Prayer
This prayer series invites us to begin the year by aligning our hearts with God and deepening our relationship with Him through intentional, courageous and communal prayer. We open with a call to intercessory prayer, urging each believer to lift up “Your One” and recognize our shared partnership with God in reaching people He loves. We then move to everyday prayer, reminding the church that nothing is too small for God’s care and that bringing daily concerns to Him builds intimacy and peace in our lives. In week three, we explore courageous prayer, inspired by both Scripture and the example of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., learning that bold, faith-filled prayer positions us for healing, wholeness and Kingdom impact. Finally, we conclude with corporate prayer, embracing Jesus’ promise that when we gather in unity and agreement, He is present among us and releases His power through the collective prayers of His people. Together, these messages call the church to become a praying family—one that intercedes for others, seeks God in the ordinary and the impossible, and stands united in prayer so the world may see Christ in us.
