Prayer Night

Wow, what an encouraging and wonderful night of prayer.  It is truly awesome to see how God can do some amazing things through prayer.  We might not be able to see everything, but you could see how hearts and minds were touched.

I would challenge you to be at church when we have another night of Prayer.  Trust me, it will be sooner than later!

Edwards Bounds (Great Theological Writer) said the following, "Without prayer, a church is like a body without spirit; it is a dead, inanimate thing.  A church with prayer in it, has God in it. When prayer is set aside, God is outlawed.  When prayer becomes an unfamiliar exercise, then God Himself is a stranger there.  As God's house is a house of prayer, the Divine intention is that people should leave their homes and go to meet Him in His own house. The building is set apart for prayer especially, and as God has made special promise to meet His people there, it is their duty to go there, and for that specific end. Prayer should be the chief attraction for all spiritually minded church-goers.
