospel is seen, heard and experienced all sow seeds.  As well as sowing, believers can reap.  The question is are believers ready to step up?
Mark 16:15
He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.
As part of the program, we feature two testimonies
