Praying Together With Others Series

3. There is strength in numbers:

“One can put a thousand to flight, and two can put ten thousand to flight.” (Deut. 32:30).

• When we pray together, our prayer power isn’t only added, it is multiplied!

ILLUSTRATION:

Five young American college students were spending a Sunday in London, so they went to hear the famed Charles Spurgeon preach. While waiting for the doors to open, the students were greeted by a man who asked, "Gentlemen, let me show you around. Would you like to see the heating plant of this church?" They were not particularly interested, for it was a hot day in July. Not wanting to offend the stranger, they agreed. They were taken down a stairway, a door was quietly opened, and their guide whispered, "This is our heating plant." Surprised, the students saw 700 people bowed in prayer, seeking a blessing on the service that was soon to begin in the auditorium above. Softly closing the door, the gentleman then introduced himself. It was none other than Charles Spurgeon.

STORY: Of attending the revival prayer meeting at CLA, starting one at BF, then REVIVAL!

CLOSING CHALLENGE:

Because we have been given this amazing gift, let us not neglect praying together.

“So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it.” (Hebrews 4:16).

• Break up into small groups of 3-4 people, and take the time to pray for one another.

• Ask the people in your group: What is your biggest challenge that you are facing right now that you need the Lord to help you with?
