It was good to join our brothers and sisters in Christ in prayer. I believe in personal prayer and devotion, but I also believe we should meet fellow believers to have corporate prayer. Such prayer meetings are commanded by our Lord. These prayer meetings unify and edify us and strengthens the bond among us.
This morning my wife and I attended the usual Thursday Morning Prayer meeting. We were thoroughly blessed as we shared worship, praise and prayer together. It is worth getting up earlier than usual to be present for the global prayer meeting. We are part of the chain of prayer meetings around the Salvation Army world.
When we respond to the call to intercession we come to learn that the sufferings of the present time cannot compare to the joy that will come as God’s purposes unfold. We learn to trust God. Intercessors participate in God’s plan to engage humanity to share in divine life. We are involved in spiritual battle against the forces that seek to destroy God’s plans. Let us keep praying and never give up
