Prayer Meeting
Prayer Meetings are assemblies of the people of God for worship of that peculiar kind which consists in each one expressing their desire before the Lord.
​
“Again, truly I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything they ask for, it will be done for them by my Father in Heaven. For where two or three gather in my name, there I am with them.” ~ Matthew 18:19-20
Meeting Fridays at 6:00pm in the LOFT Upstairs.
WHY ATTEND A REGULAR PRAYER MEETING?
-
Because the prayer meeting offers a platform to teach the brethren how to pray and how to pray with Holy Scripture.
-
Because believers naturally pray. They cry out to their Lord and beseech Him earnestly. But praying takes focus, skill, and diligence.
-
Because the prayer meeting gives all believers present an opportunity to praise God together. The One most worthy of praise is God in all His splendor. He alone is God and He alone deserves incessant praise. When believers gather, they can present prayers of praise, prayers of thanksgiving, prayers of worship, and heartfelt cries of jubilation together. Part of praying to God is praising God for who He is, His perfect character, His eternal power, and His glorious gospel.
-
Because the prayer meeting allows believers to grow in deeper fellowship and relationship with one another. When believers gather to pray, intimacy is created. Coming together on a consistent basis to cry out to the Lord enhances fellowship and heartfelt love for one another.
-
Because the prayer meeting welcomes prayers and praises so that more people can praise God for answered prayer. In the prayer meeting, believers can present prayer requests, share struggles, ask for intercessions, and boast in the Lord for His faithfulness in answering particular prayer requests. These all prompt corporate prayer.
-
Because the Prayer Meeting equips the people of God to greater and more fervent individual prayer as a result of the corporate prayer meetings.
