A church in unity is a beautiful thing
It’s more than just sticking together like peaut butter and jelly
we need to learn to be peas in a pod
in a prayer pod
because a family that prays together stays together
and so much more...
God’s people have been praying together since the beginning of time...
Genesis
Genesis 4:26
Corporate prayer or praying together is a valuable work that every believer can participate in… and it will help us to grow in our faith
But doesn’t the Bible say not to pray in public?
Public prayers should be authentic, real, and from the heart.
Our prayers are to be God-focused, not an attempt to convince people of our righteousness.
After all, even public prayers are for the primary purpose of speaking to God, not men.
Corporate prayer or praying together is a valuable work that every believer can participate in… and it will help us to grow in our faith
Praying together teaches us about prayer...
Luke 1:
Jesus taught by example
Matt 6:
and other times by praying with them
we learn about how to talk to God in prayer
we can learn about desires & repentance
Grow in confidence as we pray with others
“Plain and simple, the best way to learn to pray is to pray with others, especially those who have had their prayers shaped by the Scriptures.
Listen for those around you who are acquainted enough with God in prayer as to regularly draw others into communion with him through their praises and petitions.
Give careful attention to their approach to God, the kinds of things they thank him for and ask him for, and how they keep others in mind in the corporate setting.
And even beyond what we’re conscious of, we’re being shaped in profound ways for good as we join our hearts with others in prayer.”
What types of group prayers are necessary?
Prayer chain… over a specific need
whole church prayer
household prayer
together:
over meals, studies, safety,
As we learn to pray with others we will grow in confidence in our personal prayers
AND in our ability to pray with others or strangers
2. praying together creates godly unity
help believers to get to know one another better
help believers to get to know Jesus better
after Jesus ascended into heaven
gathered in upper room
they came together in unity but were encouraged and built up by greater unity through prayer
I believe that they got answers that they wouldn’t have otherwise got
Holy Spirit came upon them like a mighty rushing wind
and then they began to change the world
when we unify in Christ’s Name great things will happen...
pray in unity for healing
Pray in unity for repentance...
3. Corporate or group prayer allows us to encourage other believers
By praying together for common needs, struggles, and times of celebration, we are able to encourage the other believers in our lives and motivate one another on to love and good deeds.
praying for non-believers has the opportunity to draw them to Jesus
praying together is an important part of our spiritual health
teaches us about prayer and builds confidence in our prayer life
communication with God
creates unity among believers
when godly unity happens it is often attached to the supernatural
amazing things happen when God’s people come together in unity
encourages other believers and draws non-believers
so why don’t we just pray together?
those who are able and feel led to will you join me in prayer on the altar?
