Prayer For Training Meeting
Posted by admin
Some ideas of things to pray for:-
• Begin by reminding yourself that God is here, Jesus promises to be present whenever his children meet together - '...when two or three of you are together because of me, you can be sure that I'll be there'. (The Message, Matthew 18:20)
• Pray for the worship. Pray for your musicians, and technical people involved, such as those on the PA and screens if you have them. Pray that they will be inspired, encouraged and guided by God's Spirit. Especially pray for the worship leader - there is much to think about when leading a congregation in praise and song, pray that they will be able to worship God and hear from him as they lead others.
• Pray for your guests at the meeting. It could be there are a number of people in your meeting yet to make a decision to follow Christ. Be mindful of them and 'pray continually' (1 Thessalonians 5:17, NIV) for them. If you are involved leading the service, remember to monitor your language - avoid cliches and explain religious terminology if you need to use it.
• Pray for 'all the saints' e.g. those who have a personal faith in Christ. Pray that their hearts will be uplifted, that they will meet with God, and that their walk will be deepened with Him.
• Pray for the speaker. It may be appropriate to gather around them and lay hands on them, if they feel comfortable with this. Pray for inspiration, clarity of thought and communication, and that they will be able to deliver everything that God has laid on their heart to speak about.
• Finally, pray for unity. 'How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in unity!' (Psalm 133:1. NIV). This is the will of God - that we are one as he is one. So much of church history is riddled with divisions and factions. Pray for unity of heart, vision and purpose in the life of your church.
