It highlights that prayerlessness stems from pride and the misconception that one can manage without God, leading to spiritual drifting. Additionally, it challenges the notion of easy grace and emphasizes the necessity of fasting to overcome fleshly desires, countering the idea that Christianity is solely about personal happiness and comfort. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CONTENT ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Prayerlessness is the greatest form of pride. If you're not praying it's not because you're busy, it's because you are proud, because you think you can do it without God. If you don't pray, you stray. What you must understand is that in order to overcome the lust of the flesh, you have to constantly and regularly subject your flesh to fasting. Fasting is not popular, especially in the Christian circles today that have a greasy grace, a gospel message that focuses so much that God did everything. You don't need to sacrifice, you don't need to deny your flesh, you don't need to lay yourself on the altar. Jesus did everything. All you got to do is just eat. It's all about you. Jesus is about you. You just need to be happy and anything that makes you not happy, it's not from Jesus. That doctrine is demonic because Christianity has never been about you, it's about it's been about Jesus. ======================================================================== Video: https://sermonindex2.b-cdn.net/V6bMqWYzo6I.mp4 Source: https://sermonindex.net/speakers/vlad-savchuk/prayerlessness-is-the-greatest-form-of-pride/ ========================================================================
