S4 Ep45 Expectation for Prayer in the Present Age

We talk a little more about death and then look at David’s Song of Deliverance in 2 Samuel 22. What can we learn about prayer from comparing our experiences to David's? Right away we should understand that we do not have David's calling nor his promises, yet we are justified by grace as he was. When we look at the life of David we can see areas that do directly teach us, but we most definitely see things that have nothing to do with the current calling and cannot be equated with our promises in the current dispensation. We most assuredly are called on to pray in our day, but what should be expect from the Lord and how do our expectations differ from other families of God? What is the nature of answered prayer in the dispensation of the grace of God with a heavenly hope before us?
