Prayer isn’t meant to be passive. In this powerful message, we begin a new series on prayer by asking a simple but confronting question Jesus Himself asked: “What do you want?” This teaching challenges believers to move beyond timid, vague prayers and step into bold, persistent faith that believes God hears, responds, and moves.

As we step into a season of renewal, this message reminds us that prayer is often conditional—God has a part, and we have a part. Through biblical examples and practical insight, we’re invited to close unfinished doors, surrender fully, and pray with urgency, faith, and expectation.

In this sermon you’ll discover:

- Why renewal often requires persistence, not passivity

- How faith is activated through hearing, believing, speaking, and acting

- What Jesus taught about asking, seeking, and knocking in prayer

- How opposition can turn into favor when faith refuses to be silenced

This message will stir your faith, strengthen your prayer life, and encourage you to boldly ask God for what you truly desire—trusting that He is faithful to respond.
