Prayer Ministry Programme
Prayer is a central Ministry of the church, the essential ingredient that enables the effectiveness of all ministries and individual believers. Without prayer the church becomes an Organisation like any other rather than a living Organism. Prayer is the air that Christians breathe. It is a difficult discipline for most believers and need to be cultivated with the help of the Holy Spirit. Jesus lived a life of prayer which his disciples wanted to emulate when they asked him to teach them to pray Matt 6 v 9 -13; Luke 11 v 2-4
The importance of the centrality of Prayer to all ministries in every church cannot be over emphasised. Throughout the Old & NT prayer was offered before major events and that Bible contain some major examples of prayer, see Exodus 32 v9-14; Ps 51; 2 Kings 19 v 14-19; Ps 139; Neh. 1 v 2v9; 2 Chron. 6v12 – 42; Luke 22 v 39 v 46.
