Corporate Prayer

Matthew 18:19-20

"Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.”

When trouble looms around us the first thing we should do is pray and there is nothing more powerful than corporate prayer, the prayer of agreement, which is when two or more people come together and agree with God's Word that a specific thing will be done. Being together in unity under the bond of the blood of Jesus enables a puissant advocate, Holy Spirit, to move in a mighty way causing miracles that would not happen if we prayed by ourselves.

A wonderful example from Scripture is 2 Chronicles 20:1-30 when Jehoshaphat found out that a vast army was coming against him from Edom, he inquired of the Lord and called a fast for all of Judah and the people came together to seek after God and support their king in prayer. God answered through a prophet giving him the strategy needed to conquer the army, which, by the way, the Lord dealt with by having them turn against each other in massive confusion and Judah's army triumphed without shooting a single arrow or drawing a sword and without suffering casualty.



Another example from Acts 12:5-18 is when Peter was in prison and the church prayed earnestly together with one like mind for Peter. Peter being set free went to tell the church but the servant girl, Rhoda, was overjoyed that she left Peter outside knocking on the door and as she explained to the others that he was outside they disbelieved her saying it was only his angel. 

How often do we doubt God and the power He gives to us through prayer? How often do we allow the enemy to deceive us through unbelief? These examples should encourage us to gather together on a regular basis to pray earnestly for the many concerns that we see in our lives, the lives of our family, friends and the great needs and concerns of our community and country. God does answer prayer we need only to seek His face, pray, trust and obey. 

Trusting in Him!

Conservative Leadership Election Today
The Conservative Party of Canada will announce its new leader today, shortly after 5PM EST. This leadership election is a critical one and whoever wins this election has a good chance of being Canada's next Prime Minister. Please join in prayer for the election today, particularly as in-person voting takes place throughout the day.
Please pray that God would put RIDICULOUS favour on the candidate who will do the most good for Canada if elected. Pray that the Holy Spirit would give voters wisdom and discernment about how to vote and that social conservative voters would use this opportunity to send a strong and clear message that impacts the CPC's policy for years to come. Please pray against any voter fraud, technical delays, counting errors, etc. and that the election and announcement would run smoothly. Please pray for a spirit of unity amongst candidates, the CPC caucus, and all party members as the results are announced and in the coming weeks and months of transitioning to the new party leader. Let's cover the new party leader in prayer and believe for godly counsel, divine wisdom, and outrageous encounters with Holy Spirit. Let's pray for an outpouring of Holy Spirit in the Conservative Party of Canada.
