“Again I say unto you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven” ( Matt. 18:19 NKJV)
I love to prayer corporately with my Lydia Circle Christian and Professional Buinsess Women or my intercessory prayer team at church. When we are on one accord in agreement on the prayer focus, even if the tune varies, it is heavenly, powerful and delivering.
Corporate prayer is important to our Father because he wants believers to come together to pray. He wants to bring the church together to pray. He gives a promise of faithfulness and more to those who are willing to press their way to come together to pray on one accord in “agreement”. Praying women and men in agreement energizes our praying.
The scripture lets us know that a special power is promised through corporate prayer. God can do things through agreeing prayers of the church , just like we see in the book of Acts when the church came together, that He may not do( He is sovereign ) through individual efforts. Author Sue Curran wrote in “The Power of Agreement in Corporate Prayer” as follows:
The prayer ministry of the church accomplishes much. The prayer gathering does more than enlarge the channel through which God will bless and give victory to His people; it actually moves us into an entirely different realm of power.
...
We move in a realm in which results are calculated exponentially. We move from the realm of addition to that of multiplication. …Corporate praying is the key to exponential power in prayer. See Sue Curran “the Praying Church: Principles and Power of Corporate Praying”.
When every one is praying in “symphony” and is playing the same piece- a concert, according to the will of God , He moves to answer, deliever and heal.
