- There
are some kinds of release that only come by corporate prayer.
When the Body of Christ comes
together for the purpose of praying through the work and will
of God, things are bound and loosed in the unseen. For example
particularly entrenched demonic strongholds passed down through
family generations are overcome, usually through corporate prayer.
Revival comes because of
corporate prayer.
Many imprisoning yokes are broken
by corporate prayer.
- The problem
is that most churches have forgotten how to pray together. There
must be a willingness to fast at times, and to keep praying until
the thing is prayed through. A group coming together to pray
must have times when they are willing to stay and pray as long
as the Spirit leads.
- Other times,
there is a brief time together, a request is made, and there
is soon evidence of answered prayer.
The sweetest, deepest presence
of God comes because of corporate prayer. There cannot be deliberate
sin in the camp, and always, God has appointed someone to gather
the praying saints in and lead them.
In this busy and loud generation,
remember that there is still a place before the King, where His
people come together and are heard.
