Pray For One Another
Josh had an incredible message for us this morning on Praying for One Another. This week we are not doing discussion questions but would encourage you to spend some time with your group, intentionally praying over each other. That can be in person, or via text/group chat as Josh suggested!
Three Reasons Why We Pray
1. Intimacy
Matthew 6:6 NLTBut when you pray, go away by yourself, shut the door behind you, and pray to your Father in private. Then your Father, who sees everything, will reward you.
2. Outcomes
Matthew 6:6 NLTBut when you pray, go away by yourself, shut the door behind you, and pray to your Father in private. Then your Father, who sees everything, will reward you.”
Matthew 26:39 NLTHe went on a little farther and bowed with his face to the ground, praying, “My Father! If it is possible, let this cup of suffering be taken away from me. Yet I want your will to be done, not mine.”
3. Heart change
Matthew 5:44 NIVBut I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you
Your prayer may or may not change someone else, but it always changes you.
