Elijah's expectation of rain after the great fire-miracle at Mount Carmel (1st kings 18), is a good example of having an expectant attitude in prayer. But the story also warns us against being presumptuous in prayer.

The reason Christians worship on Sundays is because Christ was raised on the first day of the week. In that sense, every Sunday is Resurrection Sunday. If you want to read a long development of the importance of Christ's resurrection, read 1st Corinthians chapter 15. The Gospels tell us the facts of Christ's resurrection; the apostle Paul develops those facts in one of his longest chapters.
