All in Praying Together

Praying Alone is Magnificent, but together Divine

One of the great benefits of church is being together before God with those who seek salvation just as we do, but another powerful attribute is the strength that comes from joint prayer. I am not talking about the recitation of a common prayer, although that is powerful as well, but I am speaking of two or more believers praying in their own thoughts and words for the same thing. If you have ever recited the Lord’s Prayer then you have participated in common prayer, but what about joint prayer with another believer? Have you ever prayed separately, together, for the same cause?

Together We Pray, A Flavorful Stew of Joint Prayer

Are we alone with God when we pray or is it good to pray with others? Well, it is important to pray alone, and in secret, because that provides us with the degree of intimacy that our soul’s relationship with God longs for, but are there times when we need to pray together with others? The answer to this question regarding praying with others is a resounding “Yes!” There is power in joining together in certain times of prayer, whether we are physically together, or praying in unison from the far corners of the earth. A common cause prayed for by many carries much weight before the throne of God.
