Jesus set the perfect example of obedience in prayer.
Although His day was filled from morning to night with many pressures and responsibilities -- addressing crowds, healing the sick, granting private interviews, traveling, and training His disciples -- He made prayer a top priority. If Jesus was so dependent upon His fellowship in prayer alone with His Father, how much more you and I should spend time alone with God.
Prayer at Christian Fellowship Church is not something we do; it defines who we are. We are a praying people. Through prayer, we grow in our personal relationship with God. Through intercession, we partner with God to establish His heart, His will and His purposes in our families, our church, our city, our nation and the world. Prayer is engaging, exciting and rewarding.
Wherever you are in your personal prayer life, God wants to take you higher.
Someone has wisely said, "Satan laughs at our toiling, mocks our wisdom, but trembles when he sees the weakest saint on his knees." Prayer is God's appointed way of doing God's work.
God made you to have a joyful, life-giving connection to Him and to enjoy a sense of purpose and fulfillment when you pray.
The lives of the disciples and other Christians who have been mightily used of God through the centuries to reach their world for Christ all testify to the necessity of prayer. They are examples of obedience to our Lord's command to pray.
