Prayer Meetings
Alternate Wednesdays
“If every God fearing family, in every God honouring church around the world took the congregational prayer meeting seriously, what impact would that have around the globe? I believe that Scripture and Church history teaches us that the future of our children, our family, our church, and our nations depends on God’s people storming the mercy seat together. Prayer is the normal means that God uses to shower His Heavenly blessings upon the earth…. We customarily record our appointments on our calendar. Will you not mark your church prayer meetings on your calendar as engagements of the highest priority for your entire family? Will you not prepare for them and try to bring a friend or two with you? Let us treasure prayer meetings. Let us engage in it with all our heart, remembering that Revivals usually begin with prayer meetings.”
Dr. Joel Beeke
"You do not have, because you do not ask God." (James 4:2) These are some of the most simple, and sobering words in the Bible. There are blessings that could be ours, there are wonderful things that God would be willing to do in our lives, but we miss out on them simply because we do not ask Him.
As Christians we know that:
- God loves us (John 15:12-13)
- God hears our prayers, (Psalm 116:1-2)
- God values those prayers (Revelation 5:8)
- and God answers them! (Psalm 34:4-6)
We meet every second Wednesday trusting in these promises to pray for our church, our community and our world. We don't want our church or town to miss out on any blessings God wants to graciously give to us, we don't want to settle for second best. These are some of the most special meetings in the Church, where we sense God's presence and learn to see his hand at work in our lives.
You are very welcome to join with us.
