Prayer and Humility
Feb 4, 2026 • Pastor Ed Pope
This document synthesizes theological insights and scriptural analysis regarding the relationship between prayer and humility. The central thesis is that effective prayer requires a paradoxical blend of bold intercession and profound humility, underpinned by an alignment with the divine will. Using Genesis 18, Luke 18, and 1 John 5 as primary frameworks, the analysis demonstrates that boldness in prayer is rooted in God’s character and promises, while humility is rooted in a correct assessment of the human condition.
