Acts 12:11 And when Peter was come to himself, he said, Now I know of a surety, that the Lord hath sent his angel, and hath delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from all the expectation of the people of the Jews. 12 And when he had considered the thing, he came to the house of Mary the mother of John, whose surname was Mark; where many were gathered together praying.
Since the beginning of the early church, believers have been gathering together to pray. Corporate prayer has always been a vital part of the church. We strongly believe this is vital for our church as well. Without God going before us and doing the work, our labor will be in vain (Psalm 127:1). So little will really get accomplished without earnest prayer. Don't be deceived - sometimes it will appear that the arm of flesh is making strides and things are getting done, but in the end, little lasting fruit will come from our efforts alone.
For this reason, we are very intentional about corporate prayer. You can pray alone at home, in your car or on a nice walk, but there is great benefit to prayer with your brothers and sisters in Christ. Don't miss out on one of the most important times of your week!
We pray for each other, our families, our community, our city, our country and our world. We pray in adoration and thanksgiving to God, confession and brokenness over our sin, and supplications and petitions for others. We pray for strength, a bold witness, and open doors. We praise God for victories and answered prayer. We ask for God's wisdom and direction. Join us this week for some of the most important time we spend together as a church!
