26 September 2015

These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.(Acts 1:14)

The early church had unity in prayer and supplication,....what were they praying for? Was it not for the promise of the Holy Spirit, that Christ had promised them? They had to be preserved from their enemies, prepared n abundantly qualified to continue preaching the Gospel, remain faithful to their Lord till the end. They would have prayed for hearts to be comforted, abundance of unity n love! The most powerful part is they had unanimous requests to God!! A thing we learn from them; unanimous requests of prayer (possibly not for their material benefits but for fulfilling their Master's call on their lives!!) 

We all have experienced the power of such prayers! I'm certain most have witnessed how God answers us when prayed with one accord. As the end times are near let us us continue to encourage one and all to come together to sit at the feet of Christ and pray with one accord to finish our   Master's great calling! Let us pray with one accord for all nations and tribes, pray that churches and ministers will be effective carriers of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, pray that our character and mindset will truly reflect Christ !!
