Pray with a Friend...

Today's Scripture:

If two of you on earth agree about something and pray for it, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven.

Matthew 18:19



Jesus knew the end of his time on earth was near. With time running out there were a few important things he wanted the disciples to know and to understand without a doubt. The disciples had witnessed many miracles. They were there when a blind man was healed and made to see again. They were the ones who brought Jesus the five loaves of bread and five fish that fed more than five thousand people. It was important for the disciples to understand that the power of healing and the miracle of the loaves and fishes came from God, who is always present. God's power would not disappear when Jesus returned to heaven.

It is important for you, too, to understand this concept. What you and your friends agree on in prayer will carry the authority of God. God's authority can defeat poverty, drugs, and gangs. It can bring healing and change in the lives of people at your school, your work, you city, and in your community however big or small.

There is strength in numbers, especially when a number of Christians choose to pray together.

Sharing your prayers with another person is different from praying to God by yourself. By praying with a friend or a group of friends, you gain one another's strength and resolve.

Praying with friends reinforces your belief that god will answer you when you pray. Praying together also unifies you and your friends. As a unified group of believers, you and your friends will be more effective at sharing God's love.

Selah people' and friends when you come together to pray, it is like a holy army protecting your school, your work, your neighborhood, and your family. Contact some friends today call them, text or email them and plan to pray together united. Lift a burden up or the names on our prayer list or yours' and join the power of praying in numbers to our mighty Lord and Savior.

"Peace be with you and you choose to unite and pray with a friend. Remember you are not alone and we are called share our faith as well as His Hope!"
