Inhaltsangabe

Praying together is a privilege and an opportunity to enter into the presence of God in a unique and powerful way. Yet the truth is that prayer meetings aren’t at the top of most Christians’ lists of favorite things to do. Praying together is a lost art for many Christians today. Author and pastor James Banks makes the case for praying together as a means of enjoying God’s blessings and pleasing Him. “Amazing things happen when God’s people pray. Our heavenly Father invites us into the wonder of watching Him work. It is what He has promised to do.”

Von der hinteren Coverseite

 

If God invited you to meet with Him, would you take Him up on it?
 
That’s exactly what He’s done.
 
Jesus has promised that “where two or three come together in my name, there am I with  them” (Matthew 18:20). Praying together is an opportunity to enter into the presence of God in a unique and powerful way. But for many, praying together has become a lost art. Prayer meetings aren’t at the top of most Christians’ lists of favorite things to do.
 
Author James Banks makes the case for praying together:
 
“The more I look through the Old and New Testaments, the more I discover the unique blessings God offers His people when they pray together. Whenever something significant happens in the history of the church, people are praying together. The purpose of this book is to encourage Christians to rediscover the blessings of a healthy practice of praying together.”
           
Filled with biblical encouragement and practical insights, The Lost Art of Praying Together will help you make united prayer a priority—in your church, your family, and wherever God’s people are gathered together. Reflection questions make this book ideal for personal or group study, and appendices offer practical tips for organizing prayer groups. Amazing things happen when God’s people pray!
 
“James Banks has unearthed some long-overlooked gems from God's Word and history about why praying together matters.  Here’s help for churches, prayer groups and families who hunger to see what God can do when His people pray.  The Lost Art of Praying Together is a timely and powerful work.” 
           -- Cheri Fuller, author of thirty books, including When Mothers Pray
