What Makes Your Prayer Powerful? (Praying From The New Covenant 2) Series

Contributed by Christabel N. Onuoha on May 6, 2023

What makes the believer’s prayer powerful is not the verboseness of the speech, not the gyration or energy or loudness in our voice, it’s not even the number of scriptures we quote when we pray. Paul says, “for I am not ashamed of the GOSPEL of Christ: for it is the POWER of God unto salvation…”

And this is a perspective issue, it’s a ...read more
