Hindered Prayers | Isaiah 59:2 | Anchor Baptist Church

Introduction: Prayer is one of the greatest privileges given to the child of God. Through prayer, we can approach the throne of grace, bring our burdens before the Lord, seek wisdom, intercede for others, and find strength for the Christian life.

These Things that Will Hinder Prayers: 

I. Unconfessed Sin– Isaiah 59:1–2

II. Unforgiveness– Mark 11:24–26

III. Wrong Motives– James 4:1–3

IV. Unbelief– James 1:5–8 

V. Disobedience to God’s Word– Proverbs 28:9

VI. Discord in the Home– 1 Peter 3:7

VII. Pride and Self Righteousness– Luke 18:9–14 

Conclusion: We must remove the hindrances that are keeping God from answering our prayers. Let’s examine our hearts and draw near to God in the way Scripture teaches. 

Anchor Baptist Church is an independent, Bible-Believing Baptist church in Kingsville, Texas, committed to biblical preaching, teaching, evangelism, and discipleship.
